4" Philodendron Tortum

The Philodendron Tortum is an unusual and highly sought-after aroid known for its incredibly narrow, twisted foliage. Its long, ribbon-like leaves emerge in a striking, almost skeletal pattern, giving the plant a sculptural and exotic appearance unlike most Philodendrons. As it matures, the foliage becomes even more intricate, making Tortum a standout addition to any rare plant collection.
