Tiny Dancers IS a cutie! I'll keep my eye out for it, too. LariAnn, thx for reassuring me that these varieties are patent protected... a good thing, with all the work that goes into them! I'm impressed that you've got a backlog of "worthy" varieties. Thumbs up

Hurray! Ordered 'Tiny Dancers' from LariAnn at Aroidia Research ... can't wait for that cutie; it will make a nice addition to the little Atrium in the front of our house!

In the last few weeks I've had to rebuild/reinstall my entire Aroidia website due to a series of mishaps by my webhost. I have since added some new pages and will add more now that I'm retired, and I have everything backed up so this webhost problem will not mess me up again. I'm also considering mirroring my entire website at a different host so I don't go offline even if one host messes up.

LariAnn said:OK, folks, here's a new one. You could call this a "blackstem Portora" but that wouldn't be accurate because it does not have any A. odora genes in it. This plant is a cross between my Borneo Tsunami Waves (A. macrorrhizos 'Borneo Giant' x A. portei) and the black petioled variety of A. macrorrhizos. Note the size of the plant vs. the size of the pot.Thumb of 2010-09-29/LariAnn/d436c6

BorntoRaiseCanna, the bottom plant in your post is my Alocasia "Regal Shields", a patented hybrid of A. odora and A. reginula.
