Philodendron
Philodendron Schott 1832, is a large genus of flowering plants from the arum family (Araceae), consisting of 700 or more species.
Philodendron species can be found in diverse habitats in tropical America and the West Indies. Most occur in humid tropical forests, but also in swamps, on river banks, roadsides and rock outcrops. They are shrubs and small trees, most of which are capable of clambering over other plants, or climbing the trunks of other trees with the aid of aerial roots.
All parts of the plant are poisonous, due to the presence of calcium oxalate crystals.
