Philodendron 'Glad Hands' (quercifolium)

Philodendron 'Glad Hands' is a narrow form of Philodendron pedatum, grown for deeply divided leaves with long, slim lobes that spread from the blade like fingers. The full leaf shape develops over time, so young plants can look slimmer and less divided before the stem gains size and support.

This plant grows from a climbing stem with clear nodes and aerial roots. As the stem extends, each node can produce another leaf and attach to support through new root points. A pole, plank, or trellis helps the plant anchor, keeps the stem upright, and gives divided leaves space to spread.

Narrow lobes and node-by-node growth

  • Growth habit: Climbing Philodendron with nodes, aerial roots, and a stem that responds well to vertical support.
  • Leaf shape: Long, narrow lobes give older leaves a hand-like outline.
  • Development: Leaf divisions become clearer as the plant gains size, support, and stronger root growth.
  • Petiole spread: Leaves are held away from the stem, so established plants need space around the support.
  • Root behaviour: Aerial roots help the climbing stem attach and support larger foliage over time.

Pedatum background and quercifolium name

Philodendron pedatum (Hook.) Kunth was published in Enumeratio Plantarum 3:49 in 1841. It is an accepted South American species that grows as a climber in wet tropical habitats. Philodendron quercifolium Engl., published in Botanische Jahrbücher für Systematik 26:546 in 1899, is now placed under Philodendron pedatum.

The quercifolium name refers to oak-like divided leaves and still appears around this plant in cultivation. This narrow form shows a slimmer, more finger-like expression of pedatum-style leaf division once the stem is rooted and climbing. Older leaves gain a more defined outline, not just a larger size.

Care for divided leaves

  • Light: Provide bright filtered light. Strong indirect light supports shorter internodes and more developed leaves, while harsh direct sun can scorch exposed lobes.
  • Watering: Water thoroughly once the upper substrate has dried slightly. Keep moisture steady during active growth, but do not leave the pot standing in water.
  • Substrate: Use a chunky aroid mix with bark or coco chips, perlite or pumice, and a moisture-holding base. The roots need both moisture and air around them.
  • Pot choice: Choose a pot with drainage holes and enough depth to hold the support firmly. Avoid oversized pots that keep the lower stem wet for too long.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots fill the pot or the support becomes unstable. Move up gradually so the root zone stays aerated.
  • Support: Add a pole, plank, or trellis early. Attach the stem loosely so aerial roots can reach the support without being crushed.
  • Humidity: Aim for moderate to high humidity. Around 50–70% helps the narrow lobes open without dry tips or tears.
  • Temperature: Keep at about 18–28°C. Cool, wet conditions slow root activity and can damage the lower stem.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced fertiliser. Reduce feeding when light and leaf production slow down.
  • Growth rate: Expect moderate climbing growth once rooted and supported. Leaf shape improves gradually as the stem strengthens.
  • Pruning: Remove yellowing leaves and trim stretched stems above a node if the plant needs reshaping. Healthy cut sections can be used for propagation.
  • Placement: Give the plant room around its support so the lobed leaves can spread without rubbing against walls, shelves, or neighbouring plants.
  • Semi-hydroponics: This Philodendron can adapt to mineral or semi-hydro substrates if roots are transitioned gradually and the reservoir is kept clean.
  • Propagation: Take stem cuttings with at least one node and preferably an aerial-root nub. Keep cuttings warm and humid while roots form.

Juvenile leaves, torn lobes and stem stretch

  • Leaves staying juvenile: Check support, light, and root health. A divided leaf shape develops more reliably on a climbing, well-rooted stem.
  • Yellow lower leaves: Inspect the substrate and roots. Persistent wetness around the lower stem can cause older leaves to decline quickly.
  • Brown lobe tips: Look for dry roots, low humidity, fertiliser buildup, or hot sun through glass.
  • Long gaps between leaves: The stem may be reaching for light or growing away from its support. Move it into brighter filtered light and secure new growth.
  • Torn new leaves: New lobes can catch while unfurling. Keep watering stable and humidity moderate rather than forcing the leaf open.
  • Loose stem attachment: If the stem pulls away from the support, retie it gently at the nodes and guide new aerial roots toward the surface.
  • Pests: Check leaf undersides, petiole bases, and cataphylls for thrips, mites, scale, and mealybugs.

Pet safety and skin irritation

Philodendron 'Glad Hands' should be kept away from pets and children that may chew leaves or stems. Philodendron contains calcium oxalate crystals, which can irritate the mouth, throat, and digestive tract if ingested. Sap may irritate sensitive skin after pruning or propagation.

Name meaning and botanical background

Philodendron means “tree-loving”, a reference to the climbing habit common in the genus. The epithet pedatum means foot-like, matching the divided leaf outline of Philodendron pedatum. Quercifolium combines Latin roots for oak and leaf, referring to an oak-like leaf shape. The name 'Glad Hands' suits the hand-like spread of the leaf lobes.

Choose Philodendron 'Glad Hands' for a climbing Philodendron with slim, fingered leaves and a distinctive narrow-lobed outline.

Sounds great and the 360 spatial sound mapping is amazing.
I was very happy with my previous AVR, but when it failed I took the opportunity to get up to date and after some research I settled on this. I am so happy I did. The positive reviews were not lying. This AVR sounds down right amazing considering the price point. Love the Chromecast feature as well as the Spotify integration. However, it's the movie audio that really shines. After the very short calibration, their 360 spatial sound mapping when switched on really makes such a huge difference. Most of us will not be able to make a dedicated theater room, so this do the corrections for speaker placement is next level. Not to mention their virtual speaker placement technology. I don't know how it's done, but when I 1st used it, this thing had me amazed at sound placement from areas where the sound should be coming from, but I know I had no speaker there. Even the short calibration was impressive. At the end of the process it knows not only where you are in relation to listening position, but it also knows exactly where each and every speaker is relative to each other in the room including their height. Remarkable. OCD me verified the measurements which you can displayed, with a laser measuring tool. Now my biggest issue is that I now feel the need to go through all my movie collection to hear the difference.

Product does not function as befits a brand name like Sony
Review updated after TWO returns to the repair center and MANY calls to both Support and the CS Escalation department: I'M STILL NOT PLEASED WITH THIS PRODUCT. During startup, this receiver bounces back and forth from input source to input source as if I triggered a roulette wheel. Where will it finally stop? In my case, I most often use Video input. Sometimes during startup, it will momentarily display the Video input as expected, but will then start jumping/fishing around to other inputs types, including those I've never used. Eventually, it may return to the Video input, but it will not display the actual video or audio content. Instead, it just displays a black banner that reads VIDEO. I then have to turn the receiver off and on again hoping that maybe it will work this time. Neither Sony's escalation Team, nor the repair facility will answer the simple question, "What SHOULD it do when I first turn it on?" In addition, on at least two occasions, during startup, I saw PLEASEWAIT written across the display for 75 seconds before the device actually started up OR rebooted. (Note: THIS issue appears to be resolved by the repair center replacing a circuit board.) Another related annoyance is that when video content changes (e.g., from a show to a commercial, back to a commercial on YouTube), each break in the chain displays 5+ seconds of black screen even though you can hear the audio. This doesn't sound like much, but when it does this every time, it gets annoying AND is infinitely longer than my previous 10 y/o receiver.) About 2-3 times an hour, while viewing consistent content from the same input, the screen will suddenly go black, then the audio drops out, and then it will flash a HDCP 2.3 warning blue screen. Unacceptable! In short, and IMHO, the audio quality is very good, but basic functionality is SEVERELY clunky. Again, IMHO, this product should have NEVER gone to market. The combination of poor functionality AND a dismal customer experience forever diminishes Sony's former world-class brand status. P.S.: Sony's Escalation department told me that they simply DO NOT provide refunds if you've had the product more than 30 days. So make sure that you test ALL functionality as soon as it arrives. Caveat emptor.
