Philodendron 'Birkin' ('White Measure')

Philodendron 'Birkin' is a compact, self-heading Philodendron with dark green leaves and fine pale striping. Its pinstripe pattern and upright growth give it a tidy profile in indoor pots, while the short stems keep the plant denser than many climbing Philodendron.

The plant grows from short, upright stems with thick petioles. New leaves can open with softer striping and deepen in contrast as they mature, while each leaf carries its own pattern.

Birkin traits and growth habit

  • Growth habit: Compact, self-heading Philodendron with upright stems and short internodes.
  • Leaf pattern: Dark green leaves carry fine white, cream, yellowish, or light green pinstripes.
  • Leaf variation: Every leaf develops its own stripe density, so the plant changes gradually as it grows.
  • Indoor size: Usually remains compact in pots, with slower, tighter growth when root space is limited.
  • Flowering: Mature plants can produce a spathe and spadix inflorescence indoors, but flowering is uncommon in typical home conditions.

Compact stems and striped leaves

Philodendron 'Birkin' develops as a dense, upright plant. The stems remain short, and the petioles hold leaves outward from the centre, so the pinstriped blades sit clearly around the crown as the plant fills out.

The pale striping sits within the leaf tissue and varies naturally. Some leaves may be strongly striped, while others may be greener or more lightly marked.

Growing Philodendron 'Birkin' indoors

  • Light: Place in bright filtered light. Strong direct sun can scorch the leaves, especially where the pale striping is broad.
  • Watering: Water when the upper part of the substrate has dried. Keep moisture even, then let excess water drain completely.
  • Substrate: Use a loose aroid mix with bark, coco coir or chips, perlite, pumice, and a small moisture-retentive fraction.
  • Drainage: Keep the plant in a pot with drainage holes and avoid dense, collapsed substrate around the central stem and lower roots.
  • Humidity: Around 50–60% or higher supports smooth leaf expansion and reduces dry tips on new growth.
  • Temperature: Keep between 18–28°C. Avoid cold draughts and cold wet substrate, which can slow the central growing point.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced houseplant fertiliser. Reduce feeding when new leaves slow down.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots fill the pot or watering becomes difficult to balance. Move up gradually to avoid excess wet substrate.
  • Pruning: Remove yellow, damaged, or weak leaves close to the stem with clean tools.
  • Semi-hydroponics: Can adapt to airy mineral substrates if roots are cleaned carefully and the central stem stays above the wet zone.
  • Propagation: Use a cutting or division with a viable node and growth point. A single detached leaf cannot become a new plant.

Common issues with Philodendron 'Birkin'

  • Yellowing leaves: Check whether the mix is staying wet for too long. Improve drainage and let the upper substrate dry further before watering again.
  • Brown tips: Often linked to dry air, irregular moisture, fertiliser buildup, or stressed roots. Flush the substrate and stabilise watering.
  • Small new leaves: Check light, root space, and feeding. A compact plant can still slow down when the root ball is depleted.
  • Weak central growth: Inspect the crown and upper roots for rot if new leaves emerge soft, distorted, or unusually pale.
  • Greener new growth: Some leaves may emerge with weaker striping or more green tissue. Remove fully reverted growth back to a healthy patterned point if plain green leaves continue.
  • Pest damage: Thrips, mites, scale, and mealybugs can hide around petioles and new leaves. Check closely if striping becomes scarred or growth twists.

Managing mature growth

Philodendron 'Birkin' keeps a more even shape when the pot is turned occasionally and the plant is not pushed into an oversized container. Older leaves can be removed once they yellow naturally, while healthy leaves are best left in place unless the plant needs reshaping.

If the plant becomes uneven, refresh the shape by removing weak or damaged growth. Stronger correction is best done during active growth, when the plant has enough light and warmth to produce new leaves from the central growing point.

Safety around pets and children

Keep Philodendron 'Birkin' away from pets and children. Like other Philodendron, it contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals that can irritate the mouth, throat, digestive tract, and sensitive skin. Wear gloves if you react to aroid sap, and wash hands after pruning.

Philodendron genus and Birkin names

Philodendron belongs to the Araceae family. The genus name is commonly translated from Greek roots as “tree-loving”, reflecting the tree-associated growth seen in many Philodendron. The names 'White Wave' and 'White Measure' are also used for this compact pinstriped cultivated Philodendron.

Philodendron 'Birkin' stays compact and upright, with pale striping that shifts naturally from leaf to leaf as the plant matures.

It’s a win
Size: 5X, Color: Burgundy
I like this shirt. It’s super comfortable I bought 2 sizes to big in order for it to be super loose fit and longer. I bought the red/maroon color and it’s a very nice color. It’s light weight so you aren’t so hot that it stinks. The size seems to be true to size really. It looks super good with a nice pair of leggings. Seems well made. Washes good. It’s a win

Lightweight sweater
Size: XX-Large, Color: Navy
This sweater is very soft and lightweight making it perfect for spring and fall. The colors are beautiful and match the posted images. I have bought several different colors because I like them so much. I have larger arms and the sleeves have plenty of room. They do not wrinkle easily and are holding up well with routine wear and washing. My husband accidentally washed my navy one in hot water and put it in the dryer which made it fade and shrink considerably so be careful to read the label on how to wash and dry the garment and it will be just fine:

Very nice, yet hangs
Size: XX-Large, Color: Ivory
Soft, pretty and cozy. The bright clean color of white is crisp and pure. Unfortunately, the shoulders are too big and it hangs or is too wide and in turn, the sleeves are too long. The rest of it is proportionally correct for my body, so a different size would not work.

Lightweight & good price for quality
Size: Medium, Color: Camel Heather
Lightweight as other reviewers noted. I purchased camel color & oatmeal heather color for travelling on long plane ride while wearing with leggings. Ribbed cuffs and hem, which I like. V neck just right on me. Cotton blend knit, good. Color as expected. Sleeves long enough (yay!) Probably will pill eventually, but I'm not worried about it at the moment. Doesn't look cheap, which is nice for inexpensive top. I don't wear leggings a lot, so I don't think these will get lots of use, so until they start looking pilly I'll use them when I need to. I'm 5'7" & weigh 115 lbs, 34 A, and 37 hip. Size small in both colors draped perfectly, looser fit style, not clingy or tight around the bum, which is what I wanted. It doesn't look baggy or boxy on me, but I'm relatively slim so it may not fit as I've described for those with bigger bustline and/or waistline measurements and/or tummy. I think it is flattering on me, so I'm keeping them. I would say the size S it runs slightly big for my body type if that helps. Everyone is different even when we wear the same size! After reading reviews I purchased S and M sizes. I returned the mediums as they'd be way to baggy on me and too big across the shoulders.

Fantastic Sweater for the Price!
Size: XX-Large, Color: Charcoal Heather, Size: XX-Large, Color: Charcoal Heather
I'll admit it, I was VERY skeptical about buying an Amazon Basics Sweater. I was sure the sizing or material or something would have to be off as the sweater was very reasonably priced. I was very happily proven wrong. This sweater is great. It's a v-neck, the most flattering fit for me and the v is not so deep as to be indecent, I can wear it easily and comfortably to work without a camisole underneath - even as a rather busty gal. The material is nice and soft. It's not cashmere soft, but it feels much better than a $20 sweater. It also washes pretty well, I've washed my sweater a few times and have had no shrinkage. I don't tend to put sweaters in the dryer, I air dry them - so that probably helps as well. After 2 or 3 washes, there is a slight amount of pilling underneath the arms where the sweater rubs against itself, but not a large or greatly noticeable amount. The sweater is also pretty long. I'm not sure I'd wear it as a tunic (with leggings), but I do wear it with skinny jeans comfortably and don't worry about it riding up in the back. I found it to be true to size. It's meant to fit a little looser and I like that. It's a great comfy sweater and I get a lot of compliments on it. This is a great value for the price - I will definitely try other Amazon Essentials. I own it in three colors (and counting). Update a year later - I just purchased 3 more of these sweaters for the upcoming winter. They are some of my absolute favorites. They are flattering even if you have a bit of tummy and not too heavy. These have withheld multiple washing with minimal beading (or whatever you call it when the little fuzzy balls appear at the high friction points). I have done some shaving on the sweater and I'm pretty fastidious about washing them on gentle and letting them air dry (like I do with most of my sweaters).
