#NewPlantAlert!
I have been wanting a #philodendronbillietiae ever since I saw pics of one and now I have a beautiful baby. I got him from one of my fave local plant shops. I needed the name to be an alliteration with Billietiae, and Baphomet was weirdly enough the first B name that came to mind. ๐Ÿ˜ˆ

Congrats on your new plant baby! It looks great ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿชด

I also thought a "b" name would be good for the Billietiae I got a few months ago - I named her Lady Day for the jazz singer Billie Holiday.
@ballondusoleil thank you! I love that! I almost named him Billie BUUUT Baphomet seemed to suit him more.
That's a pretty rad name! I committed to using the names of female and gender expansive musicians as a theme for naming my plants but it can be a challenge since I want the name to suit the plant. Sometimes I just use their botanical name while I get to know the plant better and wait for naming inspiration to strike โšก๏ธ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿชด๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿ˜
@JesssJungle lovely leaves Jess , I really like the color as it looks so healthy ๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿคฉ
@ballondusoleil I do that too, with the names!! Lol or I just put "Noname" temporarily. ๐Ÿ˜†
@Seymour yess he was the healthiest looking of the bunch on the shelf. I love him.
