Native habitat and growth pattern
Philodendron micans comes from the rainforests of Central and South America, where it trails and climbs beneath the canopy. In the wild, it attaches itself to trees with aerial roots, but indoors it’s equally happy cascading gracefully from a hanging pot or climbing up a moss pole.

Size
W12cm nursery pot x H25cm. Supplied in a plastic nursery pot.

Styling tips

  • Stunning trailing plant for shelves, sideboards, or hanging planters

  • Train up a moss pole for a more structured, climbing look

  • Adds texture and depth to plant collections with its velvety leaves

  • Perfect for creating a lush, rainforest-inspired interior

Philodendron micans care guide

Light requirements:
Enjoys bright, indirect light but will tolerate lower light levels. Avoid harsh direct sun which may scorch the leaves.

Watering:
Water when the top few centimetres of soil feel dry. Keep the soil lightly moist but never soggy.

Feeding:
Feed once a month in spring and summer with a balanced fertiliser. For the best results, use our vegan, organic Original Plant Food, specially made for tropical foliage.

Humidity:
Thrives in normal household humidity but appreciates extra misting or placement in a naturally humid room such as a kitchen or bathroom.

Pet safety:
Toxic if ingested — keep away from cats and dogs.

Propagation:
Easily propagated from stem cuttings in water or soil.

Why choose this plant?

Philodendron micans is one of the most unique trailing philodendrons, loved for its velvety texture and iridescent leaves that shift colour in different light. Unlike many rare philodendrons, it’s forgiving and easy to grow, making it a fantastic choice for beginners and collectors alike.

This plant adapts well to both trailing and climbing displays, so you can style it to suit your home. Whether you want a cascading waterfall of leaves from a shelf or a bold vertical accent on a moss pole, it delivers drama and lush greenery with very little effort.

As a gift, it’s a plant that always impresses. Its exotic look, low-maintenance care, and constant colour shifts make it a living piece of art — a thoughtful present for any plant lover.

FAQs

Why are the leaves on my Philodendron micans turning yellow?
This is usually a sign of overwatering. Let the soil dry slightly before watering again.

Can Philodendron micans grow in low light?
Yes — it will survive in lower light but grows best in bright, indirect conditions.

How fast does it grow indoors?
It’s a moderately fast grower and, with support, can trail or climb to impressive lengths.

Why do new leaves look pink?
New growth often emerges with a pinkish edge before maturing to green or bronze.

Book Review
Format: Paperback
{My thoughts} – We meet Danielle when her family is going through her great Aunts belongings. They are fighting over who gets what and who can take care of what it is that they get. Her great Aunt didn’t put a lot of thought into how terrible many of her family members are when it comes to possessions. She ends up finding her great Aunt’s scrapbooks and actually manages to keep a couple of them. When she gets back home she draws in one and brings to life Prince Neptune. This is when she learns that the sketchbook has magical properties. She is your average 7th grader just trying to find her way in a world of chaos. She wants to make friends and be popular but she is one of the least popular people in her school. She eventually draws and creates the perfect best friend and they do things together and make things work out, but then Madison learns she has freewill and she ditches Danielle for awhile. They do eventually come back together, but it isn’t until things get really rocky for Danielle and her other classmates because of the stunts that Prince Neptune pulls. This is a well written graphic novel and I really enjoyed reading through it as well as looking at the images within it’s pages. I enjoyed the storyline, because it helps to show children that it’s okay to not be one of the popular crowd, that you can make friends and blossom. Even if it’s done in some unconventional ways. I admit I’d read the second book in this series first, but it didn’t really skew my perception. It worked out alright and I look forward to more books in this series coming out in the future! They are worth the read and have good moral lessons within their pages. I am sure many children can relate to the characters within the books.

A lovable graphic novel!
Format: Kindle
Hello! I loved this book! Ive read it so many times and recently purchaced the sequel as well. Heres the basic story layout (spoilers ahead, read if you dare!) Dany is a girl who has a few friends that she hung out with in sixth grade. But shes transitioning tol seventh grade now, and she doesnt have any friends in her classes and lunch wave. But one day she finds a magical sketchbook that belonged to her aunt, but she doesnt know its magic, until she draws thehead of her favorite character (Prince Neptune) from a comic she reads called Solar Sisters, and his head comes to life! So she ends up drawing her perfect best friend: Shes popular, funny, gets good grades, and has good comebacks. Her name is Madison. She and Dany have the best time together, buying stuff at the mall with unlimited cash, and flying around town with their magic rings (thanks, magic sketchbook!) until when Dany brings Prince Neptune to school, during a big game at their gym, he busts in with a full body and takes over the school! Im not telling you the ending, get it for yourself and find out! Its a great book that explains all of middle school/ juinor highs struggles! Ive read it a ton of times! A must buy! GachaMemer33, OUT! :D

Good but eh...
Format: Kindle
I really enjoyed the book, I like how its different from other books, but when i reread the book, it seemed so cringey that she would like an evil character. I mean come on! Of course he was going become evil at once in the book, why else would he be a character?! It kind of has a predictable plot. So.... ya! (BTW, thats just my own opinons!)

Great GN about friendship w/ a supernatural twist
Format: Paperback
This full-color graphic novel is about a 7th grade girl named Dany. She has just started middle school and is pretty lonely. Her friends are in different classes now and have new in-jokes and stories that she doesn’t get anymore. So she’s feeling socially vulnerable when her eccentric (and loaded) great-aunt passes away and she ends up with the woman’s sketchbook. A magical sketchbook that will turn your drawing into real-life. So when Dany draws the head of her favorite anime character (uh yeah… JUST the head) and a super popular girl to be her friend, there are (as you can imagine!) some unintended consequences. This book is FUNNY but you won’t catch half the stuff unless you read the background texts - like the store names: “Hot Topic” is “Cool Subject” and the indredients list on the food have some interesting things listed on them. This book is like a mix of Shannon Hale’s Real Friends with a touch of Suee and the Shadow with a little sprinkle of Amulet. If you have readers about ages 10 and up who like graphic novels about friendships and would be up for something with a supernatural twist, then this would be a great recommendation. And… I see Gudsnuk has a sequel in store as well!
