Philodendron Rio is an uncommon mutation of Philodendron Brazil, which originated at Gabriella Plants in Oviedo, FL. We're very excited to be one of the first retailers that is authorized to sell a Gabriella Plants exclusive plant!
These differ from Philodendron Silver Stripe in that they have an inner silver streak. True stunners and one you should definitely have in your collection.
We highly recommend providing a coco pole or other support structure for your Philodendron Rio to climb. As they climb higher, the leaves will grow larger.
Philodendron Rio care:
This Philodendron 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 Philodendron to sit in excess water. Provide your new indoor plant 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).
Customer Reviews
I love it! Nice and full little pot
Arrived quickly in great condition. Can’t wait to watch it grow!
This is my first order from Canopy, but I doubt it will be my last. This Philodendron 'Rio' arrived in perfect condition. The packaging was great - no dirt even fell out of the pot! It had already nearly outgrown the 3 inch pot and really took off when I put it in a 5 inch. Very happy!
