Philodendron goeldii - Live Plant

The best thing about this plant is... as the leaves mature they become cork-screwed, growing in a round pattern!  

Details: Also called Thaumatophyllum spruceanum. As this beauty matures the leaves start to grow in a unique circular pattern creating a completely unique visual texture in your houseplant collection. Ultimately this plant is a climber so plan for a totem or similar support. 

Philodendron goeldii prefers a location away from excessive direct sunlight, although it does require a bright diffused-light location to be at its best. As with all potted plants, we strongly recommend growing in containers with excellent drainage, a free-draining, chunky mix and fertilizing several times per year with all-purpose organic plant food. 

Shipping?

Sage Garden grows many unique varieties... so live plant shipping within Canada is available for select varieties mid-June through mid-October. We do not ship plants during freezing weather or during particularly hot weather - both of these situations are very hard on plants in transit. 

 

Please note: customers are responsible for the full actual shipping charges (Canada Post or UPS) and understand that Sage Garden cannot take responsibility for damages that occur in shipping. 

Plant size and condition

The plants photographed for web listings are representative but it is important to note that each plant is different, and maturity and fullness change with the seasons. Some plants go semi-dormant in winter, and transitional leaf drop is common for some plants when settling into a new home... this is considered normal. Decor pots featured in photos are available separately and are not included unless specifically noted in the description.

Care Tip #1

There is a lot less light indoors, especially as you move away from windows. Start by placing all indoor plants in the brightest location available and tune things from there.

Care Tip #2

Indoor plants benefit from regular showering! This keeps leaves dust-free so they can photosynthesize to their full potential, and also reduces the chances of pests occurring on houseplants.
