Philodendron joepii was discovered in 1991 on the Mataroni River in French Guiana by Joep Moonen, who first thought the leaves had been eaten by insects. Highly sought after due to its very odd foliage, its wide lower lobes taper upwards into a narrow upper body, topped by a pair of upwards and outwards pointing lobes.

One of the most variable genera of houseplants on the market, Philodendrons can come in many shapes, sizes, forms & colors! Most Philodendrons are either vining or mounding types, & many Philodendrons will change their leaf shape as they mature!

~Do Not place in full sun. Though many Philodendron can be acclimated to full sun, our Philodendron have been grown under shaded, greenhouse conditions.

~Philodendron are considerably hardy & tolerant of a wide range of growing conditions, but for the best growth it is recommended to provide higher levels of humidity.

~If trying to get Philodendron to mature, give them a moss pole or wood board to climb! Make sure to keep the pole or board saturated though so aerial roots can attach & actually climb!
