Dear Eduardo, Joep, and David,

Aloha.

I knew someone would know more about this than I. I just took a look at Tom Croat's treatment of Philodendron subgenus Philodendron. What a widespread species! Central to South America . Croat does not list Bahia, but, obviously this species is widely distributed. Very ornamental on top of all that.

Aloha and mahalo,

Leland

=0ADear Alex,

This is Philodendron fragrantissimum, quite common in restingas and secondary forests.

Very best wishes,

Eduardo.
