Mark,

I just found my list of Dan Hinkley's collections from China in 1996.
The details on DJHC445 are:

445     Arisaema sp. aff. franchetianum Tiger Leaping Gorge Town
Yunnan Province P       "Trifoliage, mid leaflet larger to 10"" long,
10"" wide, ovoid, ovate, petiole to 1.5"", in rocky crevices.  Fruit
on recurved pedicels.  4 bulbs collected."   10/20/96        "7,300
ft.  N. 27 19.919, E. 99 59.147"


So, it's hard to say if this is the true franchetianum or fargesii
without seeing the actual plant. From this description it could be
either one.
