Philodendron nangaritense (Philodendron sp. Fuzzy Petiole) - an endemic species from Ecuador, notable both for its uniquely shaped leaves and its "fuzzy" petioles covered with fine hairs, which change color as the plant matures. New leaves have pale green petioles, which gradually shift to shades of red and dark green as they mature.
The leaves appear in pale pink shades (when the plant is grown in strong light), with the underside pink or red, and as they mature they turn golden and later dark green. They also display a very interesting pattern that segments them.
Initially marketed as Philodendron sp. Fuzzy Petiole, it later received the species name Philodendron nangaritense. In the past, various suppliers mistakenly sold it under the name Philodendron aspartatum.
Growth habits: Creeping plant, but it can be trained on a trellis or moss pole.
Some leaves may show mechanical damage, but this does not affect the plant’s viability. Under optimal care, new leaves will develop normally.
Height including pot: 25-30 cm
