Why a Philodendron?

The Philodendron has been a popular houseplant for many years, and for good reason:

• Air purifying: Philodendron plants are effective at filtering harmful substances from the air. They improve indoor air quality and contribute to a healthier indoor climate.
• Decorative: With their lush green leaves and diverse shapes and sizes, Philodendron plants add a stylish touch to any room.
• Easy to care for: Most Philodendron species are relatively easy to care for and have few environmental demands.
• Versatile: There are numerous Philodendron varieties available, from the classic Philodendron Scandens to the trendy Philodendron Birkin.
• Climbing and hanging varieties: You can choose from climbing Philodendrons that you can train along a moss pole, or hanging varieties that look beautiful in a hanging pot.

 

Philodendron Species: A Green Diversity

The Philodendron family is large and diverse. Some popular varieties include:

• Philodendron Scandens: A classic climber with heart-shaped leaves, perfect for beginners.
• Philodendron Birkin: A trendy variety with white stripes on the leaves.
• Philodendron Pink Princess: A special variety with pink spots on the leaves.
• Philodendron White Knight: A rare variety with white variegation on the leaves and stems.
• Philodendron Brasil: An easy climber with green leaves and yellow stripes.
• Philodendron Xanadu : A compact variety with deeply cut leaves.
• Philodendron Micans: A velvety-soft climber with heart-shaped, bronze-colored leaves.

 

Caring for your Philodendron: Tips & Tricks

Most Philodendron species are relatively easy to care for:

• Location: The Philodendron likes a light location, but avoid direct sunlight.
• Watering: Water the Philodendron moderately. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings.
• Humidity: Spray the leaves regularly with water, especially in winter when the humidity in the house is lower.
• Feeding: Feed the Philodendron with plant food once a month during the growing season (spring and summer).
• Support (for climbing species): Give climbing Philodendrons a moss pole or other support to climb on.
• Repotting: Repot the Philodendron every two to three years, or when the roots grow out of the pot.

 

Philodendron cuttings: Propagate your green friends

Philodendrons are relatively easy to propagate. You can take cuttings from the stem with a few leaves and aerial roots. Place the cutting in water or directly in soil, and new roots will grow within a few weeks.
