Philodendron Micans - Velvet Luxury for Your Indoor Jungle

If you've ever wanted to stroke your houseplants, the Philodendron Micans is about to become your new favourite. Those heart-shaped leaves aren't just beautiful to look at, they're covered in a soft, velvety fuzz that gives them an almost suede-like texture. Combined with their iridescent quality that seems to shift colours depending on the light, this is one plant that truly needs to be seen (and touched) to be believed.

New leaves on the Micans emerge in shades of coppery bronze with hints of pink along the edges and bright emerald green veining. As they mature, they transform into deep, rich green with burgundy-purple undertones on the undersides. This colour-changing magic means your plant is constantly putting on a show, with multiple shades present at any given time. When the light catches those velvety leaves at just the right angle, they seem to shimmer with an almost metallic iridescence.

As a variety of Philodendron hederaceum (the classic Heart Leaf Philodendron), the Micans shares its easy-going nature with its more common relatives. If you can keep a Heart Leaf or Brasil alive, you'll have absolutely no trouble with this velvet beauty. The main difference? That incredible texture and those jewel-toned colours that make it feel so much more special.

Light Requirements

Philodendron Micans thrives in bright indirect light, which will keep those colours vibrant and encourage compact, bushy growth. An east-facing window is ideal, providing gentle morning light without the harsh afternoon sun that can scorch those delicate velvety leaves.

While Micans will tolerate lower light conditions, you'll notice the vines becoming leggy with more space between leaves as the plant reaches for light. The colours may also become less pronounced in lower light. If you notice your plant getting sparse and stretched, it's asking for a brighter spot.

Watering

Allow the top few centimetres of soil to dry out between waterings. Micans can be a bit more sensitive to overwatering than some Philodendrons, so when in doubt, wait another day or two. Soggy soil leads to root rot, which is the quickest way to lose this beauty.

When you do water, do so thoroughly until water runs from the drainage holes, then allow all excess to drain away completely. Your Micans will tell you when it's thirsty: the leaves will start to curl slightly. Just don't wait until they're completely wilted! Using filtered water or rainwater at room temperature will help keep those velvety leaves in top condition.

Humidity and Temperature

Coming from tropical rainforests, Philodendron Micans appreciates humidity levels around 50-60%. While it adapts well to average household humidity, you may notice brown leaf edges or tips if the air is particularly dry. Grouping plants together, using a humidifier, or occasional misting can help maintain those perfect conditions.

Keep temperatures between 18-29°C for optimal growth, with the ideal range around 20-24°C. Avoid cold draughts and temperatures below 12°C, and keep away from air conditioning vents and heaters. A consistent, warm environment will reward you with faster, lusher growth.

Potting Medium

A well-draining aroid mix is essential. Aim for roughly 50% organic matter (peat, coco coir, or quality potting mix) and 50% chunky drainage material (orchid bark, perlite, pumice). Our Ultimate Aroid Mix provides the perfect balance of moisture retention and drainage that Micans loves.

When repotting, go up only one pot size at a time. Overpotting can lead to the soil staying wet for too long, increasing the risk of root rot. Repot every 1-2 years or when you see roots emerging from drainage holes.

Trailing or Climbing

The beauty of Philodendron Micans is its versatility. Let those velvety vines cascade from a hanging basket or high shelf for an elegant trailing effect, or give them a Grow Vertical Propstick to climb for larger, more impressive leaves. When given support, the leaves can grow significantly bigger, and the plant will develop a more structured appearance.

Either way, regular pruning helps maintain a bushy, full appearance. Those cuttings root incredibly easily in water, making this an excellent plant for sharing with friends or propagating to fill out your own collection.

Feeding Your Philodendron Micans

Feed with Growth Technology Foliage Focus at 3-5ml per litre during the growing season from September through March, applying at every watering for optimum results. Add Growth Technology Rootzone at 1ml per litre every 2-4 weeks to encourage strong root development and healthy new growth. Reduce feeding during winter when growth naturally slows.

A Note on the Velvety Leaves

Those beautiful fuzzy leaves are best left alone rather than wiped down like other glossy-leaved Philodendrons. The tiny hairs that create that velvety texture can be damaged by aggressive cleaning. If your plant gets dusty, a gentle shower with room temperature water or very light misting should do the trick.

Perfect For

  • Beginners wanting a forgiving but impressive plant
  • Hanging baskets and high shelves where vines can trail
  • Moss poles and climbing displays for larger leaf development
  • Bathrooms and kitchens with good light (they love the humidity)
  • Plant lovers who appreciate unique textures
  • Anyone who wants a fast-growing, rewarding houseplant

Frequently Asked Questions

Why are my Micans leaves turning yellow?

Yellow leaves are usually a sign of overwatering. Check your watering schedule and ensure the soil is drying out adequately between waterings. Also ensure your pot has good drainage and the plant isn't sitting in water.

Why is my plant getting leggy with lots of space between leaves?

This is a sign of insufficient light. Move your Micans to a brighter location with more indirect light. You can prune the leggy vines and propagate the cuttings, then plant them back in the pot for a fuller appearance.

Can I clean the velvety leaves?

It's best to avoid wiping these leaves as you might with glossy Philodendrons. The velvet texture comes from fine hairs that can be damaged. A gentle shower or light misting is the safest way to remove dust.

How do I make my Micans bushier?

Regular pruning encourages the plant to branch out. Pinch or cut just after a leaf node to promote new growth points. The cuttings root easily in water, so you can pop them back in the pot once rooted for an even fuller plant.

Please Keep in Mind

Every Philodendron Micans is unique. Leaf colour can vary depending on light conditions and maturity, ranging from bronze-pink through to deep green with purple undersides. This is part of their charm! Philodendron Micans contains calcium oxalate crystals and should be kept out of reach of curious pets and children. Wash hands after handling if you come into contact with the sap.

Multifunctional dog toy, fetch, chew, dental health
This toy feels like soft rubber, unlike the super hard plastic Size wise, it would be a good toy to toss and play fetch with. My Aussiedoodle took to it right away. It has numerous nubs that are great for dental health. I use it, as well as other toys with nubs, to offer to my pups with a bit of smeared on it, to help with their dental health. 🤗 Thank you so much for taking the time to read this review, have a FANTASTIC day!!😊 5★

Not for aggressive chewers.

Our dog is a 50lb Pit mix. This toy lasted about a week before he took a hole knuckle off. Happy he did not swallow it.

Perfect Chew Toy, Not Too Soft Or Hard
I've been looking for new chew toys for my 2.5 year old German Shepherd that are durable enough to withstand her chewing, yet aren't so tough or hard that she dislikes it and won't chew or play with it at all. I'm so glad I got this large bone chew toy for her because the rubber is just the right amount of toughness without being too hard. She also loves the bacon smell. Another good thing about this is that there are 80 round nubs that stick out of the bone and are flexible to help clean the teeth. You can even put dog toothpaste on them to really help clean their teeth. This is perfect for my dog because she doesn't like toothbrushes or finger wipes. She also loves to play catch with this toy and since it's made of rubber I can throw it & it just bounces around. This is her new favorite toy and she loves it so much that when my Lab tries to play with her or take it away, she does a little warning growl telling her to stay away. She has only ever done that before with her favorite stuffed animal. All of their other toys they usually share, but I'm going to have to buy another one for my Lab. There is a warniìng that says "Not for aggressive dogs." I definitely recommend this chew toy for medium and large dogs that are big chewers, but not agressive. This toy is a good value for the money and will entice your dog with the bacon scent, keep them occupied chewing or playing, & also help with their dental hygiene.

Colorful, Sturdy & Great Value
Color: Large Set of 4
Purchased for our two puppies when they were 2 months old and weighed about 14 pounds so theses balls were a little big for them to hold in their mouths but that didn't stop them from trying. While they did like these balls they much preferred softer soccer balls, the later of which did not hold up well at all. I had hoped they would play with these balls more when they were older but that hasn't happened 5 months later. I guess it's no fun if you can't tear the toy apart. Colors are very bright and they do enjoy chasing after them as long as I am the one rolling them across the room for them. Maybe when they progress to batting things with their paws they will start to do this for themselves.
