RE: The Leafy Luxury of Philodendrons.
Philodendron is a large genus of flowering plants in the Araceae family. As of September 2015, the World Checklist of Selected Plant Families accepted 489 species; other sources accept different numbers. Regardless of number of species, the genus is the second-largest member of the Araceae family.[citation needed] Taxonomically, the genus Philodendron is still poorly known, with many undescribed species. Many are grown as ornamental and indoor plants. The name derives from the Greek words philo- or "love, affection" and dendron or "tree". They are commonly called by their generic name.

Philodendrons can be grown outdoors in mild climates in shady spots. They thrive in moist soils with high organic matter. In milder climates, they can be grown in pots of soil or in the case of Philodendron oxycardium in containers of water. Indoor plants thrive at temperatures between 15 and 18 °C and can survive at lower light levels than other house plants. Although philodendrons can survive in dark places, they much prefer bright lights. Wiping the leaves off with water will remove any dust and insects. Plants in pots with good root systems will benefit from a weak fertilizer solution every other week.

Great Pics my friend, but i think you will find that the last two photos are actually Monstera diliciosa, which it not a Philodendron. The leaves look similar, but notice the holes in the leaves, and they also produce edible fruit, like a cob of corn, but sweet, one of my favourite fruit. It's easy to confuse the two plants !
Thanks again for your informative response. I don't have much knowledge about plants but recently I have learnt about various plants and flowers from your valuable daily article. Hope I will learn much about more plants.
