These are pure Philodendron tenue plants taken from cuttings from your mother plant, not something you often see in nurseries in Australia. The leaves are long and narrow with a soft heart shape and heavy ribbing that runs from the centre vein out to the edges which gives them a pleated, sculpted look.

Tenue also produces small extrafloral nectaries at the point where the leaf meets the petiole which is a normal feature of this species. It grows steadily in bright filtered light with higher humidity and a chunky aroid mix that drains well. Having a true tenue available is rare so it’s a great chance for collectors who want a clean species line.
