International Aroid Society

HiFerenc,

Isuspect that this is one of the entire-leaved Syngonium species, perhapsS. chiapense or S. macrophyllum. When you cut a stem or leaf, idthere copiuous milky sap?

Verybest

Pete

Subject: [Aroid-l] Philodendron "SCH=D6NBRUNNER HYBRID"

Hello,

Ihave a house plant that I would like to be identified, if possible. It is aclimbing aroid and looks like the plant offered in the german ebay as Philodendron "SCH=D6NBRUNNER HYBRID". Its leaf venation doesnot look like that of a Philodendron. It has collective veins (at least I thinkso) like Anthuriums. However, it has no geniculum at the junction of thepetiole and the leaf blade. The upper side of its leaves is slightly velvety.The upper side of the older leaves is dark green, the lower side is lightergreen. The younger leaves are bicolorous with darker and lighter green areas asif it would have been sick, but it is not the case. As the leaves mature, theupper surface becomes uniformly dark green. The leaves are about as large as aman's hand (about 18 cm x 11 cm). It hasn't flowered for me, so I can't sayanything about the inflorescence. I have taken some photos of it (attached).

Is it simply an unknown hybrid? Or somethingelse?
