Philodendron micans

Philodendron micans has soft, colour-shifting leaves on slim trailing or climbing stems. New growth can show bronze, copper or reddish tones before settling into deep green with a velvety surface, while the undersides often keep a warmer tint.

The leaves are thin, softly textured and easily marked by strong direct sun or repeated handling. Stems lengthen from visible nodes, so the plant can be kept as a soft hanging vine or encouraged upward on a fine support.

Velvet leaves with bronze and green shifts

  • Velvety heart-shaped leaves with bronze, green and reddish colour shifts.
  • Soft stems lengthen steadily and can be pruned back above visible nodes.
  • Juvenile leaves often show the strongest warm tones and surface texture.
  • Leaf undersides can hold reddish to coppery tones as the top surface deepens green.
  • The velvet surface catches light in shifting bronze, green and copper tones.

Trailing stems and velvet heartleaf growth

Philodendron micans belongs to Philodendron hederaceum var. hederaceum. Its velvet leaf surface, warm new growth and reddish leaf undersides give it a soft, colour-shifting heartleaf look.

Philodendron hederaceum var. hederaceum is a climber of wet tropical forest. In a pot, Philodendron micans develops node-forming stems, aerial-root nubs and roots that need an open, chunky substrate. Velvet leaves can show sun or handling marks quickly, especially in strong direct sun or after repeated rubbing.

Care for the velvet heartleaf vine

  • Light: Use bright indirect light; strong direct sun can dull or scorch the velvet surface.
  • Substrate: A fine but airy aroid mix works well, with bark, perlite or pumice to protect the roots from compaction.
  • Watering: Water when the top part of the mix has dried, then allow the pot to drain fully.
  • Temperature: Keep it warm, preferably 18–27 °C, and away from cold shelves or draughts.
  • Humidity: Moderate humidity can help new velvet leaves open with fewer curled edges.
  • Handling: Avoid rubbing the leaf surface, as velvet leaves can show marks from repeated touching.
  • Pruning: Trim long stems above a node to thicken the pot or root cuttings for a fuller basket.

Velvet marks, curled leaves and hidden pests

  • Curled new leaves: Check watering consistency, humidity and pests around the newest growth.
  • Dull or bleached patches: Move the plant away from direct sun and avoid pressing leaves against glass.
  • Small leaves on long vines: Add support, prune back or move to brighter indirect light.
  • Yellowing near the base: Check whether the potting mix is staying wet around the lower roots.
  • Fine speckling or distorted tips: Inspect velvet leaves closely for mites or thrips, which can be harder to see on textured surfaces.

Safety

Philodendron micans should be kept away from pets that chew plants. Like other heartleaf Philodendrons, it contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals that can irritate the mouth if eaten.

Velvet name and botanical placement

Philodendron micans was published as Philodendron micans Klotzsch ex K.Koch and is now included in Philodendron hederaceum var. hederaceum. Micans comes from Latin and means glittering or shining, matching the way the velvety surface reflects light at different angles. Philodendron points to tree-climbing growth, which also fits the plant’s node-forming stems and aerial-root nubs.

Choose Philodendron micans for velvety heart leaves, bronze new growth and a soft trailing habit with rich darker tones as the foliage matures.

Bought these multiple times!
Size: 5 Pack
These are among the few toys my dogs don’t rip apart in seconds! Eventually, Bailey (my oldest) does manage to rip out the squeaker, but it takes her way longer than any other toy I’ve ever bought. Both of my dachshunds absolutely love to squeak it. I have bought these a few times over the last few years and will definitely keep buying them!

Best Tennis Balls Ever
Color: Non-Squeaky - Pack of 12, Size: Medium
Admittedly, I haven't had these for very long, received on Jan 7 and today is Jan 19., 2021, only 12 days. But, we have a terrier mix who hasn't found a tennis ball she couldn't destroy given an hour or two. That is until now. Twelve Days later? She hasn't managed to destroy it at all. We have a puzzle cub that came with a ball inside it. It only took her a couple hours for the ball to rupture at the seam and another 10 minutes to completely destroy it beyond recognition. We put one of these balls in there and here we are over a week later. Not only has she not destroyed the ball but she hasn't been able to get this one out. She looks so silly trying to carry the ball inside the cube. It's hilarious. Anyway, I digress. I would totally recommend this toy for an yone who has a dog that lives to play fetch bit keeps destroying the balls. By the way, Update: Jan 31, 2021 and still going strong. No signs of damage.

Perfect tennis ball size.
Color: Non-Squeaky - Pack of 12, Size: Medium
Like most doggy balls they dont last as long as real tennis ball, but a real tennis ball can wear down her teeth. Great colors, tho in a few days they are yard colored cuz of the slobber and nature on it. Love the handy mesh bag for keeping put away until we need to get out a new one. My dog loves the no squeaky. To her squeaky is inside toy and too distracting for outdoor play. She really enjoys fetching this ball.
