2 Philodendron squamiferum Starter Plants – Bare Root – Live Philodendron

Expand your tropical plant collection with this set of 2 Philodendron squamiferum starter plants. This unique climbing aroid is prized for its deeply lobed green leaves and its distinctive fuzzy red petioles, making it a favorite among rare Philodendron collectors. As it matures, it develops into an impressive climbing houseplant when provided with a moss pole or trellis.

This listing includes two (2) live starter plants originally grown in 2-inch nursery pots. Please note these are starter plants inserted into 2-inch nursery pots and are not fully rooted into the pots. Each plant has a fully established root system and is shipped bare root with its original soil pod carefully wrapped to protect the roots during transit. The 2-inch nursery pots are not included.

Please do not remove or disturb the soil pod upon arrival. You will receive healthy starter plants similar to those shown in the listing photos. As living plants, natural variation in leaf shape, color, and overall appearance should be expected.
