Hello! I bought what was labeled a moonlight philodendron but it's putting out a leaf with mahogany variegation? Any ideas?

not sure about the variegated part tho

### Kristin commented on 2025-04-18

It’s a hybrid of a few diff philos so one could be popping through.

This looks more like one of the newer flame variety. Like yellow Flame. If so that's a pretty good score, those are still going for $$. Moonlight have no varigation. Just yellow leaves that turn green

I second the possibility of a yellow flame. My flame looks very similar to that one.
