A tropical hybrid between Philodendron asplundii and Philo. genevieveanum, this cross adds a graceful, understated presence to an aroid collection. Give it room to develop as a distinctive specimen in a bright, humid growing space.
-
Light: Bright, indirect light near an east-facing window or behind a sheer curtain. Protect from harsh direct sunlight.
-
Temperature: Intermediate to warm-growing; 65–82°F (18–28°C). Avoid cold drafts and abrupt temperature changes.
-
Humidity: Aim for 60–80% with gentle air circulation.
-
Watering: Water thoroughly when the upper layer of the substrate begins to dry. Use a loose, well-draining aroid mix, and never leave the pot standing in water.
-
Growth Habit: Climbing growth; provide a moss pole or similar support for the stem and aerial roots as the plant develops.
Additional Notes:
Elongated green leaves have smooth margins, tapered tips, and a distinct central midrib. Their gently arching presentation benefits from enough space between neighboring plants to keep developing foliage unobstructed.
