Philodendron hastatum 'Silver Queen' ('Silver Sword')

Philodendron hastatum 'Silver Queen', also known as 'Silver Sword' in the hobby, is a silver-leaved climbing Philodendron with arrow-shaped juvenile foliage and a metallic silver-green to blue-silver surface. The leaves are smooth, pointed and narrow at first, then can lengthen into a more spear-shaped outline as the plant climbs.

The species Philodendron hastatum is native to south-eastern Brazil, where it grows as a climbing aroid in wet tropical conditions. In cultivation, 'Silver Queen' needs a warm position, an airy root zone and a firm vertical surface so the stem can lengthen without collapsing under its own weight.

Philodendron hastatum 'Silver Queen' silver foliage and climbing growth

  • Foliage: Metallic silver-green to blue-silver leaves with a smooth surface.
  • Leaf shape: Juvenile blades are arrow-shaped and can become longer and more spear-like as the plant matures.
  • Growth habit: Climbing Philodendron with nodes and aerial-root growth along an elongating stem.
  • Support: A pole, plank or board helps the stem stay upright as the leaves lengthen.
  • Indoor character: A fast, vertical-growing aroid with a clear silver foliage effect.

Care for Philodendron hastatum 'Silver Queen'

Philodendron hastatum 'Silver Queen' grows best with bright filtered light, steady warmth and a chunky substrate that does not stay dense around the roots. Good stem support matters early, because the plant climbs from node to node and the silver leaves become more impressive when the growth stays upright.

  • Light: Place Philodendron hastatum 'Silver Queen' in bright filtered light. Harsh direct sun can scorch or dull the pale silver leaf surface.
  • Water: Water when part of the potting mix has dried, then let excess water drain fully.
  • Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity helps new leaves expand smoothly on active climbing stems.
  • Temperature: Keep warm and stable, ideally above 18 °C, and avoid cold draughts or cold wet substrate.
  • Substrate: Use a chunky, fast-draining aroid mix with bark, mineral particles and enough air space around the roots.
  • Pot choice: Use a pot that drains freely and can hold the support securely without tipping.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots fill the pot, the substrate breaks down, or the support no longer sits firmly.
  • Fertilising: Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced houseplant fertiliser at diluted strength.
  • Growth rate: Growth is usually moderate to fast indoors when warmth, light and root aeration are stable.

Philodendron hastatum 'Silver Queen' pruning, propagation and mineral substrates

  • Pruning: Remove damaged leaves or cut back a long stem above a node if the plant needs reshaping.
  • Propagation: Propagate from stem cuttings with at least one node and healthy aerial-root tissue.
  • Semi-hydro: Suitable for mineral or semi-hydro substrates if roots are kept warm, oxygenated and not stagnant.
  • Training: Tie or guide young stems before the internodes harden, so the plant climbs cleanly from the base.

Philodendron hastatum 'Silver Queen' leaf marks, long internodes and pests

  • Long gaps between leaves: Move closer to brighter filtered light if the stem stretches and the leaves stay small.
  • Yellow lower leaves: Check for wet, compacted substrate or a pot that stays damp for too long.
  • Brown patches: Direct sun, dry roots or physical leaf damage can mark the silver surface.
  • Root issues: Slow growth with soft stems or yellowing leaves often points to poor drainage or cold wet roots.
  • Pests: Check new growth, leaf backs and petioles for thrips, spider mites, mealybugs and scale.

Philodendron hastatum 'Silver Queen' toxicity

The leaves and stems of Philodendron hastatum 'Silver Queen' contain insoluble calcium oxalate crystals and should stay out of reach of pets and children.

Philodendron hastatum name origin and publication

Heinrich Wilhelm Schott described the genus Philodendron in 1829 in Wiener Zeitschrift für Kunst, Litteratur, Theater und Mode. The name comes from Greek philo- or philein, meaning loving, and dendron, meaning tree. Philodendron hastatum was described by K. Koch and Sello and published in Index Seminum in Horto Botanico Berolinensi 1854(App.): 7, issued in 1855. The species epithet hastatum means spear-shaped or armed with a spear.

With its blue-silver leaves and climbing growth, Philodendron hastatum 'Silver Queen' is a strong choice for a vertical aroid display.

Squeaky Spiky Ball (Submitted by OG, The Conqueror)
Size: 4.5 Set of 4
FIVE OUT OF FIVE PAWS. THIS IS THE GREATEST BALL EVER MADE. My name is OG, and I am a machine built for destruction. For years, I have systematically dismantled every supposed "heavy-duty" toy that dared cross my path. They all fail. They all surrender. But this Spiky Ball? This is my worthy adversary. This is The One. If you have mighty jaws like mine, this isn’t just a toy—it’s a commitment. The Aesthetics & Grip (5/5 Jaws) This ball is bright orange. This is important because it means my Dog-Parent cannot pretend they don't see it when I drop it, covered in drool, directly on their laptop. The spikes are the best part. They are not soft and pointless like some other toys. These spikes dig right into my gums. It's the perfect texture for a serious, focused chew session. Whether I'm running full-speed or we are locked in a heavy-duty Tug-of-War, those spikes give me the grip I need to apply maximum rotational torque. This ball never slips. It demands I bring my A-game. The Squeak: My Personal Battle Horn (5/5 Ears) The volume on this thing is set to LEGENDARY. They say a quiet dog is a happy dog. WRONG. A loud dog is an active, conquering dog. The squeak is sharp, loud, and glorious. It's not a gentle little peep—it's a declaration. When I hear it, I know the hunt is on. More importantly, when I make it squeak, the humans instantly know I require attention, praise, or the immediate launch of the ball across the yard. It is the best attention-getter I own. Durability: Unstoppable Force Meets Immovable Object (5/5 Eternal Glory) This ball is a mystery. It has no discernible weaknesses. I have performed the full Pitbull Destruction Protocol on this Spiky Ball every day for weeks: The Gnaw: Prolonged, focused effort to crack the surface—(Failure. It laughs.) The Shake: Head-whipping force designed to dislocate any internal components—(Failure. The squeak remains.) The Backyard Abandonment: Left in the rain and dirt for maximum entropy—(Failure. Still orange.) Most toys are a snack. This toy is a lifetime project. It truly is built for aggressive chewers, and I respect that. It is the only toy that challenges me. Recommendation If your dog is serious about their job (chewing, fetching, and being loud), you must buy this. It is the only thing that stands up to my power. It’s loud, it’s spiky, and it’s the best. Go buy it now, and tell them OG sent you. OG, currently performing a full-body gnaw and shake, signing off.

Best squeaky ball for the buck!!
Size: 4.5 Set of 4
my 90lb Pit, LOVES these balls.. and they have been lasting for months!! The squeaker is ok, those are lasting a week or two.. but that's better than average for my guy. At $4 a ball in the 4 pack, it's a great deal for a dog that loves a new toy every month .. I give him one at a time, the 4 pack lasts for many months of fun.

Durable and Fun!
Size: 4.5 Set of 4
My dog LOVES these balls and barks with excitement when the box arrives. These balls are super durable and a great size that does not allow them to roll under cabinets and sofas.

Aggressive chewer squeaky ball
Size: 4.5 Set of 4
These are fun for about a day for my young Doberman. They tear and the squeaker gets dislodged inside the ball making it not so fun anymore. Have purchased multiple times bc they’re inexpensive but found one he cannot chew through now online Not for aggressive chewers sorry.
