Philodendron pinnatifidum

Ornamental philodendron from Venezuela and NE Brazil. It is reminiscent of P. bipinnatifidum (=selloum) but this one is a more compact and tidy plant, with thicker, stiffer dull leaves and showy reddish blotches on the leafstalks. It is also more a nest-forming philodendron, and its rosette creeps with age, not forming an erect trunk.

Just like selloum,it wants high light and it is hardier in general, to drier, windy, harsh conditions.
