SPLIT LEAF PHILODENDRON

£290.00

Split-leaf Philodendron is not actually a philodendron but a woody epiphytic vine that climbs by adventitious roots. It starts its life as a terrestrial plant, turning epiphytic once it comes into contact with a sturdy tree it can climb, sending down long roots to get nutrients from the soil. It is native to tropical regions of North and South America and can grow to 70 feet tall, though it stays between 6-8 feet in most home environments. Edible fruit is produced in its native habitat that is said to taste like a cross between a banana and pineapple. All other parts of the plant are toxic.

In NC, it is grown as a houseplant. Its showy leaves are conspicuously lobed with elongated holes throughout the blade. Young leaves develop this characteristic over time. This plant can get quite large and sturdy support is necessary to prevent the stems from breaking. It typically does not produce flowers nor fruits in interior landscapes. It prefers an average warm temperature of 60-85 degrees, moderate brightness but not direct sunlight, and high humidity.

Pot size: 32 cm
Height: 130 cm

The size of the leaves is 60x60cm on average.
