Any idea which Philodendron this might be.

Thanks

This is the philodendron that I have in variegated form that is labelled P. domesticum. Whether that name is correct or not, I am not certain. The variegated form (white and green no yellow) has been called variously Philo 'Imbe' and Philo 'Whipples Way' and god knows what else. I have settled on calling mine P. domestic variegata.

I have Domesticum which has red leaf stalks.

I think that this one is sagittifolium

Well then I have no idea what mine is

When I first got the plant I have labelled as P. domestic it was a 'Plant of the Moment' as I like to call them, something that becomes popular very quickly because its either new or hasn't been seen for a long time and kind of makes a comeback. Because young leaves have a good degree of variegation, someone had labeled this plant Philodendron ilsemanii. Someone else said it was P. 'imbue'. There was a big flap on forums that it was neither and was something else. Eventually it was kind of decided that it was probably P. domestic. This was about 2009-2010. I got a good start cheap at a botanical garden sale. It is a huge growing rampant climber. I cut off about 5 feet from each of my 2 mother plants every year to keep it in check. Stems can be as thick as 3/4-1 inch PVC pipes. Leaves can get 16-20". They come out pretty variegated and gradually the variegation fades as the leaf matures. This is a small cutting I made earlier this summer for a particularly variegated group of leaves. I wanted to see if I could keep it this variegated. So far so good.

This is one of the mother plants.
