Can anyone help me id this philodendron?
What am I
i've got no clue...
but it sure is pretty!
i'd love one like that.. lol
you sure it's a philodendron?
What a great one. Is that in a nursery where you live Barb?
I was about to say "P. erubescens", but the leaf shape tells me that there's something different with this one... Couldn't it be some Alocasia?
I bet "of spades" is in the name. Looks like a midnight ace of spades or something.
I looked for a very long time last night for anything resembling this.
This is the closest I got P. Mandaianum. But as you can see from this link, all 4 of them are different looking. So who knows.

Very interesting plant...looks like an Alocasia /Philo hybrid...
This is a fantastic looking plant,I hope it can be IDed,I want to find one, or two.
Kell-it is my greenhouse with all my brugmansia cuttings and seedlings.
Barbara is looks like Ace of Spades to me. Hard to tell what color it is. But the shape of the leaf looks very much like Ace of Spades. If the new leaf emerges in an intense copper color then turns satiny olive with burgandy viens (back is also burgandy on mature leaves) then you have an Ace of Spades.
Good luck!
