Sean, should we make a package for you?

Hello Stephan, how are you? Vienna? That sounds like an interesting place to have the meetings. I almost expect the next meetings to be in Denmark, though you never know.

Jan has my import permit and knows how to ship to me. If you do make a package for me the means of conveyance are in place.

Jim, a member of my home club, is attending the meetings this year. I know he is hoping to bring some plants home with him. He posts here as DelawareJim. I have to remind him that he is supposed to do a talk at the meetings.

I've been asked to organize the next meeting. I hope to find a place for the meeting in or near the city.
There will be some plants to share in Nordwijk.
Next year I have to do a talk, because I'll visit Sarawak in November.

That's Great Stephan, thank you for the scoop. I will have to start looking into travel plans to Vienna. I have no doubts that there will be plants in Nordwijk after seeing what was at the meeting last time. What are you going to Sarawak for? Research or holiday or buisness?

Stephan K.

I'll visit Sarawak for holiday and of course some research (Crypts and Pangio).

I'm looking forward to living vicariously through your trip to Sarawak Stephan...

I must say - nice looking plant. Huge spathe!

Compared to C. usteriana the plant is actually small. It is the size of a medium C. wendtii, but grows as slowly as a C. usteriana. The flower is about 8 inches tall, an usteriana flower will get 20 inches tall to reach out of a 75 gallon aquarium.
