Here is a pic of one of the plants. I did not think it was a hybrid due to it self pollinating. I have done a few hybrids and all seem to be less likely to self pollinate. I have a hard time getting to my F2 hybrids. It does look similar to Mac in many ways and when young are very hard to tell apart. But once it gets larger you can see a rippling effect in the leaves. I first saw this plant 9 years ago in florida. I am not sure were it was collected I dont know anyone who has collected it all seem to have originated out of Florida? Could it be a odora hybrid? I dont know many forms that can reach this size.

I will try to keep my questions to a minimal 1 per day LOL. I am very glad your here though it would be nice to finally get some answers to some very of these old questions.
