Philodendron brandtianum loves to climb so provide it with a pole or other support structure to really watch it thrive! As it climbs higher, the leaves with grow longer and are truly a sight to behold.
Caring for your new Philodendron brandtianum is easy. This plant prefers a well draining soil that is rich in organic matter. Allow your plant to dry out almost completely between watering, taking care to not allow it to sit in excess water. Provide it with plenty of bright indirect light.
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).
Brad (his name. Obviously), came packaged impeccably. (Seriously- how did you do that? He’s a handful!!!) and he settled in very nicely.
In my household he’s been a slow-ish grower but he didn’t really show any signs of shipping stress either. While the pictures I’m attaching are probably way over a month later, this is close to the size he came at.
Gorgeous color. Impeccable shipping. I really recommend this one.
Pro tip- if you’re able to get your hands on (lol) a second set of hands to help you un pack, repot, basically anything where you’re maneuvering this guy, it will be so much easier. He’s tangly and thin.
Ps I DID find his arrival pic and he actually has grown quite a lot so I guess he’s just not flamboyant. But he’s definitely my silver fox!! 😍
Love this review! ✨ Sounds like Brad has settled in perfectly—slow and steady, but definitely growing. Thanks for the tip on handling this silver fox! 😍
Arrived healthy and a great size! Was un phased by shipping and putting on new growth! Such a beautiful scindapsus!
Gorgeous, full plant - larger than I expected for a 4” pot. The silver variegation is stunning! Excellent packaging and the fastest shipping you can get buying plants online.
Thank you! We're so happy you loved the surprise size and that stunning silver variegation! Fast shipping and happy plants—that’s what we aim for! ✨
