Apparently according to the seller of this plant it comes from the backyard of a Florida aroid legend for which the VB plant is named. Bob could not recall the parentage of this plant so it will probably forever be a mystery, he was a generous grower which is how the seller came to obtain it on a visit to stay with him in Voral gables many years ago. 
So it’s nice to see a plant with a bit of personal history and a story behind it the grower lives on in his plant, and the story for this plant will be told in my garden honouring the grower!

Plants with stories are the best. This is a nice one, too.

The best plant you can have is a gifted plant, you always remember that story! If it was your grandmothers plant or gifted from another growers garden.

The seller I received it from has one of the best collections of plants I have ever seen, some of the most exotic and rare plants in Australia!
