This is being posted in FB Marketplace as a Philodendron Micans. I've got one but it does NOT look anything like this.... is this something to run away from?

Haii,

There’s a lot of scammers who post these and sell them to you but never send the plant. Just make sure it’s a reputable seller. I don’t trust anyone listing these for less than $20 bucks online 😆

#### StormLover replied on 2024-12-14

😆 That's why I'm skeptical!

😆 if it’s too good to be true, it probably is 😭

Yea, micans leaves actually get pretty big when mature or moss pole. Always pay with PayPal, for goods and services. As they will give you your money back if its a scam. I literallyjust had to do this from an etsy seller. And its exactlywhy i always use them. .

Oh! My PayPal got hacked and my bank reimbursed me but PayPal didn't. I do person or cash. I like to see plants personally!
