Hi friends! First time posting here but I know this community is very helpful! I rescued this cutie from Walmart but the tag just says fancy philodendron!

I am wondering if anyone happens to know what kind of philodendron this little guy is? Does it look like any plants you have currently?  
I’ve gotten a few different results. I figure I may have to wait until it starts to grow and shakes the walmart blues. 🥲 thank you!!

P.s. check out that split leaf at the bottom left. Looks like it even has a second vein on the underside. Very cool!

Philodendron ring of fire ☺️ Yours is very pretty. Cool conjoined twin leaf there!

Do you think so!? I thought so too just because they seem a bit wavy on the edges. Thank you!

Yay! I got another one from my local Walmart today. If yours is anything like mine, be weary of that super wet soil that it came in.

Yaaas! How long have you had your other one? I’m excited to see how she grows! Thank you for that tip this is my first philo and need all the help I can get 🙌

The original one I got I think I’ve had about three weeks… He was in bad shape so he’s still struggling a bit to come back. I have him in a semi Hydro set up. This one I’ll also put in LECA.

If you keep him in soil; just make sure he’s not water logged. Philodendrons I really good about telling you when they’re thirsty. So just water him when he starts to look a little droopy.
