    Licuala dasyantha

    Re: Licuala radula About time this was corrected . Licuala dasyantha is reported to grow approx 2m . Does this mean it is acaulescent ? Or does it get a little stumpy trunk and just get a larger clump ?

    Dypsis faneva

    I recently collected seeds of this species from a plant growing locally . Called Clayton to verify info and he informed me it is actually Dypsis paludosa . And this correction was discussed on the palmtalk forum after John Dransfield visited Hawaii .

Even done a few hybrids as so many others are flowering .. put portora pollen onto portei and vica versa also put portei onto calidora . Heres a...

    Philodendron gigas

    Its the same plant Dean , seedlings are identical to your first pics . And a mate got a cutting from the base of the mature plant ,, it's the same as well .. mature leaves are not as velvety .

    Philodendron gigas

    Been back to Equatorial Exotics a few times over the last few weeks , and managed to get some better pictures of this Philo . Cant wait until the seedlings are released . Notice the ladder leaning up under the Philo , maybe there are more seeds coming . Think the host is a giant Cuban Royal .

    Alocasia zebrina

    Well done Matt , I have grown Alocasias from seed a few times . It is not common to get seeds , especially out of the tropics , so many people never see seed . Unless they go out of the way to pollinate their plants .

    Propagation of philodendron xanadu?

    I divided several offsets from large clumps in 8" pots .. It was a bit dificult , I had to hose of all media and untangle the roots to pull clumps apart . Tip cuttings can be taken of this cultivar , as long as you have 3 roots above the cut .. And this is an Australian cultivar , despite what...

    Philodendron gigas

    Very poor lighting , but you get an idea of the habit .. 6.30 pm and the sun was just starting to go down .. I will be going back soon a nd will try and get a better pic. along with some plants for myself . This does not seem to match the pic of Tom Croat and leaf on MoBoT .

    The Lowland Ficus dammaropsis

    Ari , I think Terry would have the only one in cultivation .. it is a massive tree , maybe 30m tall now . Foliage is so high up and crowded with other trees its very hard to get a good picture .. I took some about a year after the cyclone hit , and its not worth posting . I will visit and have a...

    The Lowland Ficus dammaropsis

    Seeds for this enormous tree were brought in from PNG many years ago .. sadly I only had a dinky little toy camera when I took the first lot of pics . It survived a recent severe cyclone , but is way to large to get a decent pic. Had to rope the branch to pull it down to get this pic. Flowers...
