Philodendron domesticum 'Variegated' Morphology
About Philodendron domesticum 'Variegated'
Philodendron domesticum 'Variegated' brings crisp cream and white sectoring to the smooth, elongated spade-shaped leaves that give this species its common name. The glossy blade tapers to a long point, and variegated sections range from clean half-moon splits to fine marbled streaks running along the leaf length. It climbs steadily with support, producing progressively larger leaves as it matures, and the contrast between the glossy deep green and bright white patches makes it a good climbing specimen for a moss pole or trellis.
