That's wonderful news, I'm glad to hear the plant is being cultivated.
I hope the expedition is a success. When one of you talented Germans is
able to produce _T. peltatum_ in tissue culture be sure to drop me a
line, I've already reserved it a special place on my Ivory Coast taxa
windowsill, what, you mean everyone doesn't have one? Surely you jest!
:-)
