It is Philodendron subgenus melinonii. Thanks to leland Miyano for the ID!
I also got this interesting info from him:
That is Philodendron subgenus Philodendron melinonii. Normally it grows high in trees in the Amazonian region of Brasil and adjacent countries. The plants form rosettes about 6 feet or more in diameter. Very attractive and easily grown. As you can see, it also can be grown as a terrestrial. Recently, I have been seeing more hybrids with this species as one parent. It is a self heading species, but, it is not a Meconostigma.


Thanks to all for your help! Smiling
