Description:
Summary[edit] Description: English: Philodendron xanadu, detail of leaves, growing in a clump outside a business premises in Walls Rd, Penrose, Auckland, New Zealand. The clump is about 1.5 metres tall and individual leaves are about 40cm long or more. The clump is long established and is over 2 metres wide. Despite claims that P xanadu is a natural "sport" of P bipinnatifidum or P selloum, the species Philodendron xanadu exists in nature and was being grown well before the popularisation of the plant via tissue culture. This easily grown philodendron makes a dramatic, tropical statement in the landscape. The deeply divided, usually drooping, dark grey-green leaves grow up to 18 inches long and 8 to 12 inches wide, appearing on long, smooth petioles. Each leaf is divided into 15 to 20 lobes. The flower is not showy. Date: 8 November 2014, 14:23:43. Source: Own work. Author: Piwaiwaka.
