We've all been posting shots of the new EE's we've received in the last months.
How are they doing for you?
Successes....Failures?
Here's a site where I placed shots this morning.
There are just too many shots for here.
There are a few none newbies or non-aroids but all Tropicals.
If loading time is a problem I'll post here.

I just got new ones, they came last week. When they grow a bit, I'll take a picture.
Ric I have a picture from the aroid newsletter of when they discovered this species. The pic show a plant about 12 ft tall with 4 ft leaves. Its a big grower I would compare it to Sarian.
Sorry :)Donna it's Passiflora morifola. The flower is about 1" across.
Blooms for months and fruits quite heavily.
My neighbor agrees w/ a post I saw earlier.
It tastes like dirt.
Course I didn't tell him till after..........lol
Thanks Brian.
Any cultural tips?
I've heard they are a bit water sensitive when young.
I am over-wintering in the Plantroom.
House temps, sun and Halogen Lighting.
I AM having one problem which may just be the switch from FL to here.
The stem grows faster than outer lobes of the leaf are released.
The stem bowed so far it actually snapped under the pressure.
I manually released the leaf and pushed the broken stem together.
The sticky sap actually glued it back together.
Other than a scar it appears fine.
I've had this happen w/ A. cuprea too.
Suggestions?
