Philodendron hastatum explained

Philodendron hastatum is a species of plant in the genus Philodendron. The species has previously been known by synonyms such as Philodendron domesticum or other names, a confusion made worse by the large degree of morphological variation in this and similar Philodendrons.[1] Commonly known as the silver sword philodendron,[2] the plant is known for its silvery coloration, especially in juvenile leaves.[3]
