Can anyone tell me … are an oak leaf philo & horsehead philo the same thing? If they aren’t can you help me identify this little guy? He’s so young.

Harlequin, Happy Leaf, Manjula or something else? Thanks for any help!

Hello! I’m new to plant parenting and am trying to correctly identify all the new plants I brought home. Is this a Harlequin, Happy Leaf or Manjula, maybe?

Today, I brought home two Philodendron (one a repeat purchase due to a thrip attack,) but this beautiful, large-leaved plant is brand new. The tag just said “Philodendron sp” but it doesn’t look like a Colombia due to the venation. The tag didn’t display any further information. Please comment if you have any ideas of what they could be!

Hi guys, I am new to this site but, I must say, this probably my favorite plant to grow indoors. If you are looking for a fantastic place to pick up a nice variety, I’m in TN so hopefully your Lowes also has them. Very reasonable and they are still in plastic pots so not an up charge for a pot. I am not affiliated with them at all. Just sharing with my other plant lovers. The last plant I pictured is over 48 years old. I know it doesn’t look it but with a recent move we rescued pieces. It’s coming back nicely. I’m guessing most of you belong to Planta, I really like this site but, I use it as a reminder. I still stick my finger in the dirt to make sure it needs watering. Some of the overwatering I have seen on this site might benefit from that. Anyway, I’m happy to be here. Sorry for the long post.

These leaves just turned yellow on my plant! D: They’re in the same location, but the stems are not in the same grouping (idk if that means anything). I watered her on Tuesday Can someone help me figure out what’s happening??

My two volatile and bratty kids. I moved one to the window and he threw a fit, lost his new leaf and might be doing ok now..: the other has taken over the corner and I don't want to move him again because he is finally bouncing back. Any tips for my Orange prince? He was overwatered and got mad. Should I move him again? He was in terrible shape away from the window. 😑

Got this little baby over a week ago and he is doing well. I am afraid to water him or move him :-(

This is labeled as a daybreak philodendron, and I don’t think that’s an actual type of philodendron… any ideas on what it actually is? TIA ☺️

Hey guys! I’ve finally found one in real life and had to grab it. Any tips or tricks to help this baby thrive? I have a humidifier that I put one maybe once a week.

Hey plant friends, help me out with today’s conundrum. I’ve come to realize that what I thought was a white knight may be a white princess. He’s displaying a pink spot. I’m okay with that, I got it for a steal at a flea market. What I’m stuck on is, everywhere I look it says/shows the white princess has a green stem. The stem of this guy is clearly not green. What philodendron do you guys think I have here?

Does anybody have any tips for philo. Mamei, I’ve had mine for a few months now and she’s growing quickly but the leaves aren’t dark or silver at all they’re always this like green ?? She’s had a repot and is in a nice chunky aroid mix and gets watered when a lost dry.

Roots are coming up from soil. Do I need to repot the plant?

First new leaf (second pic) since getting this guy about two months ago! First pic is what the plant looked like for the entirety of those two months! It only started growing once I got a grow light in that room. I was worried he would be stagnant forever 😅 Happy planting 🌱
