  Philodendron ID please

Aroiders,

would someone know the spec of the Philodendron I found in a local garden centre?

I was quite puzzled since the leaf reminded me somehow of Sauromatum venosum.....

Curious, Bernhard.

Thanks to Betsy, Tony and LariAnn for the ID !

BTW, they ask 129 or 149 € (can't remember it exactly) for the plant what is unfortunately beyond my possibilities.... :-(
Anyway, a wonderful plant...

Happy growing,
Bernhard.

It is without a doubt Philodendron goeldii.

Now for some history press rewind... keep pressing. I worked at a
nursery named Fantastic Gardens from 1972-1977. We had a plant of
Thaumatophyllum spruceanum and was told it was one of a few in
cultivation. Our plant never flowered. I lusted for this plant and
about two years later had the joy of planting seed of what had now
become Philodendron goeldii. The seed probably came from Bob Wilson
at Las Cruces Botanical Gardens in Costa Rica. The specie itself is
stunning, The hybrids it has produced are amazing. Now that I'm all
stirred up I might bring one to the Aroid Show.

Thanks for that hint, Betsy !

As mentioned in my pm to you, I might wait some time if the garden centre reduces the price.

They often do so, when a plant stays too long; if they reduce it to 25 %, it is probably easier to get it that way instead of ordering it from the US - I am located in Lower Saxony, Germany......

Cheers, Bernhard.

I believe that this is already mentioned but it is Philodendron goeldii Bunting.

Yep, Bernard, I screwed up. It was Graziella Barroso who named that species. Thanks for the correction.
