Philodendron rugosum is known for its thick, leathery leaves. This species is a climber and would greatly benefit from a coco pole or other support structure.
While generally a slow grower, this Philodendron is hard to come by and one of our favorite unusual species of Philodendron.
Philodendron rugosum care:
This plant prefers a well draining soil that is rich in organic matter. Allow the soil to dry out almost completely before watering, taking care to not allow your plant to sit in excess water. Provide your new Philodendron with plenty of bright indirect light for optimal growth.
Additional info:
Philodendron is one of the most popular genuses of Aroid that are currently in cultivation, with over 450 named cultivars.
Philodendron vary greatly in their natural habits, but you will find a large number of them located in Latin America. Their leaves range from small to medium to large to gigantic! You'll find Philodendron with smooth, glossy foliage and some with velvety foliage!
If you allow Philodendron to climb, their foliage will usually get much larger the higher up they get. While this isn't true for all Philodendron species -- it is for most. We recommend a coco pole to really get your Philodendron growing!
For the most part, Philodendron are easy to care for.
The name Philodendron comes from the greek words "philo" (love or affection) and "dendron" (tree).
