The plant is compact, small (30-50 cm), but there can be mutations that appear spontaneously, such as: variegated leaves, very long leaves, larger growths than usual for this variety.
The leaves are short and sharp, and on the lower side they show reddish colors.
Philodendron 'Little Phil' stands out for its very large basal branching, being a plant with good stability (it does not need support) and a very strong root system.
Philodendron 'Little Phil' care instructions:
Location: Philodendron 'Little Phil' prefers a bright or partially sunny area - experiments in Australia show that the plant can be grown successfully in direct sun, but not enough data is provided. However, it will also tolerate a darker area. The foliage will become greener if it is placed in a shadier area.
Watering: The soil must be neither too wet nor too dry. Water regularly, allowing the soil to partially dry between waterings. Make sure the culture system provides good drainage.
Soil: Philodendron prefers a nutrient-rich soil that retains moisture well.
Note: Some specimens may have mechanical defects/scars and/or discoloration on the leaves.
Height with pots approx. 15 cm
