Philodendron pastazanum

Philodendron pastazanum is a ground-creeping species in the Araceae family, with broad green leaves, long petioles and thick stems that move across the substrate surface. Mature leaves become large and broadly ovate to peltate, with visible venation and a wide blade held above the creeping stem.

The repent stem travels over the substrate and needs surface room as new leaves develop. A wide pot allows the plant to extend naturally while keeping the growth point above the mix.

  • Leaf shape: Broadly ovate to peltate green blades with a wide base.
  • Venation: Strong basal and lateral veins become clearer as leaves size up.
  • Growth habit: Thick creeping to repent stem that travels across the substrate surface.
  • Native range: Ecuador to Peru, associated with wet tropical forest.

Philodendron pastazanum care for creeping growth

Use a wide, stable pot for Philodendron pastazanum and keep the creeping stem visible above the mix. The roots need moisture and oxygen at the same time, so a chunky aroid substrate is safer than a dense, water-retentive potting soil.

  • Pot choice: A wide pot gives the creeping stem space to extend without being buried.
  • Light: Bright indirect light, with protection from direct sun that can mark the broad leaf surface.
  • Water: Water when the upper substrate has started to dry, then let the pot drain fully.
  • Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity helps large leaves expand with fewer dry edges.
  • Temperature: Keep warm and stable, ideally above 18 °C, and protect the root zone from cold wet conditions.
  • Substrate: Use a coarse aroid mix with bark, mineral structure and fibre around the roots.
  • Repotting: Repot when the creeping stem reaches the pot edge, roots fill the container, or the substrate starts to break down.
  • Fertilising: Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced houseplant fertiliser at diluted strength.
  • Growth rate: Growth is usually steady indoors, with larger leaves developing when the stem has room to travel.

Philodendron pastazanum pruning, propagation and mineral substrates

  • Pruning: Remove damaged leaves close to the petiole base and keep the creeping stem above the substrate surface.
  • Propagation: Propagate from stem sections with at least one node and healthy root or aerial-root tissue.
  • Semi-hydro: Suitable for mineral or semi-hydro substrates if the rhizome-like stem stays above the medium and the roots remain oxygenated.
  • Training: Guide the stem across the pot surface rather than burying it into the mix.

Philodendron pastazanum stem, roots and broad-leaf issues

  • Soft creeping stem: Check whether the stem is buried or sitting against wet, compact substrate.
  • Yellowing leaves: Inspect roots if the mix stays wet deep in the pot.
  • Damaged leaf edges: Large leaves can mark from dry air, irregular watering or physical contact.
  • Root issues: Slow growth with yellowing leaves often points to poor drainage, compacted substrate or cold wet roots.
  • Pests: Check the leaf undersides, petioles and new growth for spider mites, thrips, mealybugs and scale.

Philodendron pastazanum safety and botanical background

Keep Philodendron pastazanum away from pets and children because its tissues contain calcium oxalate crystals. Sap may irritate sensitive skin.

Heinrich Wilhelm Schott published Philodendron in Wiener Zeitschrift für Kunst 3: 780 in 1829; the genus name comes from Greek-derived roots meaning “tree-loving.” Philodendron pastazanum was described by Kurt Krause in Notizblatt des Botanischen Gartens und Museums zu Berlin-Dahlem 15: 42 in 1940. The epithet pastazanum is formed from Pastaza with the Latinized ending -anum, meaning “of” or “from” Pastaza.

In a wide container, mature Philodendron pastazanum develops broad peltate leaves above a thick creeping stem that stays visible at the surface.

Our dog loves it but it wasn’t durable enough to last
Color: Dogwood Jack, Size: Large, Color: Dogwood Jack, Size: Large
Our lab took to it as soon as we gave it to her. Perfect size for our 80 lb yellow lab. However, now that it’s in about 10 days, she’s able to break off chunks from this bone that are dime size or larger, and we have to throw it away

No problems after a year and a half
Color: Dogwood & Calming, Size: Medium
Have been regularly buying these for my corgi for about a year and a half. The 2 pack lasts about a month or 2 each time. Pieces break off in small enough pieces that they safely pass through his digestive system. He gnaws each one down to about 1/4 the original size before we take it away and give him a new one. He continues to have regular bowel movements and has a healthy appetite so I can’t imagine any problems arising after so long. I have tried other alternatives and every other similar chew breaks off in larger pieces and didn’t feel comfortable letting him chew/eat them. I noticed there are a few 1 star reviews saying their dogs got sick off these but after a year and a half I have had 0 issues with this product. I guess it depends on the dog and how big of pieces they are swallowing. My dog ingests pieces about the size of a grain of rice so just pay attention and you should be fine.

Long lasting and safer alternative to sticks
Color: Dogwood & Calming, Size: Medium
These are great, very durable, and have lasted a very long time. Much safer for my dogs than the random sticks they find in the yard. They do get shorter with chewing eventually, but they don't break off in little chunks like I've seen with some nylon chews, and they don't splinter like wood. Medium size works well for both my 16 lb Cavalier and my 60 lb Pyrenees/Golden mix. They're both moderate-to-aggressive chewers, though size obviously affects how much damage they can do. I wish you could buy the hemp chew separately because that one is very much a favorite in my house, so after 2 years and 2 purchases, I have barely any left of the remaining hemp chew, but still 2 of the dogwood chews that neither dog is as interested in anymore. I'd love to buy a couple more of just the hemp one.

Your dog will thank you.
Color: Dogwood & Fresh Breath, Size: Large
My dogs loves to chew on these. They make a small mess but not as bad as other chews. They are food for keeping teeth clean.

Nice chew toy
Color: Dogwood Mushroom, Size: Medium, Color: Dogwood Mushroom, Size: Medium
Super durable and puppy loves it. It was a bit hard for her at first but now at 5 months it’s one of her favorite things to gnaw on! It is heavy for the size but seems to be great quality and has given many hours of chew time with minimal wear.
