Philodendron is part of the Araceae family, ‘Imperial Green’ is a cultivar with a rosette form and self-heading growth habit. Leaves are relatively large and dark green. It was originally discovered growing among several hundred random seedlings in Bamboo Nursery, Florida in 1977. The parentage of this cultivar remains unknown. It was then reproduced in tissue culture in Belgium in 1982. (USPP6086P).

Genus name comes from the Greek ‘philo’ meaning loving and ‘dendro’ meaning tree.
