6″ Philodendron Paraiso Verde

“Green paradise” is what this Philodendron’s name means. Like a jungly Garden of Eden populated with fabulous, myriad, jewel-colored and fantastic plants of all kinds. Another of the rapidly expanding group of exciting Philodendron hybrids appearing in the plant world lately. Lovely and quirky variegation is the appeal here as well as improbably long and narrow leaves. Lance-shaped, sometimes arrowhead-shaped and sometimes horsehead-shaped foliage is unpredictably speckled and washed in pale, lemony-limey yellow, milky green, emerald green and creamy whites. Look closely and discern the thinnest red edge to some of the leaves. A climber, this one, loving support for those ever-thickening stems and pendulous leaves. It’s not clear how tall this newcomer can grow, reports from 15″ to 10′ have been thrown out there, but with the proper support and love, who’s to stop it? You’ll love all those melancholy leafy faces looking at you.
