It is a unique and distinct variety within the Philodendron genus, prized for its captivating foliage and distinctive appearance. While closely resembling the standard species, 'Fedec' may exhibit some variations or nuances that make it stand out. Originating from the lush rainforests of the Oxapampa region in Peru, this plant thrives in its native habitat.
The hallmark of Philodendron oxapapense 'Fedec' is its striking foliage, featuring elongated, heart-shaped leaves adorned with intricate patterns and prominent silver or cream-colored veining. The leaf coloration can range from deep and rich green to enchanting shades of olive and bronze. This philodendron typically grows as a climbing or vining plant, making it well-suited for trellises, totems, or decorative containers.
To ensure its thriving growth, provide 'Fedec' with moderate to bright indirect light and maintain well-draining soil, allowing it to slightly dry out between watering sessions. With its tropical charm and visually captivating foliage, Philodendron oxapapense 'Fedec' adds an exotic touch to indoor spaces, making it a cherished choice for plant enthusiasts and collectors seeking a unique and visually striking houseplant.
Plant was nowhere near the size expected and was not in good shape. I'm hoping I will be able to pull it through.
