chain store treasures


I visited a few other Aroid collectors down in Townsville
and spied a very well grown Philodendron goeldii .
Imagine my surprise to find out it had come from the local hardware store ! 
Couldn't leave fast enough , and raced down to buy all they had left at the 
bargain price of $7 AU [only $3.50 US]
Of course it was not named correctly , a ridiculous
name like 'Fan Tan' or sumfinklikthat .

All other Aussie Aroiders be on the lookout for this bargain [if you like 
Philo's]

I know they will grow well for me , but I wonder how tolerant this sp. is of 
the cold ?.
