they are plants that like a humid atmosphere, so pay attention to their watering neither too much (with the risk of rotting) nor not enough (with the risk of desiccation) the second seem to be a hydnophytum moseleyanum ( old name H.papuanum)

your myrmecodia ( may be a beccarii) seem in good shape. it is a plant from garden center ?

have you a picture? what are yours growing conditions ?

excellent 🤩 for mine a S.imberbis ( but also all my rubiaceae) I use now tree fern root in plate. I put my plant on the plate which is horizontal, with a little living sphagnum moss around it, so that it takes root well, then I hang it on the edge of my terra. when the plate is dry I saturate it with rainwater for fertilizer I use NPK : 13-19-19 commonly and some times 25-5-5 (exceptionally) FRANK how old is your plant ? you had it initially with flowers and drupe?

Bonjour spine seem to be a modified adventitious roots how in culture can we go from root to spine, having a drier atmosphere can be ? jeff

3 lobes , the taxon seems to have 5 or 6 ?

merci

Bonjour it is your M.longissimum ?

Bonjour how do you water them ? jeff

Bonjour may be some infos on the climat of this area 😉

Bonjour may be some infos on the climat of this area 😉

Bonjour have you tried this method of cultivation jeff

beautiful work, a pity that we can not compare the various pollen of various genus 😉

Bonjour rarely cleistogamous and sometimes heterostylous . may be selfpollinate , pollinate by the ant although ants are ' piétre'( in french I can not find the right word in English)pollinator , may be also by the wind or other critters where did you get your 'pulvinata' ? this label Myrmecodia cf pulvinata for my part is not correct, rather cf tuberosa 'pulvinata', pulvinata according to Huxley and JEBB is part of tuberosa, it is not a species apart ,or simply Myrmecodia sp ,when you are not sure of his determination

Bonjour shame no picture of this holotype of the basionym. jeff

Bonjour see here a very good document on this genus squamellaria https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0151317 jeff

DERRICK you just put the URL of a drawing, with the imperfections that entails, you do not have a picture of the flower
