Pictures for ANA.

[Native son]

These are mostly common plants without pictures in the Wiki. 1 Andreanum. 2 Acubaeolium 3 Blotched en Beauty. 4 Nobliss. 5 Aureo Maculatum Katoni. 6 Excellent 7 Peace. 8 Miami B. (not a good pic.) 9Chrysophyllum. This is very shaky ground for me, I love what you are trying to get done. I will follow up when I find more.

 

[annafl]

Thanks, Lamar! Check for these on the wiki later. Ana

 

[Native son]

Just a couple more. Miami Beauty 1. Caution Light 2. Gonzales 3.

 

[annafl]

Lamar, for some reason I'm having trouble getting your photos on the wiki. I don't know why. I've got an email in to Dean to see if he can figure it out. I've saved my work, but I don't know what I'm doing wrong. It's only happened with your photos. Hopefully he'll know.

[annafl]

Got it.

The Nobliss is a beauty. It looks different than Nobilisima, or am I confused?

It is a different plant, and misspelled......Nobilis....(.oh well.)

Ana,
I'm attaching some photos that may not be in any of the threads for the WIKI.

The first two are Arthur Howe
The next two are Warrenii aka Jensenii (or maybe the third and the last)
The next two are Amabile
The last one is Milky Way

I'll send more tomorrow.
Marie

Thanks so much, Marie! Yes, those are needed. I love the Warrenii/Jensenii. I have an unknown that resembles Arthur Howe, but I think it's still too small to tell for sure. Now I have something to look at as it gets larger. You'll see these later tonight.

I do think that one Excellent, looks like Gloriosum Superbum. Ray set me straight on the 2. Ray?

Scott - I am in agreement with you. I may recall that the "true" Gloriosum Superbum has a pronounced oak leaf shape. I think Randy posted a photo(s) of his "true" Gloriosum Superbum. Perhaps he would be kind enough to repost the photo(s) here for comparison.

 

[ScotTi]

Here is my plant purchased as Excellent later ID'd as Gloriosum Superbum by Ray. I believe he said Excellent has no red vein down the center of the leaf and Excellent has a green leaf stem.

​

BTW This is the same plant now older that Brenda put in the Wiki for G. Superbum.

 

[annafl]

I'm a little confused. Are you saying the second wiki Excellent belongs in G. Superbum?

Just looked at the Wiki photos for Excellent. The photo from Lamar looks to be G. Superbum.

I think there's a lot of confusion about these plants (Excellent, Gloriosa Superbum and Inca) that perhaps we can resolve at the next croton get together by seeing them all in person. I don't think the plant in question is either Excellent or Gloriosa Superbum. However, it is being brought up from South America as Excellent which adds to the confusion because growers are selling it as Excellent. It was sold at one of our auctions as Inca and I think we agreed then that it was not Inca. It's only been around for about 3 years and it's very different from my Gloria Superba which Ray identified many years ago (primarily red coloring and the plant in question goes to deep orange. It may need an entirely new name. I've been labeling my plants as Excellent/Inca? Perhaps I sould now label them Excellent/Inca/Gloriosa Superbum? until we can settle on what to call it.

 

[annafl]

Thank-you all for checking on the entries. I will remove it for now until this is settled. Keep checking, please!

 

[Jerry Shilling]

This is what I have for Inca. I was told that the high shoulders are what to look for.
