Plant Addicts Brandi Philodendron

It is versatile. You can let it trail from a hanging basket for a lush, cascading look, or train it up a moss pole. Climbing usually encourages the leaves to grow larger and more vibrant, but it will thrive either way.

No, the Philodendron brandtianum is toxic to pets if ingested. It is best to keep this plant in a location that is inaccessible to curious animals.

Check the soil moisture by inserting your finger about an inch deep. If the soil feels dry to the touch, it is time to water. Avoid letting the plant sit in standing water, as this can lead to root rot.

While it adapts to lower light conditions, it performs best in bright, indirect light. If your space is quite dark, you may notice slower growth and less pronounced silver variegation on the leaves.

This plant loves humidity. You can group it with other plants, place it on a pebble tray filled with water, or keep it in a naturally humid room like a bathroom with a window. If your home is very dry, a small humidifier nearby will also help.

Yes, the plant ships in a 4-inch plastic nursery pot. We recommend keeping it in this pot until it is acclimated to your home, then repotting it into a decorative container with drainage holes once it outgrows the current size.
