How do you spell PHiladandrum??

Ok we have gotten the brick columns painted in, let's move up to what is sitting on top of each.
These are going to be a sort of animated (sp) philadandrum (sp) --how do you spell that? hmmm?
You can see where I fist installed in a shadowy dark green the first leaves and stems, which are meant to represent the background leaves.
Then I took my pencil and drew in the leaves that are meant to be seen in the front of the others in a lighter shade of green
But first I filled them in with a bright whitish green,
And then I detailed lines and shadows onto these with a darker green once again.
The leaves were easy to draw, heart shaped with flame like ends.
But I am still in question as to how the plants nameis spelled.
