Philodendron Birkin Lighting & Position

Philodendrons come from the humid forests of South America, so they thrive in a warm and well lit position with bright indirect light. Keep them away from drafts and heating/cooling units as they wonโ€™t like cold drafts and sudden temperature fluctuations. Brighter light should aid the brightness of the Philodendron Birkins variegation.

 

Philodendron Birkin Watering

Itโ€™s important to keep up a regular watering routine. In summer you want to keep the soil moist but not soggy. To monitor this, you can use your finger to poke into the top 5 cm of potting mix and feel the soil moisture level before watering. If it feels wet, let it dry out for longer. Over watering can lead to fungal issues or root rot. Try watering once a week, using just enough water to start to see some draining from the bottom of the pot. During winter, when the plant isnโ€™t in an active growing phase you should reduce watering frequency.ย 

As with all plants, drainage is essential. Ensure that whatever vessel your plant is in, there are sufficient holes in the bottom to allow excess water to freely drain from the pot and away from the plantโ€™s roots.ย 

 

Philodendron Birkin Humidity

Many Philodendrons arenโ€™t as fussed as some of the other aroids in terms of humidity, but they will appreciate moderate humidity so group them together, pop them on a pebble tray and If you want to go all out, buying a small humidifier online and placing that amongst your humidity loving plants can go a long way in providing the rainforest climate they will thrive in

N.b. misting with a spray bottle will only improve humidity temporarily, and if done excessively can lead to fungal issues. Misting should only be done occasionally and is most effective as part of your leaf cleaning routine (mist and then gently wipe leaves with a cloth to clear away dust from the leaf surface)

 

Philodendron Birkin Fertiliser

Feed with liquid fertiliser fortnightly over the warm, growing period and not at all over the cooler winter months.

We recommend using our Plant Food available here.ย 

 

Philodendron Birkin Extra Tips

Philodendron Birkins are a new Philodendron hybrid created by cross-breeding a Philodendron Congo and Philodendron Imperial Green. This means you won't find them naturally in the wild. It also means that occassionally it can revert, with fully non-variegated leaves shooting through. Some people embrace the combination of leaves which gives the appearance of being two unique plants but the non-variegated leaves can easily become larger and dominant. So if your plant does shoot a reverted leaf and you're a puritan like me, cut off the new leaf to try and encourage new growth to come from the variegated sections of the plant. Placing the plant in brighter light is also believed to encourage better variegation.

Once a month you can wipe down the plants leaves using a damp cloth to clean away any dust that has collected and may be preventing the leaves from breathing. You can also prune off any damaged or dying leaves using a sharp pair of scissors or secateurs.ย 

 

Philodendron Birkin Toxicity

N.b. this plant is toxic if ingested for both humans and animals so keep it away from kids or your furry friends!
