I propagated this yesterday for a sale/trade my local rare plant group is having in April. Its a Philodendron that was imported by Barry Yinger at the now defunct Asiatica Nursery in about 2004/5. It was called 'Zulu Prince'. It has been determined that it is a unique entity from 'Majesty', 'Burgundy', the so called 'Bloody Mary' and 'Black Jack'. Recently I have seen sellers from out of country offering plants that are clearly Majesty and Burgundy as Zulu Prince. And they will label them 'Zulu Prince/Burgundy/Majesty/Bloody Mary' as though these are all the same plant LOL. But Zulu is easy to separate from those...it is TRULY BLACK (not dark purple), the leaves are mature at about 6 inches and very thin and lanceolate.
