Name change
[edit]
This page apparently lists Arrowhead Philodendron, Nephthytis, and Syngonium podophyllum as the same thing. It says:
- This species appears to have been cultivated as a houseplant since the end of the 19th century. It’s been confused botanically with an African genus, Nephthytis, which it resembles. Even though the American species were reclassified in 1879 to their own genus, the original name stuck as a common name.
So Syngonium podophyllum is the new name? And the old was something Nephthytis? — Omegatron 14:51, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
Cultivation
[edit]Nephthytis is not commonly found in cultivation at all -- everything tagged as a nephthytis is actually a Syngonium podophyllum. That entire section needs to be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:4958:2C93:F01:10AC:7FC3:777B:6DB7 (talk) 07:38, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
