PS: From reading other posts, see you collect(ed) studied reptiles? My wife is the biggest frog enthusiast I believe lives on earth. My house full or chirping crickets to feed them, she constantly studies, even has microscope for disease finding uses. She tells me the song of the cricket I should appreciate, they are 'good luck in the house!' I am glad I do like the sounds of nature, or I could not sleep!
Treat yourself to an early Christmas/Anniversary/Birthday Present(hey whatever excuse you can pile in) and get either the AeAe or a Variegated Kluay Nam Wah.

I am sure you know the AeAe, growing it is a joy enough though it gets big.
Coming to the Variegated Kluay Nam Wah, when planted in a pot, it's won't get bigger than 5ft p-stem height. You can still take it in for winter. Now coming to the fruits...yum...so very buttery when eaten fully ripen or simmered in butter. The only thing is the variegation is not as white as the AeAe.

Yea Gino, I was in the reptile trade before but no more, I use to go frogging whenever it rains and most of the time the catch is good. We have many endemic species here. Ask your wife which is the biggest frog in the world? I am not testing her but I am interested from her point of view!

Here's a pix of my plant.
