Philodendron hastatum is a species of flowering plant in the family Araceae.[2][3][4] The species has previously been known by synonyms such as Philodendron domesticum or other names,[5][6] a confusion made worse by the large degree of morphological variation in this and similar Philodendrons.[7] Commonly known as the silver sword philodendron,[8] the plant is known for its silvery coloration, especially in juvenile leaves.[9]
