  •   Philodendron 'Brandi' (Philodendron brandtianum) is a vining tropical houseplant from the Araceae family, native to the rainforests of South America, particularly Bolivia and Brazil. In its natural habitat it climbs and trails through humid forest understories.

      Heart-shaped leaves with silvery-grey variegation splash across a deep olive-green base, giving each leaf a brushed metallic appearance. The leaves are medium-sized and slightly leathery, carried on slender trailing stems that cascade from a hanging basket or down a high shelf. It is sought-after among collectors for its variegated foliage.

      It is grown primarily for its foliage rather than its blooms, and indoor specimens rarely flower. It actively filters formaldehyde and other indoor toxins from the air, functioning as both a clean air plant and decorative addition to your space.

      Position it in a kitchen or bathroom where ambient moisture supports its love of high humidity, or move it outside in summer to a sheltered, shaded spot for a growth boost. It needs a hanging hook or elevated surface to trail from, and rotating the pot every few weeks ensures even, symmetrical growth. Keep it on a high shelf or out of reach, as cats and dogs shouldn't nibble the plant, and the sap can cause skin or paw irritation on contact. Small children should also be kept away from it for the same reason.

  •   Philodendron 'Brandi' grows well in bright indirect light and will scorch in a south-facing window with direct afternoon sun.

      Water it thoroughly every 7-10 days in summer, allowing the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings, and reduce to every 14 days in winter.

      Philodendron Brandi does best in a chunky, well-draining mix of peat or coco coir, perlite, and orchid bark to prevent waterlogged roots.

      It prefers temperatures between 65-85°F and should never be exposed to frost or drops below 50°F.

      Philodendron Brandi is a moderate to fast grower during spring and summer; feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer monthly during the growing season.

      It is hardy in USDA zones 9-11, where winter temperatures stay above 25°F, though it performs best where hard frost never occurs. It grows outdoors year-round in Florida, Hawaii, coastal and southern California, southern Texas, Arizona, Louisiana, southern Georgia, coastal South Carolina, Mississippi, Alabama, and coastal Oregon and Washington. It can also thrive in Nevada's warmer southern valleys, parts of New Mexico, and select microclimates in coastal North Carolina and Virginia with minimal winter protection.
  • Q: How often should I water Philodendron 'Brandi'?
    A: Every 7-10 days during the growing season, letting the top inch of soil dry between waterings. Slight leaf wilting indicates thirst.

    Q: Does Philodendron 'Brandi' cause yellowing leaves, and if so, why?
    A: Yellow leaves most often result from overwatering, low humidity, or exposure to cold drafts from air conditioning or heating vents. Move it away from direct airflow and adjust your watering frequency.

    Q: Can Philodendron Brandi grow under office LED lights?
    A: Yes, it adapts to bright office LED grow lighting and works well on a well-lit desk or shelf. Keep it away from cold air conditioning vents for best results.

    Q: Is this plant safe for cats and dogs?
    A: No. Philodendron Brandi should be kept well out of reach of pets and small children, as the plant and its sap can cause irritation if chewed, touched, or ingested.

    Q: How do I propagate Philodendron Brandi?
    A: Take a stem cutting with at least one node and one leaf, then root it in water or moist perlite in a warm, bright spot. Roots typically appear within 2-4 weeks.

    Q: How do I keep growth even?
    A: Rotate Philodendron Brandi a quarter turn every 2-3 weeks so all sides receive equal light and the trailing stems develop symmetrically. Consistent humidity and warmth support even growth.

    🌿 For Houseplants
    When your package arrives, you may notice a bit of loose soil in the box. This is completely normal during shipping.
    Please remove your plants from their packaging as soon as possible and review the care instructions included with your order. Water based on your plant’s needs, making sure not to overwater.
    Houseplants may need a short adjustment period after arrival. Give your plant time to acclimate to its new space before placing it with other plants. You can gently clean the leaves if needed, and wait to fertilize until it has settled in. Always check soil moisture instead of watering on a fixed schedule.
    *** We pack carefully to protect each plant during transit, so larger orders may arrive in multiple packages.
