Is it , Is it? ha? please tell me tell me. Isn't it beautiful?
I really love it. Got it at a little specialty nursery close to home, there were about l0 of them in the store, every one I brought up there they said wasn't for sale, I said which one was. LOL
It sure looks like the cebu blue philo?
Is this what I think it is? !!!!!!! Ce bu Blue?
kathy_ann, looks like the silver one is Scindapsis exotica. Dianesjungle identified mine a short while ago.
Hopefully this link works:

It is my new favorite shady foliage hanging basket plant! But I sure do like your new blue one!

Thanks so much cathy, this little nursery is very very expensive. and tries hard to get exotic things.
I'm prety sure that blue one is the cebu blue, AFter I purchased mine, I told them what they had, LOL they don't know the names of their plants. and I told them this one is high dollar and hard to find.
I didn't tell them that till I bought mine though LOL the rest of them will probably be more expensive the next time I go in there.
thanks for the id on that one
Glad to pass the info along. The only place I could find it online was GlassHouse Works, I think it was around $20.
I tried putting a few cuttings in water, one disappeared, the other has chew marks all along one leaf. I saw on this forum where philos can be rooted in soil, so I'm going to try that route too. Somewhere away from the squirrels, I think they knocked the other cutting out of the container. Buggers!
I hear their pretty easy to root, this nursery had this one stuck in all the different potted plants. which made them neat looking, you get several plants for your money which made it nicer, cause they were very very expensive pots.
I paid 29.00 for a huge hoya over there today too, I posted that in the hoya forum for id's
I really thought that one philo was that silver spot, which is quite common, sounds like this one is hard to find .
Nice hoyas, they are both beautiful. I don't have any hoyas yet, I'm saving them for my next plant addiction...
Kathy_ann,
It's a lovely plant, and a philodendron, but I don't believe it is Epipremnum pinnatum 'cebu blue'. Here's a link with some pictures of 'cebu blue' for comparison: http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/662228/
your right, some one else mentioned it wasn't the cebu blue, I also have a small blue cebu and it doens't look like this one either.
They did mention that the top picture was philodendron hastatum/silver sword.
The first plant is a Philodendron that was known for many years as Glacophyllum but now is considered a form of hastatum possibly here is a link that can give more detailed info on it.

The next plant is an Asian aroid called Scindapsus pictus. Their are a few clones of this species your for looks to have two different names Argyraeus or Exotica. The thing about this form that I like a lot but not a lot of people know is that it normally does not grow the way you see it in a pot. This plant wants to climb and when it does it is very interesting. It is in nature a shingler plant which means it grows flat to the surface of the tree that it is climbing up. Here is a photo of the exact same plant but this one is climbing up a rock wall. I think its much more interesting this way.
Thanks Brian, That plant is quite unusual looking growing up the wall, I guess it just attaches it self without any support?
I was sent that same link by flowerjunkie who Id'd the first photo for me as same as you did. thanks to the both of you.
