I have 12 to 15 plants or tip cuttings of Philo 'Red Emerald' that I can send for postage. If there's more interest than I have plants and tip cuts, I can send 4 to 6 node cuttings of stems, which are easy to grow new plants from. I'll gladly help any newbies with instructions to get you started.
This is an old hybrid that has maintained its popularity because it's easy to grow, is quite pretty, and is fast growing. Tip cuttings will have aerial roots and shouldn't be too hard to root, even this time of year. It will actually do fine in water til spring if necessary.

Philo 'Red Emerald' for postage
I don't know that one, but have Philo Moonlight. I would love a cutting, do you have a photo?
Found this searching. http://www.wschowa.com/abrimaal/araceum/philodendron/redem.htm

Thanks, I found that too. Now tell me how to post a link.

When you are on a page you want to share, go to the address bar, right click and chose 'copy'. Then go to where you want to post the link, right click and chose 'paste'. Voila! Some links don't post well, like ones from Ebay or mapquest where they are very long.
Russ, I sent you dmail. :)

I have a joung Philo 'Zulu Prince' that looks similar but much darker
I will update my offer with these plants also available.
Philo fenzlii (rare, looks like a Syngonium)
Monstera deliciosa 'Borsigiana' (smaller, faster growing form of deliciosa).
Syngonium podophyllum variegata (white variegation)
These are basically 'weeds' growing under my oaks behind the shadehouse.
Russ
Note: The pictures I've seen of 'Zulu Prince' look to me like an old hybrid called 'Burgundy'. I'm also trying to find out what 'Bloody Mary' is, can't find a picture.
I'm finding that sellers, perhaps wholesalers, are renaming old plants to more exotic and marketable names. Don't know if that's the case with either of these, but I'm suspicious.
Russ
Oh, Russ! I want the Monstera.....please..
I'm not familiar with that one either. On googling, I found four references to Bloody Mary but no pictures nor info.
Thanks Badseed, I'll give that a try.
See if this Bloody Mary Pic helps
