Since the original material of Myrmephytum naumannii is incomplete and the original description is also rather unclear, I can only assume that this is Myrmephytum naumannii. A beautiful species that is very rare in cultivation and has never been offered commercially.

Extremely rare in culture. Offered for the first time in the trade. New introduction! An extremely interesting species. Lowland epiphyte. The leaves can reach a length of up to 50 cm. Some herbarium records bear the name Myrmedoma (=Myrmephytum) longissima, but it seems never to have been validly described and published.

An extremely interesting Myrmephytum species.The plants are morphologically more similar to Myrmecodia. With their almost black tubers and blue flowers, these plants are extremely attractive. Unfortunately, only a few rather small seedlings are available. 

A very nice species! It has a dark brown caudex and brown stems that form a nice contrast to the light green leaves, blue flowers and red berries. Propagated through seeds. Only very few young plants available!An easy but slow grower under lowland conditions! I have plants that produce red fruit and other that produce orange fruit. I am not sure yet if all seedlings originating from red fruit again produce red fruit and sseedlings from orange fruit again produce orange fruit but I decided to offer them separately.

Some herbarium specimens bear the name Myrmedoma (=Myrmephytum) longissima, but it appears never to have been validly described and published.The Waigeo form has much longer "cucumber-shaped" caudices and extremely narrow leaves.
