Philodendron bipennifolium variegata rare houseplants

A very rare and difficult to source Philodendron bipennifolium variegata is a variegated variety of the commonly named 'Fiddle-leaf' or 'Horsehead', Philodendron bipennifolium Schott. Variegation patterns are very different on every single leaf. It is a hemiepiphyte. Petiole of the lower leaf sheathed up to halfway, petiole of upper leaves terete. Blades are thinly coriaceous, various; lower leaf oblong, slightly cordate at the base, upper leaves panduriform, uppermost leaf hastate-3-5-lobed or 3-5-lobed bipenniform [bipinnate]; posterior lobe or segment oblong, separated by a deep, open sinus, middle lobe obtusely triangular, terminal lobe oblong-lanceolate or oblong-elliptic,  apex  long-cuspidate. Midrib rather thick, posterior rib disappearing towards the apex, shortly denuded in the sinus, 3-4 primary lateral veins on each side of the midrib emerging in the middle lobe, patent; 2-3 ascending in the terminal lobe.

 

form the Modern Latin genus name Philodendron (Schott, 1830), form Greek philodendron, neuter of philodendrons "loving trees," form philo- "loving" (see philo-) + dendron "tree" (form PIE *der-drew-, form root *deru- "to be firm, solid, steadfast," also forming words for "wood, tree"). The plant so called because it clings to trees.
