Philodendron Bicolor is characterized by its spectacular narrow, strap like leaves. The underside of the leaves have a copper tone to them. A truly fantastic Philodendron and one every Philodendron enthusiast should have in their collection.
We recommend allowing your Philodendron Bicolor to climb a coco pole or other support structure. As it climbs the leaves will gradually grow longer!
Philodendron Bicolor care:
This plant prefers a well draining soil that is rich in organic matter. Allow the soil to dry out about 3/4 of the way before watering, taking care to not allow it to sit in excess water. Provide your new Philodendron plant with plenty of bright indirect light for optimal growth for years to come.
