Description

Introducing the Philodendron Squamiferum – an exotic and one-of-a-kind addition to any plant collection.

The name 'Squamiferum' comes from the Latin words 'Squama,' meaning 'scale,' and 'Ferum,' this can be interpreted as 'bearing'. In the case of Philodendron Squamiferum, scale-bearing probably refers to the distinctive red hairs on the stems of the plant, which resemble tiny scales.

Origin

Let's take you on a journey to the lush rainforests of Central and South America, places like French Guiana, Suriname, and northern Brazil. This is where the Philodendron Squamiferum thrives, making its home in tropical forests and climbing trees with its aerial roots.

Care

Place your Philodendron Squamiferum in a spot with indirect to partial sunlight. Keep the soil consistently moist, allowing the top layer to dry out between watering sessions. Don't forget to give it a little spritz during winter to boost humidity.

With its exotic appeal and unique features, the Philodendron Squamiferum will be a splendid addition to any interior. Order your very own Philodendron Squamiferum today and enjoy the charm of this exceptional plant!
