giant pothos philodendron Giant PhilodendronThe name says it all. Giant lush leaves will adorn your living room just like a monstera. This is one of, if not the largest growing Philodendron in the world but only becomes huge in NZ in ideal conditions like a greenhouse. For such a big beast, the list of care requirements is decidedly short and sweet. Treat your giganteum to a climbing pole and it'll be one of the shining stars of your collection but it's able to support itself without this.

Light Requirements: Bright Indirect Light is ideal, tolerant of medium light.

Moisture & Soil Requirements: Prefers evenly moist soil with good drainage in warm seasons and slightly drier in winter. Grows well in bark or sphagnum. Can handle short dry spells when the stem is large and thick.

Growth & Nutrients: A climbing Philodendron that is able to support itself upright without a pole to climb. Suits apartments or homes of any size. Feed with a general-purpose fertiliser for containers from the start of spring each year to autumn when growth slows down.

Temperature, Humidity & Ambient requirements: Prefers warm, humid environments inside but can be grown outdoors in frost-free northern areas of NZ.

Toxicity: Toxic to pets and people. Don't chomp down on this ever.
