Philodendron is the largest genus we track, spanning everything from beginner-friendly climbers to five-figure grails. The species and cultivars at the top of this list are slow and difficult to propagate, so cultivated stock stays short of demand.

We ranked every Philodendron in our database by Verified typical UK price, from UK eBay sales. Each entry links to a full profile with care notes and price history.
