Philodendron pitteri 12cm

🌿 Philodendron pitteri

Heavy Texture. Deep Grooves. Obscure Jungle Royalty.

The Philodendron pitteri isn’t your everyday philo. With its thick, deeply quilted leaves and bold vertical presence, it’s giving major prehistoric jungle vibes. It’s the kind of plant that doesn’t shout for attention — but still ends up stealing the whole show.

✨ Why You’ll Love It

• Serious Texture: Bold, rippling leaves with deep ridges and that signature matte finish.

• Upright & Proud: A self-heading growth habit that brings structure to any plant setup.

• Obscure & Elegant: Rarely seen in the wild (or online), but totally worth the search.

🌱 Care Deets

Light:
Bright, indirect light brings out the best growth. Avoid harsh direct sun — it’ll crisp those dramatic leaves.

Water:
Let the top layer of soil dry between waterings. Loves moisture, but not sogginess.

Humidity:
Thrives in higher humidity (60%+), but can adapt to average home levels if it’s not too dry.

Soil:
Well-draining, chunky mix — think aroid blend with bark, perlite, and a touch of coco coir.

Feeding:
Monthly feeding during the growing season keeps things lush and sculptural.
