  Re: [Aroid-l] Philodendron squamiferum bristles?

Jude,

Ordinarily the pubescens are pretty long and prominent.=C2=A0The photos you've seen online are not tricks of photography. There is a plant called Philodendron Florida (possible hybrid of=C2=A0P. squamiferum) which has=C2=A0a similar leaf shape to Philodendron squamiferum and has rough petioles. Do you have photos of your plants in question?

Is there some variation in P. squamiferum and its bristles?
I have some plants that were sold as P. squamiferum, and the petioles closer to the leaves are red, and rough, like sandpaper, but I don't see actual bristly hairs (yet?) Do they develop over time? Or, is a super zoom kind of fancy shmancy camera being used to show the bristles clearly on google images?
Best, Jude
