Very often, Philodendron are grown as houseplants. They grow quickly, and are easy to care for. Sometimes Monstera are still called Philodendron. That plant is very similar.
Philodendron are sometime grown because they can neutralise some poisons commonly found indoors, most notably formaldehyde, carbon monoxide and benzene.
