Fuzzy Petiole Philodendron (Philodendron nangaritense 'Fuzzy Petiole')
Fuzzy Petiole Philodendron is a collector-style philodendron that combines a bold tropical look with a soft, touchable detail that makes it feel truly unique. Its lush, heart-shaped leaves bring instant greenery to indoor spaces, while the fuzzy leaf stems add extra character up close. With bright, indirect light and a simple watering routine, it grows steadily and stays full without being overly demanding. If you want a standout philodendron that feels both dramatic and personable, this one delivers.
Distinctive Features
This philodendron is prized for its velvety to softly textured petioles that give the plant its fuzzy nickname, paired with broad, rich green leaves that create a full tropical presence. The foliage is typically heart-shaped with a slightly thick feel, and new growth can look especially fresh and vibrant. It is generally a climbing to scrambling aroid, so providing a support can help it develop a more upright, showcased form as it matures. The combination of bold leaf shape and fuzzy stems makes it a conversation piece in any indoor plant collection.
Growing Conditions
- Sun: Bright, indirect light is ideal, and it tolerates medium light with slower growth.
- Soil: Airy, well-drained aroid mix that holds some moisture but never stays soggy.
- Water: Water when the top 1 to 2 inches of soil dry, and do not let the pot sit in water.
- Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity supports best growth and leaf condition, with average home humidity acceptable.
- Growth Habit: Climbing to scrambling growth that benefits from a moss pole or stake for a fuller display.
Ideal Uses
- Focal Point: Train on a moss pole so the bold leaves and fuzzy stems can be showcased as a statement plant.
- Plant Stands: Place on a stand where the fuzzy petioles can be appreciated up close.
- Bright Room Corner: Add to a bright corner to bring a lush tropical feel with a unique twist.
- Collector Displays: Pair with other aroids to build a curated indoor collection with varied textures.
Low Maintenance Care
- Watering: Keep evenly moist but not wet, allowing a partial dry-down between waterings.
- Support: Provide a moss pole or stake and secure stems to guide growth upward and keep the plant tidy.
- Feeding: Feed monthly in spring and summer with a balanced houseplant fertilizer at a moderate strength.
- Leaf Care: Dust gently and avoid harsh wiping that can damage delicate textures on stems and leaves.
Why Choose Fuzzy Petiole Philodendron?
- Unique Fuzzy Stems: Soft petioles add rare texture and a collectible detail.
- Bold Tropical Leaves: Broad foliage creates a lush, full look indoors.
- Great on a Pole: Support training helps it look more upright and showcased as it matures.
- Approachable Care: Thrives with bright, indirect light and a steady watering routine.
Fuzzy Petiole Philodendron is a great choice when you want a plant that feels special every time you look at it up close. Give it bright, indirect light, an airy mix, and consistent watering after partial dry-down, and it will grow steadily and stay attractive. With a support to climb and a little extra humidity, it can become a lasting focal plant with a truly memorable texture.

She starts the book off fairly amusing and relateable with an excellent depiction of anxiety and paranoia
Format: Paperback
This was actually a 3.5 star read for me, but the more I pondered it over the two-day span between finishing it and reviewing it, I realized it wasn't quite remarkable enough for me to round up.
Here We Are Now tells the story of Taliah, a biracial white/Arabic teen who's never met her father. She's only working on an educated guess that he might be Julian Oliver, rockstar sensationalist, when the man shows up at her door one day to tell her that her assumptions were correct - and he wants to take her to meet his family, including his dying father.
Tal isn't the most enjoyable narrator in the beginning of the story. She starts the book off fairly amusing and relateable with an excellent depiction of anxiety and paranoia, but those feelings quickly morph into a level of snark and distrust that's not pleasant to read through. Despite the fact that Julian's entire existence points blatantly to a million lies Tal's mother has fed her throughout her life, Tal refuses to place any blame on her mother.
The nice thing about Taliah, however, is how much she grows; throughout the story, through a handful of "tough love" scenarios from multiple friends and family members, she learns that life isn't as black and white as she thinks it is. She grows to slowly trust people and open up, and is forced to come to terms with her unhealthy level of possessiveness over her best friend, Harlow.
The most unexpected thing about Here We Are Now was how quickly and how much I fell in love with Tal's father, Julian. From the opening of the story, I honestly expected him to be this flighty, dirtbag sort of stereotypical rockstar who would show up, get her hopes up, and then shatter her dreams a few times before disappearing again at the end of the book. That is totally not Julian at all, though.
From the beginning, he's awkward, uncertain, and a little bit shy about learning he's Taliah's father. I won't spoil the fine details for you, but we learn that Julian hasn't been half bad enough to deserve some of the events of the past, and he's actually a pretty well-meaning guy. His banter with Tal is so enjoyable, and I loved the way the we got to see the past through his memories, but they were written in Lena's (Tal's mother) perspectives.
Harlow is Tal's childhood best friend, who happens to be a lesbian. I loved the idea of Harlow to bits: she's obsessed with baking, she's sassy, she's proud of her sexuality, and she's got a good head on her shoulders. Unfortunately, her actual interactions with Tal and the other characters in the story are cringe-y most of the time, and her "tough love" spiel about not relying on only one person would have been a lot better if it hadn't been laced with her breaking a promise to Tal so she could hang out with her girlfriend.
The romance in this book was one hundred percent the biggest disappointment in the entire story. It felt so incredibly lackluster and out of place that I probably would have rounded up to 4 stars if I could have somehow gone through and edited out the entire existence of this friend-of-the-family character. He's not a bad kid, but it would be so nice to see a YA contemporary every now and then that doesn't end in a couple forming, and this book would have been perfect for that! Totally a missed opportunity.
First of all, I am not Muslim - or religious at all - and I cannot speak for how good this rep was. I do know, however, that Jasmine Warga identifies as a Middle Eastern/American woman, so the POC rep is own-voice and was so enjoyable to read. Tal's mother's perspectives frequently reflect on her Muslim beliefs and family, as well as how incredibly homesick she is for Jordan. She frets constantly that she is letting her parents down if she doesn't make a name for herself in the States, and there is even a solid bit of conversation about hijab-wearing and eating habits!
Of course, there is also the lesbian rep that I mentioned in Harlow's case, which I found really enjoyable. Harlow is out and proud and has no questions about her sexuality. There are no tropes, or painful moments we commonly see through queer characters in YA contemporary titles.
All in all, Here We Are Now was a fun read, but nothing spectacular. Had it not been for the romantic aspect, I would have given this 4 stars, but it was such a downer that I couldn't justify rounding up the rating. If you're looking for a fun YA contemporary story about family, with some nice diverse representation thrown in, or if you're already a Jasmine Warga fan, I'd recommend picking it up.

A very witty and heartwarming story for everyone...
Format: Hardcover
Wow, Pamplemousse! I think this book found me at the right time in my life. Here We Are Now is short and expands over a few days, but I also enjoyed that flashbacks of the main character’s parents falling in and out love is littered throughout the pages. I really connected with the main character Taliah, who is definitely a hard shell to crack. But I loved that although she is sarcastic, smart, and funny, she also holds a tight rope around her emotions. She is cautious with letting people in, but I liked that her journey to meet her father and his family for the very first time, opens up her world to new challenges and emotional breakthroughs.
I don’t want to give too much away in regards to the plot, because it is very straight forward and well-focused on Taliah, a teenager, meeting her father, a well-known rock star, for the very first time. And throughout the pages, Taliah pushes herself to open up to her dad, discover unknown information about her mom, and meet her long lost family. And importantly she matures and discovers things about herself.
Here We Are Now is very straight-forward and focuses a lot on modern day scenarios, such as familial conflicts, diversity, biracial relationships, and tough love. I found myself laughing a lot during this book, because these characters are so witty and heartwarming. But there are also some parts that are heartbreaking, and these moments are so raw and gritty and realistic. In the end, I liked that the conclusion of this book leaves the characters wide open for new possibilities and room to grow, instead of a simple “happily ever after” ending.

Nostalgic and Authentic
Format: Hardcover
As an adult reader, I don't read a ton of YA these days, but I love picking up one now and then that speaks to me the way so many of my favorite books did when I was of a certain wide-eyed age. This one rang true -- in the character searching for who she really is as she comes into her own, overcoming relatable anxieties and changing for the better along the way. Would gladly gift a copy to the young readers in my life -- particularly those who love music.

Nice fun read
Format: Hardcover
I feel like this is a good book to read in-between reading deeper, more thoughtful books. I enjoyed it but it could have been better if the author left out a couple of characters and added more depth to others.
