[Aroid-l] Philodendron cordatum

From: "criswick" <criswick at spiceisle.com> on 2008.08.16 at 14:02:08(18386) I have a Philodendron for so many years I can’tremember where I got it from. I have assumed it to be the same as the plantillustrated in Exotica under the name ‘Angra dos Reis”, a southBrazilian species. This plant is now thought to be identical to Philodendroncordatum. ‘Angra dos Reis’ means ‘King’sCove’ in Portuguese and is the name of a coastal town southwest of Rio de Janeiro. HTML +More Unlike the specimens belonging to Steve and Brian (seeSteve’s page on P. cordatum) http://www.exoticrainforest.com/Philodendron%20cordatum%20pc.html, mine has red spots on the centre vein of the upper surface of the leaf. Mine has yet to develop 100% adult form, because it has lain neglected in a potfor decades. This is no longer the case ! Please see attached pictures.
