Posterior lobes broadly oblique, obtusely oblong, separated by a broad, deeply parabolic sinus. Anterior lobe almost 4 times longer than the posterior lobe, gradually narrowed, arcuate, slightly extrose ('linea') towards the apex.
form the Modern Latin genus name Philodendron (Schott, 1830), form Greek philodendron, neuter of philodendrons "loving trees," form philo- "loving" (see philo-) + dendron "tree" (form PIE *der-drew-, form root *deru- "to be firm, solid, steadfast," also forming words for "wood, tree"). The plant so called because it clings to trees.
