A sought-after beauty among collectors, this philodendron has large, velvety leaves, whose dark green color stands out in stark contrast to their light-colored leaf veins. Since it grows creeping between trees and slopes in the wild, it is also nicknamed the creeping philodendron. It grows slowly and, like most philodendrons, is not demanding to care for.
• Delivery: You will receive a scion with 1-2 leaves
• Growth type: creeping
• Origin: tropical rainforests of Colombia
• Other names: Philodendron gloriosum White Veins, Magnificent Tree Friend, 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.
• Regularly remove dust from leaves with a slightly damp cloth. Cut off damaged and dead leaves promptly with disinfected and sharp scissors.
