Philodendron billietiae has longer than wide leaves that can get upwards of 24” in length as the plant matures. Their leaves point downward with slight arches in their leaf petioles, making them a great specimen for a shelf or somewhere they can be admired from above. These are a slow growing, vining specimen. Their colors range from a deep green, variegated, to nearly black and are priced accordingly. 

GENERAL CARE:

For best color and performance, grow in a bright, indirect light and allow soil to dry between watering. Provide a pole or support to climb and plant in a well-draining, aroid potting substrate.

Philodendron are a tropical, vining plant native to tropical forests! They belong in the Araceae (Aroid) family along with Monstera, Epipremnum, and other aroids. In nature, they are found growing up trees, anchoring in place with aerial roots. As the plant matures and gains more height/stability, their leaves can get much larger.
