Introducing Philodendron grazieiae, a stunning climbing species native to areas of Peru and Brazil. This beauty got their name from the Brazilian botanist Graciela Barroso, who collected the original specimen that was the cultivated in the Rio de Janeiro Botanical Garden in the 1960s.

☀️This Philo requires bright indirect light, avoid any harsh light or positioning this plant too close to a window as scorching or leaf burn can occur.

💧Philodendron grazieiae like their soil to be kept evenly moist and it’s best not to let them completely dry out in between waterings as the leaves can start to droop. 

〰️These plants don’t require higher levels of humidity, however if you see the leaf edges begin to dry and brown it can be that the ambient humidity is too low. You will generally start to see signs of this at the tips of the leaves. This isn't detrimental to the plant's health, but can look unsightly. You can increase humidity in your home by misting, grouping plants close together or sitting pot plants on a saucer filled with pebbles and water.

🌡️Like most popular houseplants, philodendrons prefer temperatures in the 18°C-30°C which is similar to their tropical native habitat.

🪜Philodendron grazieiae naturally wants to climb so giving this plant some sort of climbing support will ensure it grows exceptionally well. A moss pole or simple stake will work a treat. Some people do prefer to grow these plant in a hanging basket and let the stems hang down. This is also a stunning option but you wont get mature growth growing this way.

🍴It’s best to feed regularly during the warmer months and reduce frequency in winter. Alternatively, use a controlled release fertiliser at the beginning of spring and autumn.

✂️Remove dying or browning leaves and stems as required. Otherwise, there is no need to prune. 

🪴Philodendron grazieiae prefers a well-draining potting mix. Using a mix of orchid bark, sphagnum moss, and perlite works well. 

(You will receive a bare rooted plant, similar to the ones seen in the images. Each living plant is unique and may vary slightly in size, colour or shape.)
