Silver Philodendron
Approx $43.45 USD
The Silver Philodendron, specifically the Silver Sword variety, is an excellent choice for indoor gardening enthusiasts looking for unique
foliage with a striking appearance. It's notable for its silvery-blue, glossy, sword-shaped leaves, making it a sought-after decorative
houseplant.
Care Tips:
- Lighting: These plants thrive in bright, indirect light, which promotes more intense silvery variegation on the leaves. They can also grow under artificial grow lights​​.
- Watering: Water the plant when the top 2 inches of soil feel dry. Be cautious of overwatering, as Silver Philodendrons are prone to root rot. It's better to underwater than overwater​​.
- Soil: Use an airy, well-draining mix, incorporating high-quality indoor potting mix and perlite. This combination helps avoid overwatering issues, which are common with this plant​​.
- Humidity and Temperature: They prefer humidity levels above 50% and temperatures between 65-75 degrees Fahrenheit (18-24 degrees C). Average room humidity is generally sufficient, but higher humidity can promote faster growth and lusher leaves​​.
- Propagation: The Silver Sword Philodendron can be propagated using stem cuttings, ideally in spring. Select a healthy stem, cut it below a node, and either plant it directly into soil or start it in water​​.
- General Maintenance: Remember to periodically clean the leaves to prevent dust accumulation and encourage better growth. Also, they are climbers, so providing a moss pole or trellis can encourage natural growth habits and larger leaf development​​​​.
It's important to note that the Silver Sword Philodendron is toxic to both pets and humans, so it should be placed out of reach of children
and animals​​​​.
Despite these care requirements, the Silver Philodendron is relatively easy to maintain and can add a stunning element of tropical flair to
your indoor space.
