Wow! That is really neat! First time I have ever seen one as well. Is it a small plant?

Hi DJ,

Well, the pbulbs are not big (6cm high), but the leaves (in this Xyl.) are extra-long (>40cm); my two other Xylobiums (brachystachium and colleyi) have "default" leaves (20cm)

I've never seen this genus before. Looks quite nice.
