Philodendron mamei Overview
Philodendron mamei is a perennial plant with a tropical feel from the Araceae family. It originates from Ecuador and is a collectable houseplant in many areas of the world. It produces large, arrow to oval-shaped, velvety and strongly veined leaves with silver colouring on tall stems.
