Philodendron sp. Colombia
A terrestrial creeper from the Colombian rainforest circulating in the collector trade under its geographic provisional name, also known as Philodendron sp. 'Silver' for the metallic sheen its large, broadly heart-shaped leaves develop in good indirect light. It grows via horizontal rhizome rather than climbing, producing progressively larger leaves with deeply impressed primary venation and a rich deep green surface.
-
Light: Bright indirect light supports the best leaf size, deepest vein definition, and most vivid silvery sheen. Tolerates moderate light but produces smaller leaves in dimmer conditions.
-
Soil: Chunky, well-draining aroid mix rich in organic matter — orchid bark, coco coir, and perlite; as a terrestrial, slightly more moisture-retentive than strictly epiphytic species.
-
Temperature/Humidity: Warm temperatures between 65-80°F; humidity of 60-80% supports the best leaf quality. Avoid cold drafts and temperatures below 60°F.
-
Watering: Allow the medium to approach dryness between waterings but do not allow to dry out completely. Water thoroughly and drain fully; never waterlog.
-
Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4 weeks during active growth; supplement with calcium and magnesium for the best leaf quality and vein definition. Reduce in winter.

Great condition, well wrapped and no damage.
Packaged well and received quickly! Much bigger than I thought it would be! It’s already working on a new leaf.
I’m in love I can’t wait for this baby to put out more leaves

Beautiful plant that was wrapped very securely! Arrived quickly as well.
Another beautiful plant. Exactly as pictured. Thank you
One of my favorite plants shipped SO well! No cosmetic damage!
Beautiful plant! It did really well in shipping and is adjusting well to my environment!!
I received this yesterday and opened the box with trepidation as the USPS took 10 days to send the plant from Florida to Maryland -- even though it was sent Priority Mail. Happy to say it looked fine after its long hot journey. I think part of the reason is because it was packed so well. The plant is beautiful.
I’m obsessed with this plant! Highly recommend!
The plant was packaged well and looks exactly like the photo. Some travel sadness, which is to be expected. So beautiful!
Communication was very transparent with seller very happy with vthe material

Beautiful, healthy, pest free! I am very happy with my purchase! Buy with confidence!
Plants arrived beat up from carrier…box was crushed…but plant is healthy
My last experience was not the best. This go around was much better. That plant is healthy and looks even better than the picture.
It took a long time to ship and be delivered, and when it got here it had root rot and needed some attention, so fingers crossed it's okay. But the plant was a good size and they worked with me to find the right one.
Big beautiful leaves and plant looks healthy. Looking forward to watching it grow. Thank you!
