Care
Bright indirect light
Water when top 1-2" of soil is dry
Philodendron goeldii has peculiar foliage that, when mature, splits and forms a circular pattern similar to a necklace.
This species of Philodendron is a joy to watch grow! As each new leaf emerges you'll find yourself asking, "Can they get any more amazing!?". They make a great indoor plant and can adapt to almost any environment.
Caring for your Philodendron goeldii is fairly simple. Allow the soil to dry out almost completely between watering, taking care to not allow it to sit in excess water. This plant prefers bright indirect light.

Customer Reviews
Bought this philodendron a couple months ago. It’s grown two leaves since then. Each new leaf is more elaborate. Love watching it evolve.
My plants came in great condition and just as gorgeous as in the photos! I ordered on Monday and received my plants on Wednesday morning! I was more than impressed by that seeing that most places take at least a few days before shipping out.
I got my little goeldii about a week ago and she is so adorable! The packing was immaculate, she is in great shape and already sprouting new leaves! I love her and of course, will purchase from canopy again.

This was my first time buying from Canopy Plant Co, and I couldn't be happier. Not only was it cheaper than many other places, but the plant also arrived before the weekend in great condition. I also emailed with some questions when I got the plant, and I got a response within a couple of hours. I will definitely shop from Canopy in the future!
Beautiful plant. As described. Thank you
