Philodendron plant

Abstract

A self-heading Philodendron plant having uniquely shaped leaves with pronounced lobes that are distinctly hooked. New leaves are moderate reddish brown. Overall color of the plant is reddish to rich-green with reddish brown colored petioles.

I claim: 
     
       1. A new and distinct variety of Philodendron plant, substantially as herein shown and described, characterized particularly as to novelty by the unique combination of self heading growth habit, distinctive hooked, lobed leaf form, the leaves with reddish brown coloration, which ultimately produce a plant having overall reddish coloration enhanced by moderate light, freedom from "shot gun" fungus problems, upright symmetrical growth without requiring staking and average height of eighteen to twenty four inches in about one year.
