PHILODENDRON 'CREAM PARADISE'

ORIGIN:

Joinville Folhadas; a select form of Philodendron ‘Paraiso Verde’ grown from seed; accepted by the IAS Aroid Cultivar Registry

CULTIVAR DESCRIPTION:

A hemiepiphyte. The leaves have the form of Philodendron ‘Paraiso Verde’ and a full cream-mint aspect, or sometimes a slight isolated green color in a small part of the leaf. No bloom or fruit is recorded. The registrant considers it a unique plant, being unaware of any other plant with stable full cream leaves on every leaf that do not burn (the leaves are resistant), which gives it a permanent full-cream look.¹
