That photo of the P. stenolobum x P. bipinnatifidum
(selloum) looks very similar to a Philodendron a few
south FL nurseries have sold, Philodendron 'Soledad'
Anyone familiar with this Philodendron? We have
several growing here and they look very similar. They
are hardier than P. stenolobum, almost as hardy as P.
bipinnatifidum. Here is a photo of one here at Leu
Gardens;

Hi,
What about these two pages from Aroidia Research?
http://aroidiaresearch.org/willoum.htm
http://aroidiaresearch.org/affanta.htm
The plant for sale looks more like the 'P. x African
Fantasy' than the 'P. x willoum,' which Aroidia
Research says is the hybrid between P. stenolobum
and
P. selloum.
