Eric
There definitely are variegated cultivars of the Philodendron self
heading type you called "selloum". This is not a valid name and has been
reduced to synonomy under Philodendron bipinnatifidum. Certainly Graf's
Exotica shows some, but like you I have never seen one in the flesh out
here in Australia. I really want one too! Thought you would have been able
to find some in Florida.
Cheers
Neil

Hello! While on a tip to California went to Dave Gordon's house. He had a
yellow spotted Philodendron selloum. It was not the best variegation but it
did have some discoloring in the leafs. He wanted an unbelievable about of
money for a cutting over a 1000.00 I believe. That is the only one I have
ever heard of or have seen. Would love to know if their are others?

Hi everybody,
I have been looking for a varigated P. selloum for a long time and actually
have never seen
one here in South Africa. If you find some count me in please.
Best Regards
Peter

Eric:

We quite often have Philodendrons Cultivars from tissue culture that
sport out and become variegated to one degree or other. However,
personally I do not grow P. bipinnatifidum and have not seen any sports
of that species. I shall ask around to some of the other nurseries and
see if anyone who grows large quantites of this plant has come accross
any variegated forms of this one.
I don't know of anyone who is growing large quantities of the
Arborescent Type Philos. Don't hold your breathe waiting for a positive
response.
