Native habitat and growth pattern
Philodendron micans comes from the rainforests of Central and South America, where it trails and climbs beneath the canopy. In the wild, it attaches itself to trees with aerial roots, but indoors it’s equally happy cascading gracefully from a hanging pot or climbing up a moss pole.

Size
W12cm nursery pot x H25cm. Supplied in a plastic nursery pot.

Styling tips

  • Stunning trailing plant for shelves, sideboards, or hanging planters

  • Train up a moss pole for a more structured, climbing look

  • Adds texture and depth to plant collections with its velvety leaves

  • Perfect for creating a lush, rainforest-inspired interior

Philodendron micans care guide

Light requirements:
Enjoys bright, indirect light but will tolerate lower light levels. Avoid harsh direct sun which may scorch the leaves.

Watering:
Water when the top few centimetres of soil feel dry. Keep the soil lightly moist but never soggy.

Feeding:
Feed once a month in spring and summer with a balanced fertiliser. For the best results, use our vegan, organic Original Plant Food, specially made for tropical foliage.

Humidity:
Thrives in normal household humidity but appreciates extra misting or placement in a naturally humid room such as a kitchen or bathroom.

Pet safety:
Toxic if ingested — keep away from cats and dogs.

Propagation:
Easily propagated from stem cuttings in water or soil.

Why choose this plant?

Philodendron micans is one of the most unique trailing philodendrons, loved for its velvety texture and iridescent leaves that shift colour in different light. Unlike many rare philodendrons, it’s forgiving and easy to grow, making it a fantastic choice for beginners and collectors alike.

This plant adapts well to both trailing and climbing displays, so you can style it to suit your home. Whether you want a cascading waterfall of leaves from a shelf or a bold vertical accent on a moss pole, it delivers drama and lush greenery with very little effort.

As a gift, it’s a plant that always impresses. Its exotic look, low-maintenance care, and constant colour shifts make it a living piece of art — a thoughtful present for any plant lover.

FAQs

Why are the leaves on my Philodendron micans turning yellow?

How fast does it grow indoors?
It’s a moderately fast grower and, with support, can trail or climb to impressive lengths.

New growth often emerges with a pinkish edge before maturing to green or bronze.

Exactly what I needed for my bathroom refresh.
Color: B. Rustic Brown - Americana Farmhouse Style, Number Of Shelves: 2, Size: 22.5inches, Color: B. Rustic Brown - Americana Farmhouse Style, Number Of Shelves: 2, Size: 22.5inches
I bought these floating shelves in the color Rustic Brown to replace a bulky storage shelf that was making my bathroom feel cramped, and they completely transformed the space. The wood finish looks much more expensive than I expected, and once installed they gave the bathroom a clean, modern, spa-like feel without taking up visual space. Installation was straightforward overall. I mounted one screw in the center into a stud and used drywall anchors for the remaining hardware, and the shelves feel very sturdy. They sit flush against the wall and don’t sag or wobble. I especially love how slim they are while still being deep enough to hold everyday bathroom items, decor, candles, skincare, and small baskets. The color worked perfectly with my bathroom vanity and mirror trim, and the floating design instantly made the room look more organized and intentional. Huge upgrade for a small space. Definitely recommend if you want functional storage that also looks elevated and minimalist.

Good Shelves
Color: B. Rustic Brown - Americana Farmhouse Style, Number Of Shelves: 3, Size: 22.5inches
These shelves are really nice quality and look as advertised. The hardware included was great quality, metal drywall anchors and good screws. They were easy to install, and make even/level with each other. My only gripe is the price, but I'm very satisfied with the product overall.
