Those "in the know" pronounce that Mongo. And yes they are to die for (in my opinion) especially the Virgin Islands varieties that haven't had the "strings" bread out of them. If this sounds weird, you haven't had mango fiber filling every void between your teeth

Anthuriums!!!! Oooo! Feel free to post about those here:

These I imagine are better off with shade, but the others I suppose should enjoy their sunny situation. Then again, I have no first hand experience.

well, I am almost the opposite of that. Many orchids and a few Anthuriums, Amchomones, Dracontias, Alocasias, and even the Giant Amorphophallus titanum . I haven't got it to bloom yet though it weighs around 40 lbs in tuber form. Does anyone know the name of the large black flowered Anthurium from Ecuador?

As far as I know the black anthurium has no scientific binomial name yet. I haven't researched this one in a while though. Very cool that you reminded me of it.
Here is a link to that:Dragon Agro Products - Aroids, Carnivorous Plants, Orchids & Supplies
Also, I have been looking to find a small growing Amorpho for indoor culture. Do you know if there are any?
I was thinking along the lines of Amorpho odoratus, or A. yuloensis.
