Philodendron serpens is a rare and uncommon species that thrives in higher than average humidity. Perfect for a greenhouse or even an Ikea cabinet that's been converted into one!
The foliage is very fuzzy and is arrow shaped.
Philodendron serpens is a climber, so make sure to provide it with a coco pole or other support structure to attach to. As the plant climbs higher, the leaves will grow larger.
Philodendron serpens care:
This Philodendron species prefers a well draining soil that is rich in organic matter. Allow the soil to dry out about half way before watering, taking care to not let it sit in excess water or remain dry for an extended period. Philodendron serpens needs an environment with higher than average humidity in order to thrive. Provide your new Philodendron with plenty of bright indirect light.
