Philodendron 'Birkin'
Philodendron 'Birkin'
Philodendron Birkin is a stunning newer selection that shows off large, dark green leaves heavily streaked in crisp white. Each leaf is unique, adding beauty and drama to the home or office. It can reach 3 feet tall and does not climb (it is self-supporting). Philodendron is a classic, and practically no-fail houseplant because it's so easy to grow. Grow philodendrons just about anywhere. As houseplants they're that easy to keep!
Lighting: The plants grow best in medium or bright-light spots, but tolerate low light exceedingly well.
Watering: Water philodendrons enough when the soil surface dries. They're tough enough plants they don't mind if you forget to water them now and again. Just take care not to overwater your philodendrons. They will rot if they're kept too wet.
Fertilization: You typically don't need to fertilize philodendrons much, if at all, but they appreciate a feeding once or twice a year in spring and summer.
