Philodendron Selloum?

[DAVEinMB]

Lowe's got a few of these in; if it's a selloum I'm gonna grab one. 

Thanks!

It's bipinnatifrick 

Does anyone know if 'Hope' is a dwarf cultivar of the "standard" selloum? Or is 'Hope' just trendy selloum?

@Keys6505 @Xenon sorry I keep referring to these as philodendron,  I'll tighten up

Eh, I was close lol

Hope is a dwarf.  I don't think I've ever seen a hope more than 3'(ish) tall

I think Hope is a dwarf too, I have a bunch of "Little Hope" that are definitely dwarfs.  Ater 2 years they are no more than about 2' tall and with leaves that are not too deeply divided.

My understanding is hope is much less cold tolerant, is this true? I'm not gonna bother if this thing doesn't stand a chance in the ground here. I'm rapidly running out of protected experimental sites haha

Philodendron selloum, now known as Thaumatophyllum bipinnatifidum.

Thanks everyone!

Homedepot sells them every year here for $10.  I planted mine outside it is pretty hardy.

I picked up 2 today, debating on waiting til next year to plant... getting kinda late

Selloum is sometimes used as a privacy hedge here

Even if the leaves get damaged in a bad winter they come back from the roots, at least in my climate.

In the ground it will go

It had been Philodendron bipinnatifidum for awhile. But now all self heading Philos have been put into Thaumatophyllum.

One of theThaumatophyllum Bipinnatifidum is in its new home, not sure where the other is going yet. Sited next to my patio under washy canopy; has decent protection where it's at but won't get direct sun, probably ever haha
