In our nursery we have various forms of one plant. Plants are living beings and so they are sometimes different. Variations in color and size are therefore possible.

The pictures shown with our products are sample pictures. These photos give a true picture of what the plant may look like when properly cared for. The specifications are leading for the plant received. Please read the characteristics carefully before ordering.

What are sample images?

We have an extremely large, extensive assortment with thousands of plants. In addition, because specific plants change in shape, color and size on a weekly basis, it is impossible for our small team to capture all specific plants. Each plant grows in a unique way, so it is perfectly normal that there may be differences in color, shape and size.

But because we do want to communicate clearly to you what to expect with a product, we have specifications for each plant that will give you a clear picture of what to expect.

It is therefore rare that you will receive the exact plant shown in the picture. If this is the case, it will be explicitly mentioned in the product description. Our goal is to ensure that you have a pleasant, green shopping experience and that you can shop with us worry-free.

For people who like to browse among the plants, we have a physical store. Check the contact page for opening hours and more info.

Description

The name Philodendron is derived from the Greek words "philo" (love) and "dendron" (tree). This classic plant is one of the most popular houseplants. In addition to being easy to care for, the Philodendron is an air-purifying plant.

Origin

The Philodendron Mamei is native to Ecuador. This Philodendron gets large green leaves, accented by a silver pattern. The deep veins give an extra beautiful effect. The petioles have a graceful wavy edge and are reddish with green in color with very subtle white streaks. This distinct decoration is an absolute feast for the eyes!

Growing Style

This is a creeping Philodendron, not a climber. Philodendron Mamei's growth rate and leaf color can vary greatly depending on substrate, sunlight, temperature and other factors.

Origin Philodendron

There are about 400 species of Philodendrons, a member of the arum family (Araceae). First described in 1644, the plant did not receive an official name until 1829. The Philodendron family is a large one, with plants of various shapes, sizes and colors. Philodendrons can be divided into two basic categories: climbing and non-climbing plants. The non-climbing plants are also sometimes found high up in trees in nature. When a seed germinates in the hollow of a tall branch, the plant manages to provide itself with sufficient nutrients and water with its roots.

Air purification

The Philodendron is particularly effective at helping purify the air we breathe. To take advantage of its air-purifying properties, place at least one Philodendron on every 10 m² and let it do what it does naturally.

Substrate

Like other Araceae, this Philodendron can be kept as a houseplant. This plant prefers a water-permeable soil that should be kept evenly moist but never wet.

Light and location

The Philodendron mamei grows best when provided with bright filtered sunlight. It can incidentally handle a lot of shade better than other houseplants. However, you will notice that they are slower grow.

Temperature

Philodendron plants can be kept in an ambient temperature of 15°C - 25°C. Ensure that cold temperatures are avoided.

Repot

Philodendrons grow very well in a pot. When doing so, do leave plenty of room for growth. Remember the looser the roots, the larger and healthier your plant will be. When the plant becomes root bound, its growth will slow down. At that point, it is time for a larger pot. You can occasionally give the plant diluted fertilizer as nutrition. This will stimulate the growth of the plant.
