Philodendron bipennifolium variegated is an uncommon sport that produces stunning variegated foliage. The leaves are heart shaped at the lobes but then narrow down towards the tip of the leaf. These are also commonly referred to as 'Horsehead'.
Philodendron bipennifolium loves to climb so make sure to grab another pole to extend the existing one! As it climbs higher the leaves will get larger and longer!
Caring for your Philodendron bipennifolium is pretty easy. This species prefers a well draining soil that is rich in organic matter. Allow the soil to dry out almost completely between watering, taking care to not allow it to sit in excess water. Provide your plant with plenty of bright indirect light.
