What kind are you looking for? There are many many common varieties that are cheap but the rarer they get the more expensive theyāll be (as with any plant)
1 gillaThey tend to be more expensive because they are slower to grow, normally or in TC. So they are more expensive. Vs like a syngonium or some other faster growing and multiplying plants.
1 gilla$35? For which philodendren?
1 gillaI came across a pink princess at the plant store for $35
1 gillaConsidering my collection, $35 is cheaper š š¤£ but maybe you could find someone selling cuttings? Or maybe try a different store? Pink princess i have was $10, the dark cherry i have was i belive $15 both as starter plants from TheGreenEscape on etsy/palmstreet

1 gillaI forget whether it was lowes or home depot, but one of them had TC starter philodendrons for like $5-10 each. Also try checking back repeatedly to watch for sales; plants that start at $25-30 often drop down to $10-15 as they linger past peak season
1 gillaThank you so much everyone! I appreciate your help. A philodendron may come across your feed in the near future lol
