Description
The Flowerwood Split Leaf Philodendron is composed of large glossy green foliage at the ends of long, thick stems. A tropical plant in nature, this evergreen is adored by both landscape and houseplant gardeners alike. Considered easy to maintain these well branched species only require pruning when brown/yellowing has began to form. Flowerwood Philodendrons are air purifying, so they help remove harmful toxins from the air. Make sure to mist routinely and wipe down the leaves so remove any dust which may hinder the process of photosynthesis. Philodendrons can be slow growing plants and may take up to 15 years to fully mature when planted indoors.
