Philodendron ``Bob Cee``

This rare hybrid by the late legendary Bob Cee is a stunning plant known for its distinctive foliage and compact growth habit. The large pinnate leaves are very long, glossy and highly segmented. They feature a beautiful blend of green and yellow tones, making it an eye-catching addition to any indoor space. Bob Cee is a relatively low-maintenance plant, thriving in moderate to bright indirect light and requiring infrequent watering. This philodendron variety is highly sought after by plant enthusiasts due to its unique shape, striking appearance and ease of care.

Syngonium auritum

Introducing the Syngonium auritum, or as we affectionately call it, the ``Earleaf Arrowhead Vine``! This charming plant is like the cool, laid-back friend in your botanical squad, effortlessly bringing a touch of greenery and style to any space.

Picture this: lush, arrowhead-shaped leaves with a subtle hint of ear-like lobes at the base, hence the fitting name ``auritum`` which means ``having ears`` in Latin. These leaves are a delightful shade of green, with each one showcasing unique patterns of veining that add to its allure. It's like Mother Nature herself took out her paintbrush and went to town!

Variegated Crinum Lily

Crinum Asiaticum, or Crinum Lily, are large flowering plants with very fragrant white flowers which grow directly from the base. The variegated version is also called “Striped Bengal Lily”. Variegated crinum lilies are very hard to find and even more striking than the green with long, white streaks running the length of the leaves.

Oversized Whale Fin

Nicknamed the Whale Fin, the Sansevieria Masoniana features uniquely shaped paddle-like leaves. Though slow growing, the Whale Fin can reach a truly impressive size compared to other members of the genus. This rare form of the popular Whale Fin Sansevieria is defined by yellow stripes of varying thicknesses and intensities. These are part of my Discoveries because of the sheer size of their leaves.
