Description

Philodendron imbe 'Jose Buono'

Name: Philodendron imbe, Schott ex Kunth 1841 var. ilsemanii 'Jose Buono'
Synonyms: Calostigma imbe, Schott 183
Philodendron callifolium, Engl. 1878
Philodendron sellowianum, Kunth 1841
Etymology: imbe = Imbé is a municipality on the coast of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil's southernmost state, 120 km east of Porto Alegre.
Origin: Brazil
Habitat: hemi-epiphytic in tropical rainforests or cloud forests with Brazil's warm, humid coastal climate.
Notes: The botanically correct name for Philodendron 'Jose Buono' is Philodendron imbe var. ilsemanii 'Jose Buono'. At some point, for commercial reasons, this species with variegated leaves came to be known only as Philodendron Jose Buono.
Like several other species in this genus, Philodendron imbe can heat its spadix during flowering to produce more fragrance. This not only attracts more insects but also makes them significantly more active, greatly increasing the likelihood of pollination.
