i have a heart leaf philodendron that’s def not it😅

#### LadyTenorJD replied on 2025-07-03

Yeah. I have 2. This one is definitely not heart shaped.

#### Oksana 🥎🍦🌱 replied on 2025-07-03

Same and it doesn’t look like that at all but maybe it’s a different kind of heartleaf? If that makes sense

#### Victoria Maddison replied on 2025-07-04

Whatever app or website that is, it is not very accurate at all for a few reasons 😅  
1\. Heart leaf is very heart-shaped and is a vining/trailing variety  
2\. The “aka velvet leaf” in the notes is referring to Micans which are totally different as they’re dark, velvety, and another trailing variety  
3\. The pictures are showing a Silver Sword which is yet another philodendron but the coloring is much too different as hers is green and the silver sword is silver

Jade Pothos, maybe? I don’t think so, but they look a bit similar. I’m still researching LOL.

That looks very close to the photo, that might be it

### Auds commented on 2025-07-03

It could be a really young Florida green? It looks like the bottom leaves on mine, before they start really lobing

#### Tina replied on 2025-07-04

Agreed, my initial Florida leaves looked very similar to these.

### Auds commented on 2025-07-03

This is the bottom of mine, sorry it’s not too clear (and that it’s so messy haha)

### Auds commented on 2025-07-03

It might be worth giving it a few months or longer and seeing how it matures to be 100% though!

### Ava commented on 2025-07-03

thanks for all the replies i think i may have to just wait till it matures to see what it is!

#### Ricky’s replied on 2025-07-21

Looks like a young Rhaphidophora Dragontail
