About this plant
Silver Stripe is an uncommon form of the heartleaf philodendron with glossy, heart-shaped leaves brushed with silvery gray and a stripe of lime green down the center. The mix of silver and lime gives each leaf a soft, painted look.
Care is as easy as any heartleaf. Medium to bright, indirect light brings out the silver; it tolerates lower light but the pattern fades. Water when the top inch of soil is dry and let it drain.
It arrives in a 4 inch pot and trails quickly once settled, so it is lovely on a shelf, in a hanging pot or climbing a small pole. Pinch the tips to keep it full. An easy way to add something a little rare to a collection.
The ASPCA lists heartleaf philodendron (Philodendron hederaceum) as toxic to cats and dogs, so keep it out of reach of cats and dogs.
From November to April, we recommend adding Winter Plant Shipping Protection (a heat pack) at checkout. Plants shipped in cold weather without it are not covered for cold damage.
