Very interesting species. The caudex bears numerous undivided spines. The pink-coloured berries are striking. Unfortunately, the geographical origin of the species is unclear, as I obtained my mother plants from a botanical collection without precise information.
A beautiful species from Dinagat, an offshore island off Mindanao. The caudex is very darkly coloured in good light and is somewhat reminiscent of Myrmecodia tuberosa 'bullosa'.
Very interesting species with lanceolate leaves. It often grows as a terrestrial in bog landscapes in the Wissel Lakes area around Waghete and Enerotali in the highlands of Irian Jaya..
A very beautiful lowland species from Milne Bay, Papua New Guinea.
The leaves and leaf stalks indicate a relationship with Myrmecodia alata. However, this species has white flowers.
Myrmecodia bullosa was reduced to a form of M. tuberosa by Huxley & Jebb in 1993. I consider this to be unjustified and consider Myrmecodia bullosa to be a good, clearly defined species. The species is characterised by the almost complete absence of spines and the almost foam-like surface structure with numerous air inlets. For my taste, Myrmecodia bullosa is one of the most beautiful lowland species.
Only few seedlings available!Unlike most other species of Myrmecodia, the M- horrida complex is characterized by ant-channels not only in the caudex but also ranging through the shoot.A wonderful species!
Interesting highland species from the Baliem high valley. Original location is near a salt spring. The caudex is black. The spines are asymmetrically distributed.
