So, what other plant families are you all into?
Forexample, I am a fledgling aroid enthusiast.
Aroids all belong to the family Araceae.
Here are some pics of my little collection.
THis is Pistia stratoites, a water lettuce.



This is an anthurium which I have not been able to bloom yet. Its probably some sort of hybrid.


The big light green plant here is a Syngonium podophylum. This will never bloom on me unless I let it grow wild. Until then it will forever be in its immature state. I like it cuase it grows like a weed, under wet or dry conditions, or even soiles conditions.

This one is Agloeanema commutatum. It blooms little white-greenish flowers that looks just like anthurium flowers, in the summer time. Then it produces berries that through the year change color from green to vibrant orange, to red. THen I plant them and I get new plantlets!

THis is an Anubias barterii. Very popular in the aquarium trade. I like it cuase its in Aroid and give those distinctive Aroid blooms:




Here is another Anthurium Hybrid I got, no explanation necessary





These lance shaped leaves are known as Cryptocorynes. I have two species here. Like the Anubias, they are popular among aquarists, but again, I like them cause they are Aroids. I haven't gotten them to bloom yet, but soon





THis is a Philodendron micans, very beautiful leaves. Its called devils vine? But its a slow grower. Don't know If I can ever get it to bloom or not.


Up until last month, I had this one, but I killed it.
Zantedeschia tubers, Calla Lilly??

ANyhow, I have more such as Anthurium clarinerum, Syngonium rayii, Peltandra virginica, Anubias coffeefolia, Anubias frazeri, and Anubias nana.
I was also treated to seeing a possibly new species,
though mistreated it maybe as it has come straight from the jungle.
Dracontium sperlingi
