{"title":"Thaumatophyllum","description":"\u003cp\u003eThaumatophyllum is the name still widely used for the self-heading tree-philodendron group: large lobed aroids that build a crown and trunk-like base instead of climbing. In current taxonomy the name sits within Philodendron, but in cultivation it still signals the same habit at a glance: broad dramatic floor plants, narrower strap-lobed forms, and compact mound-forming selections such as Xanadu that keep the same architectural feel at a lower height.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat sets this group apart indoors is structure. These plants hold their own shape without a pole, build real visual weight from trunk and canopy, and give a bolder tropical outline than most vining aroids can manage on their own. That also makes them easier to place when you want foliage with real footprint rather than a climber that needs training.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"thaumatophyllum-african-fantasy","title":"Thaumatophyllum 'African fantasy' ('Philodendron Angela')","description":"\u003ch3\u003eThaumatophyllum 'African fantasy' ('Philodendron Angela') at a glance:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThaumatophyllum 'African Fantasy', also circulated under older Philodendron trade names, is a self-supporting hybrid valued for leaves that begin entire and later become more deeply lobed as the plant matures.
