RE: [Aroid-l] Philodendron imbe


To me, your plant looks like P. sagittifolium, from Mexico. Not the wild type, but a variegated form. Check on it.

Very best wishes,

Dear Michael,

Taxonomically, Philodendron imbe may prove to be a name so deeply
imbedded in confusion that this name should not be used anymore. Anyhow, at
least in Brazil, the material usually called P. imbe is a cultivar with no
origin defined that can produce a large quantity of offshoots and it never
flowers around here. It has sagittate leaves with clearer nerves and grows
so massively that can be used as a dense shrub.

Very best wishes,


Eduardo.
