    Such a long inflorescence ! Is it pollinated by some extraterrestrial insects in space LOL ! And by the way the ducks are comparatively no match for the pattern on my friends shorts, it has all the patterns on playing cards and he wears them shamelessly in public in summer. If anyone looks at him, we pretend, we are not with him LOL.

    Hi,

    I think you have a unidentified pomatocalpa specie from the Philippines?

    It's similar to pomatocalpa bicolor but the flower structures are so different.

    Great specie from the Philippine forest...
