Hi

WOW! That's super cool! Both yours and the variegated one are very beautiful. If yours ever gets too large and you need to take a cutting....lol.
Off topic, I wish it were cooler so I could go ahead and send your hostas, we are in an extreme drought here and I think Pakistan may be an oasis in comparison right now. Of course, we are normally spoiled by far more rainfall
Good luck on the ID :)
Yes of course, I will share my plant .
These days we are under heavy rains and our two provinces are badly affected. Daily life is parylised there and lost many lives.
At this moment there is raining out side.

So sorry to hear that, Kaleem, it is an extreme year for weather, that's for sure, I'm going to send you a dmail.
I have the name as Philodendron Hendersons Delight. This may not be the exact same plant possibly a different seedling from the same cross the form I have seems to climb much more.
I like to find out were my plants come from and if they are hybrids I like to give credit to the person who worked hard in breeding these new wonderful plant. Keith Henderson is a person many of you probably never heard of but you most likely grow some of his hybrids. I am not sure if he is still alive or not he lived in Australia and breed many if not all of the Verricosum philodendron hybrids we love. He also breed many other odd ball philodendrons manly the forms with velvety leaves. This Hendersons delight is one he breed that later made its way to Thailand were they changed the name a few times. I hate when that happens as it has happened a few times to me. I try my best to keep the name the breeder gives it. At times it may not sound like a great name for selling the plant but it may mean more to that person. I know I get excited when I see one of my hybrids listed and fairly upset when I see it mislabled. LOL
Here is a pic of Hendersons Delight anyone ever compare it to the ones you have shown above?
Thank you so much for the detailed reply, As I am not an expert and really dont know how to ID philos but I love them. I think Hendersons Delight and mine are two different species, leaves of mine are long and size is same from tip to toe. Here is another photo.

Kaleem,
I like that philo, do you have a cutting???
Maybe we can trade
The other is doing great, shooting one new leaf..
Armando
Is this a self-header? I swear I've seen pics of this one before... I think it was an old eBay listing from earlier this year, but can't remember for sure.
Armando
I will cut the plant and will trade with you again. The bat plant you sent me is also showing new leaf, I am so excited.
Kaleem

Armando
Thank you Armando, you are right. This is very close to mine but little bit different here is photo of P. GERGAJI.
