The Philodendron Panduriforme is characterized by its large, distinctive leaves, which are not heart-shaped like many other Philodendron species, but rather shaped like oak leaves or arrowheads. It is a so-called hemi-epiphyte because in the wild it first germinates in treetops and grows there for a while as an epiphyte until the aerial roots come into contact with the ground. Its care is no more complex than that of most philodendrons.
• Delivery: You will receive a scion with 1-2 leaves and aerial roots.
• Growth type: climbing
• Origin: tropical rainforests of the northern and western Amazon basin
• Other Names: Fiddlehead Philodendron, Horsehead Philodendron, Tree Lover, Tree Lover, Climbing Philodendron


Ben's care tips:

• We recommend keeping the cutting in moist sphagnum moss until it has rooted. Then it can be potted in the soil recommended under the point substrate.
• Location/light requirements: partially shaded to bright, avoid direct sunlight.
• Substrate: Ben's Premium Sphagnum Moss, Ben's Philodendron & Monstera Soil, Special Soil
• Temperature: optimal at 23-27°C (day), 16-18°C (night), do not allow to cool below 12°C
• Watering: Keep the substrate moist and water when the upper substrate layer begins to dry with lukewarm water that is low in lime, but avoid waterlogging. Water less in winter.
• Humidity: needs high humidity, spray regularly (leaves should be allowed to dry afterwards!) or use an air humidifier
• Nutrient addition: In spring/summer approx. every 4-6 weeks with liquid fertiliser.
• Repot about every 1-2 years when the plant is properly rooted.
• This philodendron reacts somewhat sensitively to waterlogging, which is why appropriate drainage is particularly important.
