Philodendron Silver Sword

Plant Scientific Name: Philodendron hastatum ‘Silver Sword.’
Plant Common Name: Philodendron Silver Sword
Plant Description: Philodendron Silver Sword is a striking climbing philodendron valued for its elongated, metallic silver-blue leaves that deepen in colour as the plant matures. With proper support, it develops larger, more dramatic foliage and creates a bold architectural statement in any indoor space. Its fast growth and unique colouring make it a favourite among collectors and modern plant lovers.
Water: Water when the top 3–5 cm of soil has dried out. Keep soil evenly moist but well-draining. Avoid waterlogged conditions to prevent root rot.
Temperature & Humidity: Prefers temperatures between 18–30°C. Thrives in moderate to high humidity but adapts well to normal indoor conditions. Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below 12°C.
Pet Safety: Toxic to pets. Contains calcium oxalates and should be kept out of reach of cats and dogs.
Pro Tip: Provide a moss pole or support to encourage larger leaves and stronger silver colouring. Bright indirect light will enhance leaf size and maintain the plant’s metallic sheen.
