Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Philodendron (Species Panama Large leaves) This species came to me from an older collector who had collected several times in Panama during the 50 and 60s. He believed it came from one of his trips. It is a great plant with large green hastate leaves up to 2 feet or larger long and about 1 foot wide. I have sent photos of the plant to a few friends and botanist and have yet to get a positive ID for the plant. It may be Philodendron sagittifolium if so it is different than the other forms of this species I have by having much wider leaves. Hopefully I will get some help soon to put a good name to this great plant. Shipping will be 18.00 for the plant unless in Hawaii CA WA an extra shipping rate may need to be added. Plant is well rooted in a 6 inch pot and should be potted up in something larger and allowed to climb. Foliage: Very large hastate green leaves . Flowers: Green spath white interior Height: Climber
