I just acquired this as a new plant. Not much info in the ATP database concerning this plant except that it is endangered. What is the method for getting info into the database? There was information available on the internet. I found it in the Wikipedia and some on the original source on the container which was Altman Plants. I can only hope Altman Plants is growing their own plants and not collecting them as native plants. I might not have purchased this one if I'd read the ATP entry first. Being tagged as 'endangered' is a bit alarming.
