Philodendron Birkin

Philodendron Birkin’s beautiful striped leaves do not exist in the wild; this beautiful plant came to be as a result of a mutation in the Philodendron Rojo Congo. The mutation proved to be stable, meaning that this random mutation could be propagated to the beautiful collector plant we all love!

Caring for Philodendron

 Light Needs

•          Indoors, Philodendron like bright, indirect light.

  Watering

• Philodendron do not like to be overwatered (this can lead to root rot). However, they also would prefer to not dry out altogether. For best results, water when the top half of the soil is dry. A moisture meter is a helpful tool to see when your plant needs water.

 Feeding

• Fertilize regularly during the spring and summer once or twice a month with an all purpose fertilizer.
