Philodendron sp. 'Peltatum' – Silver-Veined Collector Aroid with Creeping Growth

Peltatum' Philodendron – Leaf Form, Silver Veining and Creeping Habit

Philodendron sp. 'Peltatum' is a striking, creeping aroid with heart-shaped leaves and bold silver veining. The foliage has a slightly quilted surface and develops a cool-toned sheen under bright light, giving it an almost metallic appearance. Often sold under the name Philodendron pastazanum 'Silver', this undescribed species shows key differences: thinner leaves, wider sinus, and colder-toned veining.

Each leaf unfurls with a soft, matte finish and grows increasingly wide over time, creeping laterally with thick, grounded stems. It's a must-have for collectors of rare Philodendron forms – especially those who love silver-toned foliage and ground-spreading species.

Key features and growth structure

  • Leaf shape: Cordate (heart-shaped) with a wide central sinus
  • Color: Cool green with pronounced silver-toned venation
  • Growth habit: Creeping; stems run horizontally along the substrate
  • Leaf size indoors: Mature leaves reach 30 – 50 cm in width
  • Surface: Lightly textured with subtle gloss and flattened margins

Botanical background and natural behavior

This plant is an undescribed Philodendron species, likely related to Philodendron pastazanum (described by K. Krause). It is often referred to in trade as 'Philodendron pastazanum silver' due to the leaf shape and creeping growth. Unlike upright Philodendrons, it sends runners horizontally and produces leaves spaced along a grounded stem. It thrives in warm, humid environments with ample substrate space.

Toxic to pets and humans if ingested – always place with care.

Philodendron sp. 'Peltatum' care guide

  • Light: Bright, indirect light enhances leaf size and silver tones
  • Watering: Keep evenly moist; allow top 2 – 3 cm of soil to dry before rewatering
  • Humidity: Prefers 60 – 80%; thrives in high humidity but adapts well
  • Temperature: Best kept between 18 – 28 °C
  • Soil: Rich, well-draining aroid mix with coco coir, bark, and perlite
  • Repotting: Every 1 – 2 years, or when runners reach container edge
  • Fertilising: Feed monthly with diluted balanced fertiliser
  • Propagation: Stem cuttings with nodes and visible roots – easy to root in moss
  • Hydroponics: Can adjust to semi-hydro with leca or pon if humidity stays high
  • Pruning: Trim runners to shape or reroot for bushier growth

Common problems and how to fix them

  • Drooping leaves: Often due to underwatering or cold stress – check root health
  • Yellowing margins: Result of overwatering or poor drainage
  • Leaf curl: Common in low humidity or compacted substrate
  • Pests (thrips, mealybugs): Wipe leaves often and treat early with neem or insecticidal soap
  • Root rot: Prevent by using airy mix and pots with excellent drainage

Helpful tips for best results

Grow this species in a wide pot or long box to give its runners space to spread. Use moss poles laid flat or coir slabs to encourage rooting along the stem. 'Peltatum' benefits from consistent warmth and gentle airflow – avoid soggy conditions. Silver patterning becomes more visible in cooler, filtered light and consistent humidity. Rotate gently to avoid lopsided growth.

Etymology and taxonomic note

Philodendron means “tree lover” in Greek, though this species grows as a terrestrial creeper. The name 'peltatum' refers to a shield-like leaf shape (from Latin pelta, shield), though it remains unofficial in taxonomy. Its similarities to Philodendron pastazanum place it near the same group, but differences in leaf texture, coloration, and vein pattern suggest it may represent a distinct, undescribed species.

So far, impressed
Size: California King
Probably not as high a quality as more expensive ones, but fits a California King bed with deep sides perfectly. I am a care-giver for an elderly male and have ordered several because the price is good and I can change them frequently if "accidents" happen. The Mattress Topper Pad does need a large-capacity washer.

Perfect mattress cover, not too thick.
Size: Queen
This mattress cover is exactly what I wanted. I already had a mattress pad, so it was perfect. It’s not thick, it’s just right for what I needed.

Permanent dents
Size: Queen
After months of using this mattress, I wouldn’t recommend it. It’s got permanent indentations where my husband and I routinely sleep. The mattress doesn’t puff back up so. We rotate it but you an only turn it to put the head down where your feet were and back. And there’s no flipping it over. It’s fairly comfortable, but we have a mini foam “wall” between my husband and I.

This Bedsure King Mattress Topper - Viscose Made from Bamboo: This ultra-soft, thick, and fluffy pillow top mattress pad is made from bamboo and is 21 inches deep with a breathable, moisture-wicking design. It’s available in black and measures 78x80 inches. While it’s a great choice, it does take a bit of time to be able to use when you first receive it. First, you need to remove the packaging and then put it in the dryer on low fluff for 20 minutes. After that, you should lay it across your bed for 24 hours to allow it to expand fully. So, plan on not being able to use it for 2 days. However, following these instructions will ensure that you get the best ultra-soft thickness and the perfect fit for your bed, plus you’ll feel comfortable when you’re ready to sleep on it. This Bedsure King Mattress Topper is incredibly comfortable. You’ll have the best nights’ sleep of your life with it. The quality of this topper is exceptional. I washed it, dried it, and it still came out perfect. There were no clumps or bunching. It laid out perfectly on our king bed mattress. This thing feels amazing. I didn’t want to get out of bed. Being a coffee addict, I didn’t mind not having it first thing in the morning because it’s so soft. My husband even approved of this topper. I like how both of lying on it, I don’t feel him moving around. This Bedsure King Mattress Topper is not too soft that you sink in. It’s just right. It’s like a soft hug on your body, but not wrapped around you. After a few days of sleep on it, my back didn’t hurt. I was surprised. I also like how this topper helps protect and keep your mattress from wearing out quickly. It provides long-lasting stability to your mattress. This Bedsure King Mattress Topper is the perfect thickness. I love how my sheets still fit over this and my mattress with no problems. The topper stays put on my mattress also. I like the added elastic band for support keeping it in mattress. We just bought a new mattress and I wanted a topper to add more comfort so this was a perfect addition. Ive bought other Bedsure items for our condo, we rent out and guests always like those toppers. This the first time getting a single topper with no memory foam added separately. I have to say I like the added comfort this Bedsure King Mattress Topper - Viscose Made from Bamboo Ultra Soft Thick Fluffy Pillow Top Mattress Pad with 21 Inch Deep Pocket, Breathable, Moisture Wicking, Black, 78x80 Inch adds to our mattress top. It’s just the right added comfort. You can’t see the wording Bedsure through sheets either. I get do my stretches in bed, yoga and still able to do with no problems. The price is spot on for a nice quality mattress pad. Definitely highly recommend getting this for your mattress. You will be glad you did. It will last a long time.
