      What Zones do these grow in. As I quickly looked around, they seem like house plants for me, I guess. What a collection.

      They will vary from fully hardy in the UK to indoors only. Just posted as inspiration to others (knew that Sal would like it!).

      You and me both, but where would we keep them?

      last year took one back from Thailand , never managed to ID , look like a small calocasia but was a climber , unfortunatly one of the first plants to die , Thai plants really don`t like the UK weather , but still wonder if there is a hady version of it.

      I do like these plants, but apart from the usual Philodendrons or Monstera I've not grown many.
      I think you need jungle conditions for them to thrive.:)
