The Philodendron scandens, also known as the heart vine, is a climbing or trailing plant native to the tropical forests of Central and South America, prized for its soft, shiny tender green heart-shaped leaves. Its flexible stems and cordate leaves create a romantic and natural effect that suits any setting — cascading from a shelf, hanging like a curtain from a support, or forming a leafy cloud in a hanging planter.

Its exceptional tolerance to low light and rapid growth make it one of the most versatile trailing plants in the decorative trailing plants collection and the low-light plants selection.

Which Philodendron variety to choose?

The Philodendron genus includes dozens of species with very distinct shapes. Here’s how to place the Philodendron scandens among the references in the Philodendron collection — to choose between a Philodendron and a Monstera, as both genera often share the same locations and uses:

  • Philodendron scandens (this plant) — shiny tender green cordate leaves, very flexible trailing or climbing habit. The most versatile and easiest to care for in the range.
  • Philodendron Birkin — dark green foliage with fine white stripes, compact upright habit. The choice for precise graphic appeal and a more structured form.
  • Philodendron melanochrysum — large velvety dark green leaves with light veins, climbing habit. The choice for spectacular XXL foliage and rare velvety texture.
  • Philodendron White Princess — white and green variegated foliage, upright habit. The choice for striking variegation and very graphic leaves.
  • Philodendron Diamond Variegata — elegant green and cream marbling. The choice for softer, more natural variegation.
  • Philodendron Pedatum — spectacularly cut foliage, climbing habit, large size. The choice for a very architectural tropical effect in a large space.

Light & placement

Philodendron scandens is one of the few tropical plants that truly tolerates low light — a rare asset that makes it the ideal solution for dark rooms and corners without direct windows where most tropicals refuse to thrive.

  • Light: indirect to partial shade — tolerates shade, just avoid direct sunlight which burns the leaves.
  • Locations: bedroom, bathroom, office, dimly lit hallway — anywhere few plants survive.
  • Temperature: 15 to 27 °C, tolerates moderate fluctuations.

When hanging near a window, grow it trailing — on a moss pole in a less bright corner, grow it climbing to enjoy its fast growth and quickly cover a wall or shelf.

Watering & care

Philodendron scandens prefers a slightly moist but never soggy substrate — let the top 3 to 5 centimeters dry out between waterings, a rule valid for most indoor tropical plants.

  • Frequency: about once a week in spring-summer, every two weeks in winter.
  • Drainage: essential — use a pot with drainage holes and well-draining substrate.
  • Humidity: occasionally mist the foliage to replicate the tropical atmosphere.
  • Fertilizer: a liquid fertilizer for green plants diluted once a month in spring and summer.
  • Pruning: pinch stems regularly to encourage branching and a bushier habit.

Philodendron scandens roots very easily in water — cut a stem with a node, place it in a glass of water, and roots appear in 2 to 3 weeks, just as described for tropical plant cuttings.

Decor ideas & plant pairings

The flexibility and fast growth of Philodendron scandens make it an ideal structural plant for hanging arrangements — it quickly fills empty spaces and adds volume in the darkest corners.

  • For a very graphic trio hanging arrangement, pair Philodendron scandens with a Pothos and a Monstera adansonii — the heart-shaped leaves of scandens, the marbled leaves of Pothos, and the perforated leaves of Monstera create three very complementary textures in the same green palette.
  • On a moss pole in a dim corner, let Philodendron scandens climb a moss pole — its tolerance to partial shade makes it one of the few plants to quickly cover a wall or shelf in less sunny spaces.
  • For a contrast foliage pairing, place it alongside a Calathea Lancifolia — the smooth, shiny cordate leaves of Philodendron contrast with the elongated, spotted leaves of Calathea for a very dynamic tropical composition.
  • In a macramé or natural fiber decorative pot, the trailing stems of Philodendron scandens create a natural cascading effect that is very elegant — choose a hanging decorative pot in white ceramic or terracotta to highlight the softness of the tender green foliage.

Verdeia Tips

  • Pinch stems regularly for a bushier habit: left unpruned, Philodendron scandens produces long, sparsely branched stems — pinching the tips encourages new lateral shoots and a dense, generous silhouette that is much more decorative.
  • Choose your growing style from the start: trailing in a hanging planter for an elegant cascading effect, or climbing on a moss pole for larger leaves and more pronounced fenestrations — both styles give very different results and the decision is made from the beginning.
  • Propagate regularly to thicken the plant: cut the longest stems, replant them directly in the mother plant’s pot — within a few weeks, new shoots emerge and the plant becomes much fuller and more voluminous.

Not a bad start
Format: Kindle
3 stars Thank you Netgalley and Briar Boleyn for the ARC! A camelot/king Arthur retelling with fae. I was hooked by the idea of this book immediately and was eager to jump into this world. • slow burn • enemies to lovers • who did this to you Morgan Pendragon watched her mother die by her father's hand when she was just eight years old, hiding under the bed. Morgan is believed to have the tainted blood of the fae in her veins and is cast aside so that her fathers illegitimate son, Arthur, can become the king. She's seen his cruel treatment of the fae firsthand, so when he sends her on a journey to find a fae weapon she seizes the opportunity to do more with her life. Along the way, she finds more than she could have imagined. I don't know a whole lot about King Arthur and Camelot but I had a lot of fun with this story! The plot has some similar tropes to popular romantasy books (From blood and ash) but there's enough originality here that it doesn't feel like I'm reading a copy. I liked how the fae were different in appearance than what is typical in most fantasy books I've read. In this book they have blue hair, violet skin and a wide range of other characteristics. I thought that the world building was easy to follow and I could easily immerse myself into this world. After reading the blurb I kept wondering when she was going to go on the journey to find Excalibur and it doesn't happen until around the 45% mark. The story is a bit slow at times but starts to pick up once they begin their journey to find Excalibur. The John Wick style Inn was a fun concept that I enjoyed reading about. There are a lot of similarities to this and FBAA and I would have liked to have it be a little more different, but I'm hoping book two will have the story turn into something of its own. Overall I enjoyed reading this story and I'm looking forward to reading book two especially after that ending.

Right from the start, I was drawn in by the prologue!!!
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
Queen of Roses (Blood of a Fae #1) by Briar Boleyn Genre General Fiction ( Adult), Romance, Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Dark Romance “More primordial than the stars. My name was on his lips as he promised unspeakable darkness to any who came between us.” Right from the start, I was drawn in by the prologue!!! I’m a big fan of “touch her, and you die” vibes, but I mean, what’s also not to love about a unique Arthurian retelling with gender twists, a treacherous royal court, a dangerous quest, magical Fae & mystical monsters, entwined with a bit of spice! Morgan, Princess of Pendrath and true heir to the throne has spent most of her life dimming her light to feel safe and to make others comfortable. She is treated as an outcast in the court and repressed by her family due to the blood of the Fae within her and forced to join the Temple of the Three as a priestess in training to one day replace Merlin. Her brother, King Arthur, who reminds me of Joffrey from Game of Thrones, later tells her that he has other plans and offers her a choice of the Temple or to marry her off for political gain, unless… that is, she can journey through the great unknown and return with a long-lost fae weapon with enchanted powers known as Excalibur. Her quest begins with a roguish crew that includes the mysterious, arrogant, and heart-tuggingly handsome Captain of the Royal Guard, Kairos Draven, whom she can’t decide if she wants to stab or indulge in pleasure with. Along the way are plenty of surprises, mystical creatures, and betrayal, all while Morgan uncovers more of the truth about herself and who she can trust. This book had intriguing storylines and lovable characters that kept me turning pages and wanting more. I can’t wait to see how it all unfolds and comes together in book 2, Court of Claws, which I just started reading!! Read if you’re into- Dark Fantasy/Romance Slow–Burn Question Everything Magic and Action Fae Arthurian Legend Stabby/Broken FFC Morally Gray MMC Forced Proximity Queen of Roses is perfect for Holly Black, Jennifer L. Armentrout, and Sarah J. Maas fans. Please check the trigger warnings page in the table of contents before reading this book.

3.5 stars, A little boring to say the least.
Format: Kindle
Wow so I'm not sure where to begin on this one. This was a very different take on the legend of Arthur and Excalibur. This is told from the point of view of Morgan the sister of Arthur. Honestly the first 50% of this book is world building and character building which unfortunately was super boring for me. Morgan to me was a female MC that had a hard time in believing in herself. Sometimes taking too long to understand exactly what was going on around her. Draven was also a different male MC, like I couldn't put my finger on him and what he was all about. It was not until the last 10% of the book did we get some answers on the mystery that is Draven. The other 50% of the book centered around this big journey with everyone having a different motive. We see a spark of magic around this time that had me excited but then we never expanded upon that and what it could mean for the female MC. I feel like I want to read the second book just to see where this goes, but the spice was probably a 2 out of 5. Side characters are ok, Lancelet was fun but I almost felt like I wanted more.

A bewitching retelling of Arthurian legend!
Format: Kindle
In a land where the Fae have nearly become only a legend and those who still posses even a morsel of the blood are few and far between, Morgan finds herself cast aside by most of society due to her rumored half-Fae lineage, including her brother, King Arthur. With the kingdom at the brink of war, Arthur entrusts her with a quest to retrieve a Fae weapon of legendary power: the sword of Perun, Excalibur. Accompanied by men she loathes, Captain Kairos Draven and Ragnar Whitehorn, she embarks on her long and unbeknownst perilous journey, only to find that things she once believed to be myth are in fact very real. With devastating twists, omitted truths, witty banter and fierce action, Queen of Roses leaves you begging to know more about the secrets of Aercanum! Wow, wow, wow! Going into this story, I did not realize that it was going to be a retelling of Arthurian legend, especially not one with a fantastical twist! The unique spin almost gave me The Witcher vibes and I think adding Fae into the mix was quite interesting. I knew the basics of the legend but after reading this book, it has piqued my interest and makes me want to learn more about it. My attention was snatched as soon as I finished the prologue and I knew that I was going to devour this story. I truly enjoyed the gender swaps and even how Arthur was portrayed as villainous. Morgan’s past and even her parts of her present is absolutely heartbreaking, and I felt for her at times. I can only recall one other book that made me hate characters the way I despised Florian and Arthur, leaving me with my blood boiling and feeling disgusted. Even after finishing the book, Draven is still a mystery to me and I cannot figure out how to feel about him. I guess they just means that the author did an excellent job at conveying each character’s persona! The rich world building and imagery made it easy for me to visualize the places that the group visited along their journey. I am truly engulfed in this story and I cannot wait to see wait fate awaits Morgan and how the Fae will be even more incorporated in the next book!. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
