Native habitat and growth pattern
Philodendron micans comes from the rainforests of Central and South America, where it trails and climbs beneath the canopy. In the wild, it attaches itself to trees with aerial roots, but indoors it’s equally happy cascading gracefully from a hanging pot or climbing up a moss pole.

Size
W12cm nursery pot x H25cm. Supplied in a plastic nursery pot.

Styling tips

  • Stunning trailing plant for shelves, sideboards, or hanging planters

  • Train up a moss pole for a more structured, climbing look

  • Adds texture and depth to plant collections with its velvety leaves

  • Perfect for creating a lush, rainforest-inspired interior

Philodendron micans care guide

Light requirements:
Enjoys bright, indirect light but will tolerate lower light levels. Avoid harsh direct sun which may scorch the leaves.

Watering:
Water when the top few centimetres of soil feel dry. Keep the soil lightly moist but never soggy.

Feeding:
Feed once a month in spring and summer with a balanced fertiliser. For the best results, use our vegan, organic Original Plant Food, specially made for tropical foliage.

Humidity:
Thrives in normal household humidity but appreciates extra misting or placement in a naturally humid room such as a kitchen or bathroom.

Pet safety:
Toxic if ingested — keep away from cats and dogs.

Propagation:
Easily propagated from stem cuttings in water or soil.

Why choose this plant?

Philodendron micans is one of the most unique trailing philodendrons, loved for its velvety texture and iridescent leaves that shift colour in different light. Unlike many rare philodendrons, it’s forgiving and easy to grow, making it a fantastic choice for beginners and collectors alike.

This plant adapts well to both trailing and climbing displays, so you can style it to suit your home. Whether you want a cascading waterfall of leaves from a shelf or a bold vertical accent on a moss pole, it delivers drama and lush greenery with very little effort.

As a gift, it’s a plant that always impresses. Its exotic look, low-maintenance care, and constant colour shifts make it a living piece of art — a thoughtful present for any plant lover.

It’s a moderately fast grower and, with support, can trail or climb to impressive lengths.

New growth often emerges with a pinkish edge before maturing to green or bronze.

Good Shelves
Color: B. Rustic Brown - Americana Farmhouse Style, Number Of Shelves: 3, Size: 22.5inches
These shelves are really nice quality and look as advertised. The hardware included was great quality, metal drywall anchors and good screws. They were easy to install, and make even/level with each other. My only gripe is the price, but I'm very satisfied with the product overall.

Attractive, easy to install, nicely equipped hardware package.
Color: B. Rustic Brown - Americana Farmhouse Style, Number Of Shelves: 2, Size: 22.5inches
These are pretty doggone nice shelves and I appreciate the fact that they are not made of solid particle board. Yes they are made of an engineered product, but they are lightweight and strong…and look better than particle board products and more costly than their actual price. Easy installation system with the bracket…not fussy like some are. An especially thoughtful touch is the variety of hardware that is included. Also a tiny level for use when installing them. What? …So they can be installed correctly? I was pleasantly surprised by this inclusion.

If the set screws were white the shelves would be perfect.
Color: C. White - Modern Minimalist Style, Number Of Shelves: 3, Size: 15.7inches
I'd give 4 1/2 if there was one. The shelves thwmself are nice I just don't like the visible little black set screws. The shelves themself look great and are not wobbly at all if you install correctly. I purposely installed the bracket upside down because of the little black setting screws; I didnt want them showing because the shelves are above eye level and the screws are black and I didn't want them showing. But that made the shelf lean amd wobbly so I turned them back over the way they are supposed to be and that made them level and sturdy. I guess I'll paint the little screws.
