Acronia ascera
Synonym Pleurothallis ascera. Publish by Luer & R. Escobar in 1996. A cool growing medium sized epiphyte from Costa Rica to Colombia at approximately 4250 feet (1300 meters). This species has leaves up to 5-6" and flowers are up to 1" fully opened. The flowers emerge from the base of the leaf from a papery sheath in winter. The mature leaves are very attractive so it makes a nice specimen when not in flower.
I have this plant mounted on cork and I keep it moist at all times. It gets about 500 foot candles of light and is 70F/55F in winter and 85F/60F in the summer. It could probably be kept a bit cooler in the winter and may need more shade in the summer.

Alocasia reversa 'Dewey's Reversa'
2 1/2 inch pot. A dwarf variety of Alocasia, the name reversa was given to this plant because the darker shade of color along the midrib and nerves of the leaf is the reverse of what is usual in the genus. The leaf is thick with deep blue-green zones spreading out from the midrib to about half of the area of the upper surface of the leaf. The remaining area of the upper surface is ashen-blue. The dark blue-green zone around the midrib spreads out thinly towards the margins as an extension of the primary veins. The tube of the inflorescence is yellowish-green while the blade of the spathe is green shading to white and rose-burgundy at the margins. Mature leaves are typically 6-9 inches long by 2-5 inches wide.

Asplenium bulbiferum
An Australian fern which loves warmth and humidity. It favors sites on moist creek banks and on the treefern trunks. In this area, it is invariably associated with flowing water, close to permanent creeks and almost always with waterfalls, sometimes growing right under them. The correlation between fern and habitat is so reliable here that we have never found a waterfall in the mountains without also finding A. bulbiferum growing nearby.
Most likely too large for all but the largest of terrariums

Hydnophytum formicarum from Duke Medium Form
There are several forms of Hydnophytum formicarum being grown in the USA. This is a young plant of a medium sized form of Hydnophytum formicarum that can be traced back to a plant in the collection at Duke University, not the largest form whose caudex can get over two feet in diameter.. The plants top out at about 12 to 18 inches tall with a 5 or 6 inch diameter caudex. Once mature the plant is in almost constant flower and fruit mode. The caudex is intricately etched with ridges – very different looking from the more smooth caudex of the Horne form or the form from Singapore.

|
|
Hydnophytum formicarum from Singapore
This species has a great caudex - chocolate brown color, mostly smooth but with some low ridges My material of this species can be traced back to seeds off a plant on a fallen branch in the Central Water Catchment in Singapore.
|
|
|
|
Hydnophytum formicarum Small Form
The plant can be traced back to a collection circulating in some European botanical gardens.
There are several forms of Hydnophytum formicarum being grown in the USA. This is the smallest form. At maturity the caudex will be about 4 inches across and the plant will be less than a foot tall. This plant is suitable for culture in a terrarium.

Hydnophytum moseleyanum
No provenance for this plant. Acquired 3/12/2016 from eBay seller littlegardeninthecountry.

Hydnophytum papuanum
Hydnophytum moseleyanum is a well-known, widespread and variable lowland species in the islands of Southeast Asia. A closely related species is Hydnophytum papuanum. It has smaller leaves than H. moseleyanum that often have curled edges. The caudex tends to have a rougher texture and conical shape. The plant I am offering today can be traced back to a plant at the Marie Selby Botanical Garden, their accession #1988-0077. There is considerable speculation that H. papuanum will get lumped into H. moseleyanum in the coming revision of the genus Hydnophytum.

Hydnophytum puffii
Purchased from Charles Alford, originally obtained by him from Frank Omilian. Here's what he says about it on his site
Biopower PLants - Hydnophytums
"This plant sometimes goes by the unpublished name of Hydnophytum perangustum. Unusual leaves. Good to grow if you are short on growing space because it stays compact and the caudex stays small. It grows as an epiphyte on swamp trees on Borneo. My material can be traced back to accession # 95007 at the Leiden Botanical Garden in the Netherlands. According to a note published on Facebook in January 2016 by D. Rowe “It was collected by Art Vogel then curator at the Leiden Botanical Garden, Netherlands, from a heath forest near Nabawan in December 1995. Nabawan is a small town in central Sabah south of Kota Kinabalu on Borneo Island.” Photographed here is a 14 year old seed grown plant in a 4 inch pot."
Formerly know as Hydnophytum 'Needle Leaf'

Myrmecodia platytyrea "Mossman Gorge, AU"
Seeds under this name came out of Australia a number of years ago and the plants have attracted a serious amount of interest and discussion because they differ from the typical M. platytyrea in several very noticeable ways. Specifically the leaves are fairly succulent (regular platytyrea leaves are not) and the arrangement of the clypeoli is significantly different (not a continuous line of gaps between them as in regular platytyrea).

Myrmecodia platytyrea, unusual ant-plant, with provenance, Tropiflora 2998
Myrmecodia platytyrea is native to the island of New Guinea and the Cape York area of Australia. The species name platytyrea is often misspelled – this is the correct spelling*. The key features that make me certain of this identification are the long flowers (16 to 18 mm) and the way the leaf bases (clypeoli) line up like gently twisting kernels on a corn cob on the stem of adult plants. In habitat adult plants often hang straight down from tree branches!

Myrmecodia species with pink fruit
This is a Myrmecodia that is being grown worldwide but no one knows what species it is so it is in the trade as “Myrmecodia species with pink fruit”. The fruits can actually be a little on the red side of pink, but the color is always strikingly different than that of other Myrmecodias which usually have orangish fruits. (Recently some people have championed the opinion that this plant is actually Myrmecodia tuberosa ‘papuana’ from Australia. I am not convinced yet but agree that this is a possibility)
Another reason it is sought after is that it is probably the spiniest Myrmecodia in cultivation. Well grown plants will even have some stellate spines on the stems. The plants can get fairly large and they tend to grow somewhat sideways in the pot.

Myrmecodia tuberosa 'armata'
When Drs. Huxley and Jebb revised the genus in 1993 they lumped what had been 22 of those separately described species into one species - Myrmecodia tuberosa. This made M. tuberosa a widespread, highly variable species.
They refer to the formerly separate species as variants of Myrmecodia tuberosa and they notate them with single quote marks like this: Myrmecodia tuberosa ‘armata’
The lumped species Myrmecodia armata was itself a widespread and variable species. It grows from Vietnam south thru Malaysia, Singapore, Sumatra Java and Borneo. In spite of the name “armata” that would imply a highly spined plant most plants have rather sparse, scattered spination.
Myrmecodia tuberosa ‘armata’ is rarely offered for sale in the US. This particular plant can be traced back to material at the Atlanta Botanical Garden (ABG 1990-1053) with collection data noted as “Malaya” - an area where the variant ‘armata’ is from.

Myrmecodia tuberosa 'dahlii'
This is NOT one of the usual forms of M. tuberosa. This one has wavy margins on the leaves as they get older and comes from the eastern part of Myrmecodia’s home range. These plants are now referred to as Myrmecodia tuberosa ‘dahlii' if they come from the island of New Britain as this one does. (Nearby islands have similar species like Myrmecodia tuberosa 'salomonensis' from the Solomon Islands.)
The really interesting thing about these plants is that they make some thick, rubbery roots that anchor the plant to the tree trunk and branches - often with the plant hanging pendulously by these roots in nature. Sometimes in habitat the roots are 12 to 18 inches long! I have mounted some of these plants hanging by their roots and it makes for a very interesting presentation. The thick rubbery roots form when the plant is about the size that would require it to be growing in a 4 inch pot.

Myrmephytum species with yellow fruit from the Philippines
There are 5 genera of Rubiaceous ant-plants: The two most cultivated and well know are Hydnophytum and Myrmecodia. Two others, Anthorrhiza and Squamellaria, are not in cultivation. This genus, Myrmephytum, is very rare in cultivation. One species, Myrmephytum beccarii, was offered on eBay back in about 2008
This species was offered on eBay for the first time ever last year. It is from the Philippines and is easily distinguished from Myrmephytum beccarii (red fruits) by its yellow fruits.
All the Myrmephytums have fleshy purplish-brown bracts and star-like flowers with blue petals that fade gradually to white

Peperomia tristachya
Misidentified as Peperomia polybotrya. This species has leaves that can reach 4" accross and maybe more. Let dry between watering. Here is the info from Guido Matheiu on this species.
As you can see in the illustrations which came with the first descriptions in 1815 (http://www.peperomia.net/repertory.asp), shape and size of the leaf blades of P. tristachya and P. polybotrya are quite similar. P. polybotrya shows however much longer petioles. But both species differ markedly in the inflorescences. In P. tristachya the number of spadices in the compound inflorescence is limited. Usually there are (1-) 3 (-5) (hence the epithet 'tri'-stachya). The rachis is rather thick and bright white in P. tristachya. In P. polybotrya on the contrary there is a large number of spadices in the compound inflorescence. The individual rachis is thinner and lacks the bright white colour. Many P. tristachya plants are wrongly labeled 'P. polybotrya', but I never saw the latter in the trade.

Pleurothallis ruscifolia
Publish by Robert Brown in 1813. A cool to warm growing medium sized epiphyte and lithophyte A cool to hot growing medium sized epiphyte found throughout Central and South America as well as the Caribbean fro 130 feet (40 meters) to 6550 feet (200 meters). This species has leaves up to 6-8" and flowers are up to 1/4" fully opened. The flowers emerge in clusters of many per leaf from the base of the leaf from a papery sheath in winter.
I have this plant mounted on cork and I keep it moist at all times. It gets about 500 foot candles of light and is 70F/55F in winter and 85F/60F in the summer. It could probably be kept a bit cooler in the winter and may need more shade in the summer.

No Longer in collection
I have no idea where I got this plant. What I do know is that what I have now was left after the main plant was destroyed in 2005. I thought it was baccifera but now I'm not so sure. More study needed.
It has been suggested that this may be R floccosa subsp. tucumanensis but it doesn't exactly match that either. It is definitely not one of the baccifers ssp so I have changed the name. It also matches some of the dissimilis sub species except for the branches. R dissimilis always seems to have some angles on the branches and are never just smooth and round.

Rhipsalis campos-portoana
No Longer in collection
I bought this plant at Lowes. It is an Exotic Angel plant and of course no tag. While it looks similar to teres subsp heteroclada I do not believe that is the case. The flowers are very unusual and the petals are not re-curved at all so far. The stems on the plant are about 2mm but the flowers are pretty large at 2 cm from the base to the tip. I'm pretty sure that this is Rhipsalis campos-portoana or Rhipsalis burchellii but I will wait for the berry which should be orange for campos-portoana or red for burchellii. R campos-portoana is not common in cultivation while R burchellii is in Florida where the plant originated.
Definitely R campos portoana after reviewing the flower which never opens widely and has a reddish center which R burchellii does not. I have another plant that came from EA that looks like the one I lost. I suspect t's the same.

Rhipsalis capilliformis
I bought this at Lowes and it's an EA plant that was labeled Rhipsalis capilliformis.

So I will leave this with how EA labeled it until I see flowers. I only have a tiny piece struggling to hold on

Considered a synonym of R cuneata.
I really like this plant once it becomes pendant. Grows well for me.I purchased cuttings from Tropiflora in 2004. I have read that R occidentalis is rare in cutlivation so I'm not sure about the name. Ordered a new one of these from an eBay seller. Pictures look very much like my old plant and not like R cuneata

Rhipsalis pacheco-leonis (Laurey)
A species similar to Rhipsalis paradoxa and was even considered a dwarf form of that species for some time. Native to semi arid scrub forest of the restinga in northeastern Rio de Janeiro state of Brazil where it grows both as an epiphyte and lithophyte in sunny locations. The stems are slender with the familiar 'chain link' look of paradoxa but not as pronounced. Flowers and subsequent fruits are red. Tropiflora 8742
