Dischidia book
I think you write up a lead page for a Dischidia book Eric....it doesn't have to be anything too serious. Are you up for it?
These should definitely all be linked together don't you think?

Dischidia book
I agree it would be a good idea. Will see what I can do . I really don't know much about them, got a few because they are different and just tied them to trees and let them grow.

Not a Dischidia
Had an email from someone who knows this plant and he tells me that it's not a Dischidia sp but is Raphidophpra cryptantha. So we have a positive ID on this one.He has corrected some of my other posts also.

I had to play around with the genus name and I got more info on Google.
