It is a hemi-epiphytic plant species from the genus Philodendron that is endemic to Brazil, Guyana, and French Guiana. In nature, it develops as an epiphyte, and the elongated leaves and petioles aid in stretching out to gather light. This plant has long, strap-shaped leaves with lovely orange petioles. When mature, its leaves may grow to be almost a meter long.
