Information on plant sizes
All plants are measured from the bottom of the nursery pot to the tip of the plant and if a height is specified, this is an approximate height, not set in stone. As all plants are living things, they will vary in size throughout the year, and we do our best to give a guide as to the size you can expect. If in doubt drop us an email hello@leafculture.co.uk.
If you're after a houseplant that is a bit more exotic, then you might just like Philodendron Gigas. With its silky looking velvet like leaves, there's a lot to like about this plant. It's been growing up a small wooden pole and the leaves are elongated with lighter coloured veins running down the leaves. Depicting the leaf colour is hard - hues of coppery green are most common but possibly hints of purple too.
Philodendron Gigas which originates from the forests of Panama, and Philodendron Gigas is found with leaves over 1m in length. The leaves themselves sit very flat to the pole allowing them to absorb as much light as physically possible. At the time of writing, leaves are about 10cm in length but most are smaller.
Like most Philodendrons, they're easy to grow and provide little demand on the plant parent. Move them as close to the window as possible without giving them direct sunlight which will scorch the leaves. Well-drained soil is important and we recommend Soil Ninja Monstera & Philodendron Soil Mix. Only water when they need it and again, a tool which is really useful is our Leaf Culture Moisture Meter - a must for any plant parent. Try and keep the himidty level up around Philodendron Gigas - bearing in mind they originate from the tropics where moisture levels are high (60-70%).
So if you're looking to add a bit more exoticness to your plant collection with a houseplant that has HUGE potential, consider the Philodendron Gigas.
Note, that the leaves on this plant are not always perfect - some have minor blemishes. It's not an issue, but just adds to their character.
