The Philodendron scandens, also known as the heart vine, is a climbing or trailing plant native to the tropical forests of Central and South America, prized for its soft, shiny tender green heart-shaped leaves. Its flexible stems and cordate leaves create a romantic and natural effect that suits any setting — cascading from a shelf, hanging like a curtain from a support, or forming a leafy cloud in a hanging planter.

Its exceptional tolerance to low light and rapid growth make it one of the most versatile trailing plants in the decorative trailing plants collection and the low-light plants selection.

Which Philodendron variety to choose?

The Philodendron genus includes dozens of species with very distinct shapes. Here’s how to place the Philodendron scandens among the references in the Philodendron collection — to choose between a Philodendron and a Monstera, as both genera often share the same locations and uses:

  • Philodendron scandens (this plant) — shiny tender green cordate leaves, very flexible trailing or climbing habit. The most versatile and easiest to care for in the range.
  • Philodendron Birkin — dark green foliage with fine white stripes, compact upright habit. The choice for precise graphic appeal and a more structured form.
  • Philodendron melanochrysum — large velvety dark green leaves with light veins, climbing habit. The choice for spectacular XXL foliage and rare velvety texture.
  • Philodendron White Princess — white and green variegated foliage, upright habit. The choice for striking variegation and very graphic leaves.
  • Philodendron Diamond Variegata — elegant green and cream marbling. The choice for softer, more natural variegation.
  • Philodendron Pedatum — spectacularly cut foliage, climbing habit, large size. The choice for a very architectural tropical effect in a large space.

Light & placement

Philodendron scandens is one of the few tropical plants that truly tolerates low light — a rare asset that makes it the ideal solution for dark rooms and corners without direct windows where most tropicals refuse to thrive.

  • Light: indirect to partial shade — tolerates shade, just avoid direct sunlight which burns the leaves.
  • Locations: bedroom, bathroom, office, dimly lit hallway — anywhere few plants survive.
  • Temperature: 15 to 27 °C, tolerates moderate fluctuations.

When hanging near a window, grow it trailing — on a moss pole in a less bright corner, grow it climbing to enjoy its fast growth and quickly cover a wall or shelf.

Watering & care

Philodendron scandens prefers a slightly moist but never soggy substrate — let the top 3 to 5 centimeters dry out between waterings, a rule valid for most indoor tropical plants.

  • Frequency: about once a week in spring-summer, every two weeks in winter.
  • Drainage: essential — use a pot with drainage holes and well-draining substrate.
  • Humidity: occasionally mist the foliage to replicate the tropical atmosphere.
  • Fertilizer: a liquid fertilizer for green plants diluted once a month in spring and summer.
  • Pruning: pinch stems regularly to encourage branching and a bushier habit.

Philodendron scandens roots very easily in water — cut a stem with a node, place it in a glass of water, and roots appear in 2 to 3 weeks, just as described for tropical plant cuttings.

Decor ideas & plant pairings

The flexibility and fast growth of Philodendron scandens make it an ideal structural plant for hanging arrangements — it quickly fills empty spaces and adds volume in the darkest corners.

  • For a very graphic trio hanging arrangement, pair Philodendron scandens with a Pothos and a Monstera adansonii — the heart-shaped leaves of scandens, the marbled leaves of Pothos, and the perforated leaves of Monstera create three very complementary textures in the same green palette.
  • On a moss pole in a dim corner, let Philodendron scandens climb a moss pole — its tolerance to partial shade makes it one of the few plants to quickly cover a wall or shelf in less sunny spaces.
  • For a contrast foliage pairing, place it alongside a Calathea Lancifolia — the smooth, shiny cordate leaves of Philodendron contrast with the elongated, spotted leaves of Calathea for a very dynamic tropical composition.
  • In a macramé or natural fiber decorative pot, the trailing stems of Philodendron scandens create a natural cascading effect that is very elegant — choose a hanging decorative pot in white ceramic or terracotta to highlight the softness of the tender green foliage.

Verdeia Tips

  • Pinch stems regularly for a bushier habit: left unpruned, Philodendron scandens produces long, sparsely branched stems — pinching the tips encourages new lateral shoots and a dense, generous silhouette that is much more decorative.
  • Choose your growing style from the start: trailing in a hanging planter for an elegant cascading effect, or climbing on a moss pole for larger leaves and more pronounced fenestrations — both styles give very different results and the decision is made from the beginning.
  • Propagate regularly to thicken the plant: cut the longest stems, replant them directly in the mother plant’s pot — within a few weeks, new shoots emerge and the plant becomes much fuller and more voluminous.

Obsessed. Soothing, effective, fragrance-free, incredibly healing
Style: Tolerance Daily Foaming Facial Cleanser
I’ve been loving this so much I bought a second bottle after a few days of using it. It has all the skin soothing benefits of the tolerance lotion cleanser, but it’s also a really great cleanser. It’s almost not noticeable how good it is at cleansing because your skin doesn’t feel stripped after, but it takes things off really quickly. I was worried because it doesn’t foam a lot and it feels so nurturing — much like the tolerance lotion cleanser (which I use as a second cleanse when my skin needs a few days to recover from something like a derm office treatment) — but when I wash again with my favorite HG cleanser nothing extra comes off, and I tested it twice on waterproof eyeliner that I’d swiped on my forearm for an hour or so, the eyeliner dissolved and wiped off with two or three gentle swipes. It has a very emollient texture, so when you rub it against your skin it slips so easily you don’t realize it’s dissolving and taking things away because there is no friction. So it’s great at taking off makeup, it’s AMAZING at cleaning makeup brushes, and IT DOES NOT BURN MY EYES AT ALL. Also, it is FRAGRANCE-FREE… before I bought it I read a review complaining about smelling a citrus fragrance, that person either has some sort of brain tumor or something spilled on their bottle when it was in a warehouse because this is definitely a fragrance-free product. Prior to trying this, I had tried another cleanser that gave me weird acne hives all over my chest (never happened to me before) and I was struggling to heal the acne and the irritation. I noticed an immediate difference when I started using the tolerance cleanser on it; the fresh redness went away, the acne started healing, and the post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation has been healing fast. So I’ve been using this on my body as well and it’s soothing and moisturizing in all the places where other things have been drying. I have mild rosacea and I hadn’t realized how irritated my skin was from the last thing I’d tried until after 5 days or so of using this my skin tone looked much more even and the stubborn PIH I have from a two-zit hormonal breakout a month ago finally looked dramatically lighter (as recently as the week before, I’d needed to cover them with high-coverage concealer). Because this doesn’t foam much, some people might not realize how well it’s cleaning… I encourage you to judge it based on how your skin looks and feels. Since it is very emollient though, I do think it’s important to use it with a face wash scrubber or washcloth just to ensure you’re getting some mild mechanical exfoliation and clearing away skin cells that could be trapping stuff in your pores. For this reason, I do wash my face with this twice so the first wash can get off makeup/debris/oil and then the second wash can really penetrate and clean my skin.

No Scent and Gentle
Style: Tolerance Daily Foaming Facial Cleanser
I broke out in a case of Perioral Dermatitis recently and bought this product to help before I could see my doctor. Avene Tolerance facial cleanser has no scent and is very gentle on my skin. It didn’t burn when washing with this product, and even helped to slough off the dead skin around my lips. My face feels clean, not dry. I am still going to see my doc to get an RX for the inflammation, but I do believe this product helped to alleviate the dryness and tightness of my skin and lips. I’ve used other Avene products and I’m very happy with them. Even though these products are more expensive, to me they are well worth the money because they are much more gentle on the skin than any other products I’ve used. I will buy this product again just because of the fact that it’s so gentle. PS: at the time of purchase for this product, I also bought Avene’s Tolerance Control Skin Recovery Cream (you don’t need to use a lot of this one on your entire face), and Avene’s Cicalfate for lips. Between these 3 products, my lips and skin feel a lot better (however, I will still see my doctor because I have Crohn’s Disease and Perioral Dermatitis is considered an extra-intestinal side effect of Crohn’s).
