Philodendron brandtianum
Philodendron brandtianum is a climbing species with small, heart-shaped juvenile leaves marked in strong silver-grey between the veins. It can trail when young, but its natural habit is appressed climbing, with stems growing close to trunks or other vertical surfaces.
Juvenile leaves stay smaller and strongly silver-marked, with green showing around the veins and margins. Older climbing growth may produce larger, greener leaves with a lighter silver pattern than the juvenile growth usually sold as a houseplant.
Philodendron brandtianum juvenile leaf pattern
- Leaf pattern: Heart-shaped juvenile leaves with strong silver-grey marking between the veins.
- Growth habit: An appressed climber that grows close to trunks and branches in habitat.
- Native range: Native to southern Colombia, northern Brazil and Bolivia.
- Biome: Recorded from the seasonally dry tropical biome.
Philodendron brandtianum adult leaf change
Philodendron brandtianum was published by K. Krause in 1913. The species is native to southern Colombia, northern Brazil and Bolivia.
The juvenile leaves are green, heart-shaped and overlaid with silver. Older climbing growth may become larger and greener, with less of the heavy silver pattern seen on juvenile leaves. On support, the plant can make a denser column of juvenile growth; left to hang, stems often stay thinner and leaves smaller.
Philodendron brandtianum support and leaf care
- Support: Use a slim pole, plank, or textured stake for its smaller leaves and close-climbing habit.
- Light: Give bright, diffused light to support denser growth. Direct sun can mark the thinner juvenile leaves.
- Temperature: Keep warm, ideally around 18–28°C, and avoid cold draughts or chilled windows.
- Watering: Let the top 25–40% of the pot dry before watering. This species tolerates slight drying better than a constantly wet root zone.
- Substrate: Use a loose mix with bark, perlite, and a moisture-holding organic base so fine roots get both air and even moisture.
- Humidity: Average indoor humidity is often tolerated, but higher humidity reduces dry tips and helps fresh leaves open smoothly.
- Repotting: Move up one pot size when roots fill the container, the mix dries very quickly, or the support needs a steadier base.
- Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced houseplant fertilizer, avoiding strong doses on dry roots.
- Propagation: Propagate from stem cuttings with at least one node; rooted tips and sections with aerial roots establish fastest.
- Pruning: Trim long stems above a node to encourage fuller growth, then root the cuttings to thicken the pot.
- Semi-hydroponics: Suitable for mineral or semi-hydro setups if transitioned gradually and kept with airflow around the crown.
Philodendron brandtianum pattern and stem issues
- Weak silver pattern: Check light first. Very low light can make growth thinner and less defined.
- Crispy tips: Often linked to dry air, irregular watering, or salt buildup. Flush the mix occasionally and avoid overfeeding.
- Thin, stretched stems: Move the plant closer to bright filtered light and give it a surface to climb.
- Yellowing after watering: Inspect the roots and lower stem. Fine or compacted soil can stay wet long enough to cause root stress.
- Pests: Check leaf undersides, petioles and stem nodes for spider mites, thrips, scale or mealybugs, especially on dense growth.
Philodendron brandtianum is harmful if eaten and may irritate skin or eyes through sap contact. Keep it away from pets and rinse your hands after pruning.
Philodendron brandtianum etymology and description history

This book is a 'Fraud'... perhaps not
Format: Paperback
This is my first Review ever on Amazon and I am doing this for the love of Hafiz. I am originally of Persian origin and a life long lover of Hafiz... Have visited his tomb and the beautiful city of Shiraz. For people who are looking for a perfect translation, let me tell you that this is not it, not even close. To translate Hafiz, is to try and reproduce Shakespeare in another language and have it somehow come out with the same texture for the modern age (perhaps impossible). So reading Hafiz in Farsi requires years and years of cultural, intellectual and spiritual studies. To me he was an enlightened artist that had walked the esoteric Sufi path to full and authentic comprehension/liberation, in the process one can sense his love for existence and connection to the source (his own being). It feels like he had reached a place where like any great artist he had the necessary tools developed physically/mentally/intellectually to be able to translate his mystical experiences fluently and effortlessly into an external art form (in his case lyric poetry and who knows what else). I am explaining my understanding of him/her to make a point here. Mr. Ladinsky has somehow connected to the essence of Hafiz. In order to comprehend Hafiz in another language (and a whole different time/setting), one has to somehow try the impossible and reproduce the texture by trying to remove vague cultural, intellectual and spiritual references with ideas and thoughts that resonate with people today. Ladinsky has tried and somehow succeeded with giving us a glimpse (just a glimpse) of Hafiz and his loving/playful spirit. In my opinion, this book is mainly an intro to Hafiz, but even an intro is enough to open the door for those that like to venture deeper. In Iran Hafiz (or Hafez) and his main and perhaps only book 'Divan' is read like an Oracle (like the I Ching) - with intention and perhaps a lingering question one opens up to a page to receive his guidance. Well this book, carries the same fire if you're able to get past your ideas of right and wrong and just tune into it. For many Iranians (lots of my own friends), this book brings up a lot of challenges and I can understand that because it's so different from the original, but yet if you are able to realize that his poetry was from over 600 years ago, from a time when the culture was so different and language was a lot more evolved, than maybe you can put into context what this book is actually doing. And yes, language was more evolved, just look at the older writings by poets and writers and it should be obvious (that's a whole other subject). Mr. Ladinsky, has tried his best and this seems like the only book so far that allows one to get a glimpse of Hafiz in the english language, but he also does fall short in many aspects obviously (There probably isn't anyone that could perfectly translate Hafiz, even in Iran people argue about the deeper meanings of most of his writings). Hafiz's words are from another dimension and brought to life in Farsi, so to truly feel Hafiz, one has to study Farsi.

Music of the Spheres
Format: Paperback
For me, Like many others who have read Dan Ladinsky's unique versions of Hafiz, I find them an ever fresh fountain. These poems hold the essence of experiential spirituality, the possibility of unlimited creativity, the ocean of love, the sweet agony of longing, and the unbearable joy of ectsasy.
It is difficult to remember that these miraculous jewels sprang from a life (Hafiz's)that was not without difficulty. The images here are startling and often hilarious and irreverent. But I think that most important Hafiz expands our ability to imagine and understand God. I grew up as a fundamentalist Christian and it never occurred to me that God could be as tender as this,
"When the violin can forgive the past It starts singing. . . . You will become such a drunk laughing nuisance That God will then lean down And start combing you into His hair."
Here is Hafiz's breathtaking yet practical image of unconditional love,
"Even after all this time The sun never says to the earth "You owe me." Look what happens with a love like that, It lights the whole sky."
In GREETING GOD Hafiz exquisitely describes spiritual longing this way,
". . .Tonight there is a jeweled falcon singing In a blessed pain using the tongue of Hafiz."
I have given more than a few copies of THE SUBJECT TONIGHT IS LOVE as gifts. Now I'll give the gift of THE GIFT.
I am a singer and a songwriter and I hear songs in these poems. Thank you Dan Ladinsky! You are like the "jeweled falcon" singing with "the tongue of Hafiz."
Many blessings
David Bankston, DMA

Quick and valuable read
Format: Paperback
I love this book. It’s not a sit down and read it through (unless you want to!). It’s a sit, turn to a random page, and read. Sit with it for a bit and think. It’s great poetry and always is insightful. I often purchase this as gifts for friends and is great to have on a “coffee table” or lamp stand.
