Nature Philodendron Selloum

Philodendron Selloum · 02:06 AM

Hi

This is a photograph just for general interest

It is a Philodendron Selloum (also known as Monstera Deliciosa) which grows in a corner of our garden. It produces Fruit ever year or shall we say it tries to because I am not pollinating it mainly because I do not want to get a reputation in the neighborhood.

Check this out:

Witty commends are encouraged.

Greetings

Nothing at all. Just worried about what everybody else might be thinking

Encore! Here's the (as yet unripe...) fruit of M. deliciosa, for your delectation... (shot with the company D80, at work)...

Hi

Thanks for the pic.
I wonder whether you can or have to pollinate these like the P. Selloum, it could be a bit rough on your hands

Greetings

Indeed. In this case the bees are responsible but suit yourself

I remember that being broadcast on Burke's Backyard, I also remember hearing that they sold out at nurseries all around the country shortly thereafter.

Thanks Tess, but I was hoping for something a bit more risqué
