I have seen this curved, narrow-tipped  spadix form quite often in the wi=ld.
I've never really kept track of where I've seen it.  Will take a look in =the
garden to see if I have any plants with location information.  The spadix=on
this form is the same length as you would find on triphyllum and not the
elongated spadix that is found on dracontium.  I've never seen a dark for=m
of this plant as is found in triphyllum triphyllum.
