Philodendron Mcdowel

Philodendron McDowell is a cross between Philodendron gloriosum and Philodendron pastazanum. It was created by John Banza in 1988 and was named for a friend of his, Dean McDowell.

McDowell takes the huge heart-shaped leaf trait from both its parents, the vivid vein colors from P.gloriosum, and the slightly ruffled leaves from P. pastazanum. It’s unknown if this was an intentional cross or whether it just happened, but either way, we are super happy it did.
