Philodendron maximum

Philodendron maximum is an Araceae species from tropical South America, grown for broad green foliage and adult leaves with a semi-glossy surface. Mature blades can develop a narrowly ovate, sagittate or triangular-sagittate outline, giving older plants a strong vertical presence on support.

The climbing stem needs a stable vertical surface, while the expanding blades need open space around the plant. Bright filtered light, warmth, steady moisture and a chunky substrate help the roots stay aerated as the plant gains size.

Broad adult leaves and climbing growth in Philodendron maximum

  • Family: Araceae, the aroid family.
  • Foliage: Large green leaves with a semi-glossy surface.
  • Leaf shape: Adult blades can be narrowly ovate, sagittate or triangular-sagittate.
  • Petioles: Sturdy petioles hold the blades away from the climbing stem.
  • Growth habit: A climbing Philodendron that needs vertical room as it matures.
  • Indoor development: Leaf size increases gradually on support when warmth, light and root health stay steady.
  • Growth rate: Moderate to strong in warm, bright, humid conditions, slower in cooler or darker periods.
  • Safety: Toxic if chewed or swallowed by pets or children.

Indoor growth for Philodendron maximum

Philodendron maximum develops from an elongating stem with aerial-root nodes. A pole, plank or similar support gives the stem contact points, while an airy, evenly moist substrate keeps oxygen around the thicker roots.

The species is associated with wet tropical forest in South America, with records from Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Brazil and Bolivia. Indoors, the same growth pattern needs warm temperatures, filtered light and enough space for each new blade to open without rubbing against a wall, shelf or neighbouring plant.

Care for Philodendron maximum foliage

  • Light: Place Philodendron maximum in bright filtered light. Harsh direct sun can mark large leaves.
  • Water: Water after part of the mix has dried. A large pot that stays wet for too long can stress the roots.
  • Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity helps new leaves expand cleanly.
  • Temperature: Keep warm and protected from cold windows, cold floors and draughts.
  • Substrate: Use a chunky aroid mix with enough structure to stay open around thick roots.
  • Support: Give the climbing stem a sturdy pole, plank or similar vertical surface before the plant becomes heavy.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots fill the pot, the mix has compacted or the support no longer suits the stem height.
  • Fertilising: Feed lightly during active growth; reduce feeding when light levels and growth slow.
  • Propagation: Propagate from stem cuttings with at least one node, kept warm and humid while rooting.
  • Pruning: Remove damaged leaves at the petiole base or shorten an overlong stem above a healthy node.
  • Semi-hydroponics: Semi-hydro can work when roots are adapted gradually and the reservoir stays clean and oxygenated.

Philodendron maximum leaf tearing, yellowing and slow growth

  • Yellow lower leaves: Check for wet roots, old compacted mix or a pot that dries too slowly.
  • Damaged new leaves: Expanding blades can tear if humidity drops or the leaf rubs against nearby surfaces.
  • Slow growth: Cold conditions, weak light or root stress can interrupt leaf expansion.
  • Pests: Inspect leaf backs, petioles and new growth for thrips, spider mites, mealybugs and scale.

Philodendron maximum toxicity

Philodendron maximum has insoluble calcium oxalate crystals in its leaves, petioles and stems, so it should be kept away from pets and children that may chew plants.

Botanical background of Philodendron maximum

Philodendron was described by Heinrich Wilhelm Schott in 1829 in Wiener Zeitschrift für Kunst, Litteratur, Theater und Mode, and the genus name comes from Greek roots meaning tree-loving. Philodendron maximum was described by K. Krause and published in Das Pflanzenreich in 1913. The species epithet maximum is the neuter form of Latin maximus, meaning largest or greatest.

A large-growing climbing Philodendron with broad semi-glossy leaves, sturdy petioles and a strong mature form on support.

Highly effective. Application requires patience.
Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Things that I loved about this sunscreen lotion: Excellent barrier against the sun rays No nasty chemicals in the ingredients list Ability to purchase a smaller bottle Price is competitive with similar items My child had NO reaction to this product while in the sun and water Things that I didn't care for: How thick it is (although it could be part of why it is excellent protection) How long it takes to apply, multiple times to rub in How chalky white it is on the skin before absorption My daughter has eczema. In her toddler and younger years, it was in the joints of the arms and legs. She is now 9 and began having breakouts on her face after we spent a day in the sun or at the beach. Pink, flaky areas would hurt, even on her eyelids. We took her to a couple of doctors and they suggested changing her sunscreen to one that is only mineral based. I was beginning to think she was allergic to the sun or sand. We have used this a couple of times now at the pool and beach and she has not had another episode. Although this goes on thick and you have to rub it in for a few minutes, I will continue using it on her face. I did purchase a different brand of mineral sunscreen for easier application on her body, but she wasn't having a severe reaction elsewhere. If your child has any eczema issues that are exacerbated with the sun, salt or chlorine, I would highly recommend this product for at least the face. It's worth it.

Better now than before
Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1), Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I first bought this sunscreen in May 2022, and I got it again now, June 2024. The product is different now and some of the changes are noticeable in the pictures I've included: new look and shape to the bottle, weighs a bit less (great for TSA if you travel), the ingredients are slightly different. What you can't see in the photos is that it definitely smells better than it did before and it goes on your skin clearer than it used to; it would make me look like a ghost before, whereas now, it just makes my face shiny. It feels kind of dry when you apply it, definitely non-greasy. It still holds up great while sweating and swimming. And it definitely does its job of protecting from sunburns. Overall, I'm happy with the changes they've made and I would recommend it to anyone looking for durable mineral sunscreen for sensitive skin.

No stinging eyes for 6 yrs
Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Out of all the sunscreens I've tried (zinc or otherwise) Alba Botanica is the only one that has not stung my eyes. Been using continuously for around 6 years. 7-8 years ago tried Neutrogena zinc sunscreen. It didn't sting initially but started stinging 1 year after continuous use. And Alba Botanica zinc Spf 50 does leave a white cast, just less intense than Neutrogena zinc.

Great on paper, but milky
Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Based on my research I think it's one of the best physical sunscreens. Highest active ingredient percent and good price. It is quite white and harder to melt in and I still tan quite deeply.
