Philodendron squamiferum | Hairy Philodendron
Product Description
Philodendron squamiferum, also known as the Hairy Philodendron, is a unique climbing aroid loved for its fuzzy reddish petioles and bold green foliage. As it matures, the leaves can develop a more lobed, dramatic shape, making this a fun plant to grow out over time.
This plant is a great choice for collectors who enjoy unusual texture and easygoing tropical houseplants. Give it a moss pole or support and it will reward you with larger, more mature foliage.
