Hi hydrophyte and Feng yu zhe, glad you enjoyed the photographs. Below are some more recent photographs which I took:

I love the C. sp. 'Lingga 11' spathe.
Does that have a purple spathe type? I have seen pics of them and really like them.

Well done.

I love the pictures.
Just wish my crypts would start to bloom.

Hey illumbomb thanks for more great pictures!

Hey sorry to waylay your thread but I have a recent update form my emersed crypts tank, which has grown in pretty well:

This setup was inspired in part by your excellent biotope pictures. I haven't had anythin new bloom in this tank, just a couple of wendtii, ciliata and pontederiifolia, which have been flowering for me off and on for a while.

Do you know anybody going to the International Aroid Society Show in Miami in a few weeks?

I have never been, but I am really excited to go. I wondered if there will be any society members form SE Asia there.

C. striolata 'Sungai Assan' - an opened spathe in its natural habitat

C. sp. 'Singkep 6' - a collected spathe bloomed, the shape of the spathe looked quite like that of C. griffithii but not the "hairy" limb

C. sp. 'Lingga 17' - A blooming collected spathe of yet another specimen from the fantastic Lingga Island
