Philodendron crassinervium

$46.00
Subscription Save

These super easy to care for plants are a native of southeast Brazil with long lance-shaped leaves that point upwards with a large, very obvious midvein. The midvein is used to store water for periods of drought that occur during the dry season.

Along the midvein there are small red glands that produce a clear sap that results in a freckled-look on both sides of the leaves. This baby has a climbing growth habit and loves to throw out bright red aerial roots.

Watering

Wait until the top 2-3cm centimetres of soil in the pot has dried out before watering heavily. Water less in in the cooler month to replicate the tropical dry season.

Position

Bright indirect light and a humid position is great for these guys. They are pretty tolerant of cooler temperatures (not frost) and even mildly salt tolerant.

Managing growth

Currently about 40cm tall but the leaves themselves can eventually grow to almost a meter long with a width of about 10 cm when mature making them a striking feature in the home.

Greeting your Philodendron crassinervium

These plants are shipped in a 1.5L nursery pot that is wrapped in a calico bag to keep the soil in during transport. They will fit any pot from our Classic Pot Range.

Our special eco packaging

No Plant Stress

Our plant packaging is designed by people know how to keep plants fresh and healthy in transit. Your plants will enjoy a comfortable trip directly from our greenhouse to your door in just a few of days. Your plant will not have to deal with the stress of being bare rooted for transport (how most plants are sent) and you won’t have to deal with the mess and fuss of potting up your new plant when you receive it.

Stability Support

The plastic pot will be wrapped in a calico bag to keep the soil in place, it will then be tied into a specially designed cardboard insert which will keep it stable and upright throughout its journey. The insert will be glued in place on top of your cardboard wrapped ceramic pot to hold it down and your plant up!

No Re-Potting

Your plant will come in its plastic pot which we make sure fits perfectly in whichever ceramic pot you choose. Our packaging has been designed to allow us to send your beautiful ceramic pot along with your plant, fully potted, yep in soil, together in the same box.

Fully Recyclable

The thing that we’re most proud of is that our packaging is fully recyclable and re-useable so you don’t have to feel bad about generating more packaging waste. In fact you should feel awesome because ordering from us, online, will generate way less emissions than if you were to drive to the nursery to buy a plant. The only plastic you get will be the plastic pot that your plant comes in and these can be re-used or recycled.
