  Re: [Aroid-l] Philodendron squamiferum bristles?

Hi Zach,
In the link - showing the variegated Florida Beauty, if you scroll down to a set of several pictures with P. squamiferum in the upper left corner - that's the one I'm referring to. Those look like red petioles, with a more sandpapery texture?

Jude,

I don=E2=80=99t see any photos on Steve=E2=80=99s site of a squamiferum with sandpapery petioles. Which photo are you referring to?

Zach,
Thank you for that. I also looked at his photo of P. squamiferum which looks exactly the same, without the variegation. (His photo shows the same sandpapery texture, versus hairs.) Hmmmm....

Jude,

That looks like a good match for Florida Beauty, which Steve Lucas discussed on his webpage:

Hi Zach,
Thanks for your input! Florida / Florida Beauty doesn't have red petioles that I have seen. I'm including a couple pics - The bigger one is my pet, and the smaller one you can see the coloration much better. And last but not least, I got two variegated ones. Hope we can clear this up. Thanks! Jude

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
