philodendron guru Philodendron guttiferumPhilodendron guttiferum is so versatile, can be grown as a ground cover where it quickly fills empty spaces with its copious small leaves as it roots along the nodes, can also climb quickly given a support, or look equally fascinating hanging over the edge of a pot. We obtained the mother plant as Philodendron guttiferum but recently have discovered it may in fact be the green form of Monstera standleyana. Both have the same growth habit. ~Do Not

Philodendron guttiferum is so versatile, can be grown as a ground cover where it quickly fills empty spaces with its copious small leaves as it roots along the nodes, can also climb quickly given a support, or look equally fascinating hanging over the edge of a pot. 

We obtained the mother plant as Philodendron guttiferum but recently have discovered it may in fact be the green form of Monstera standleyana. Both have the same growth habit. 

~Do Not place in full sun. Though many Philodendron can be acclimated to full sun, our Philodendron have been grown under shaded, greenhouse conditions.

~Philodendron are considerably hardy & tolerant of a wide range of growing conditions, but for the best growth it is recommended to provide higher levels of humidity.

~If trying to get Philodendron to mature, give them a moss pole or wood board to climb! Make sure to keep the pole or board saturated though so aerial roots can attach & actually climb!
