Care Guide & Presentation
Philodendron Micans (Rooted Starter Plant): Overview
The Philodendron Micans (Philodendron hederaceum var. hederaceum) is a tropical vining plant from the Araceae family, native to Central and South America. Admired for its soft, heart-shaped leaves with velvety shades of deep green, bronze, and purple, this plant brings a touch of luxury to any space. Known as a natural climber and trailer, the Micans adapts beautifully indoors, whether cascading from a shelf, hanging basket, or climbing up a moss pole. With this rooted starter plant, you'll receive young, healthy Philodendron Micans already established with roots and ready to grow. It's the perfect choice for plant lovers who enjoy nurturing a plant from its early stages into a lush, full specimen. Like other philodendrons, the Micans is toxic if ingested, so it should be kept out of reach of pets and children.
