What is this? I've had it for a while and just treating it like any other philodendron, and it's been happy and also really slow growing. I put it under a grow light and a new leaf popped, but it grew too close to the light and burned in a pattern. So I moved it away and it is happy but just kinda stopped making new leaves at the fast rate it was going at. That leaf spike has been there for around 4 months.
Put a humidifier or pebble tray under it along with the grow light then watch it go crazy in growth
0 Me gusta Consider dusting off your foliage more front and back to keep it rid of dust. This helps with photosynthesis better. I keep my certain treasures leaves clean off weekly front and back with a wet paper towel and neem oil .. I keep the foliage dust free
One in the left looks to be a ficus elastics burgundy and the other would be some sort of philodendron. But that’s just a guess because I don’t have any philodendron
0 Me gustaI’m open to being entirely wrong but that looks more like a possible bird of paradise to me!
0 Me gusta No it's got the philodendron growth pattern. A lot of people are used to seeing the vinier types. I have a few cuttings taken from it and the roots can confirm, but I still have no clue what variety it is.
0 Me gusta Although I see your confusion, it's not a very good pic. Here's a better one.
