Philodendron squamiferum
Philodendron squamiferum combines green climbing foliage with red, bristly petioles. Young plants can produce simpler leaves, while mature climbing growth develops a more divided outline.
The plant grows from a climbing stem with nodes and aerial roots. A pole guides the stem upward, while open space around the support lets the lobed blades expand.
Red bristly petioles and mature lobing in Philodendron squamiferum
- Petioles: Red bristly petioles add texture below the leaf blades.
- Leaf shape: Green leaves become more lobed as the plant matures.
- Growth habit: Climbing stem with aerial-root development at the nodes.
- Juvenile growth: Young leaves may be simpler before mature lobing becomes clearer.
- Indoor outline: Upright growth leaves open space for lobed leaves around the climbing stem.
- Origin: A botanical species recorded from the Guianas and northern Brazil in wet tropical conditions.
How Philodendron squamiferum develops on support
Philodendron squamiferum is a climbing species with red bristly petioles and leaves that become more divided as the plant matures. When aerial roots attach to a coarse surface, the stem can climb upward and leave more space for the lobed blades.
The red bristly petioles sit below the leaves along the upright stem. A vertical surface also keeps mature foliage from crowding the pot as the stem gains height.
Philodendron squamiferum care for climbing growth
- Light level: Keep it in bright indirect light so developing leaves receive enough light with lower scorch risk.
- Watering: Let the upper substrate partly dry between waterings, especially when room temperatures are lower.
- Humidity: Moderate to high humidity helps new lobed leaves expand with fewer dry edges.
- Temperature: Warm, stable conditions keep new roots and climbing nodes active.
- Potting mix: Use a chunky mix to keep oxygen around the roots after watering.
- Climbing support: A moss pole or coarse vertical surface lets aerial roots attach as the stem climbs.
- Repotting: Repot when the root system fills the pot or the support can no longer hold the stem securely.
- Fertilising: Feed lightly during active growth, especially when the plant is producing larger lobed leaves.
- Pruning: Remove damaged foliage and guide side shoots back toward support before the stem becomes awkward to train.
- Semi-hydroponics: Mineral culture can work if the roots are well aerated and the climbing stem remains stable above the pot.
Philodendron squamiferum leaf and root problems
- Simple new leaves: Low light, weak attachment or juvenile growth can keep leaves less divided.
- Brown tips: Check humidity and watering consistency before increasing water volume.
- Root rot: Wet, compacted substrate can damage roots and yellow older leaves.
- Aerial roots: Smooth supports may not give aerial roots enough grip as the stem gains weight.
- Crowded foliage: Lobed leaves can mark or bend if the plant is pressed against shelves or neighbouring plants.
- Pests: Inspect bristly petioles, leaf backs and new growth for mites, mealybugs and scale.
Philodendron squamiferum safety
Philodendron squamiferum contains irritating calcium oxalate crystals and should not be chewed or ingested.
Published description and name of Philodendron squamiferum
Philodendron squamiferum was described by Eduard Friedrich Poeppig and published in Nova Genera ac Species Plantarum in 1845. The species name squamiferum means scale-bearing, matching the bristly texture on the petioles.
With a stable support, Philodendron squamiferum can mature from simpler juvenile leaves into more lobed foliage on an upright stem.

Sturdy, Space-Saving Organizer That Makes Cabinets Way More Functional
The **BOIVSHI 2-Tier Vertical Pull-Out Spice Rack Organizer** is a really practical upgrade if you’re trying to clean up a cluttered cabinet or pantry. The vertical design makes excellent use of narrow spaces, and the **smooth sliding rails** are one of the best parts—it pulls out cleanly so you can actually see everything instead of digging through shelves.
The metal frame feels solid and heavy-duty, and the chrome finish gives it a clean, modern look that blends well inside most cabinets. It’s especially helpful for organizing spice jars, oils, sauces, or small pantry items so everything stays upright and easy to grab.
Installation is fairly simple, and once mounted, it feels stable when sliding in and out. The motion is smooth enough that it doesn’t feel like it’s going to jam or tip items over, which is a common issue with cheaper pull-out racks.
One thing to keep in mind is sizing—this type of organizer works best in **standard-width cabinets**, so measuring your space first is important. Also, like most pull-out systems, it’s more about **function and accessibility** than maximizing sheer storage volume.
Overall, it’s a very effective way to turn wasted cabinet space into organized, accessible storage. If you’re tired of stacked spice jars or cluttered shelves, this is a strong upgrade.

A Sturdy Spice Rack With Some Perks and Some Limitations
We really needed a new spice rack that holds a variety of bottle sizes, and this one is made for a pretty brand-specific bottle style. It does hold some of the older model metal containers, so it looks like we will be adapting to the newer sizes and shapes. This organizer is easy to assemble and fits the space I designed perfectly. The bottom shelf is very sturdy, and the top shelf is not quite as solid, and I'm not sure exactly why.
One thing is for sure: when you fill this spice rack to capacity, you will have all the spices necessary for a well-stocked kitchen. We have not filled it up, but my guess is that we can fit between 35 and 40 individual spice bottles and cans.
Overall, it is at the higher end of value for the money, but it may serve us perfectly through the years and prove itself to be an excellent value and keep all of our spices well organized.

Very nice pull-out spice rack for square bottles. Mount with screws for permanence.
This Boivshi spice rack organizer is made with stainless steel, and has racks deep enough to keep your spice jars securely in place. There’s a thin plastic sheet for the bottom of each rack. Due to the shape of the racks, I recommend using square spice jars rather than round ones. My 6 ounce square jars fit well, and each rack holds 5 jars. Or you can use the smaller 4 ounce square spice jars and fit 6 jars in each rack. The 4 ounce jars will be looser and slide around more when you pull each rack out. I also recommend getting some round ingredient labels for your jar lids so you can identify contents quickly without having to lift each jar to look at the label. The stainless steel metal is thick, smooth and well attached, with nicely rounded corners. The top row is height adjustable. Each rack has its own extension mechanism. That means when you pull out a rack, it doesn’t pull out the entire row. This is especially important if you’ve used the adhesive to attach the rack to your pantry shelf or inside a cabinet as a top heavy item will pull and loosen the adhesive over time. The rack comes with mounting adhesive and wood mounting screws and its own screwdriver, another bonus for ease of installation. You can choose to mount the rack with the adhesive or the screws. My personal preference here is to attach this rack with the provided screws rather than the adhesive. With glass jars and weight that’s being pulled out over a tile floor in a pantry or over a hard countertop, having the risk of adhesive giving way is inviting disaster. So consider all the options when deciding on how to attach it. Overall, this Boivshi Spice Rack Organizer is very well made, and is a good deal at this price point. I definitely recommend it.

Expensive, but Smooth, Sturdy Spice Rack
I received the BOIVSHI Spice Rack Organizer through the Vine program, and overall I’m quite pleased with its quality.
The rack feels sturdy and well-made. The metal construction has a solid, heavy-duty feel, and the chrome finish gives it a clean, modern look that works well in most kitchens.
The pull-out mechanism is smooth and glides nicely. The 2-tier design is efficient and makes good use of vertical space. Installation was fairly easy and the instructions are simple enough to follow.
For me, it is limited to smaller spice bottles, due to the configuration of my cabinet which limits the available height of the top tier. Also, the rack has to be secured to the surface, either with screws or adhesive mount, to prevent it from sliding around.
Overall, it is well made and a practical solution for organizing spices. If your cabinet dimensions are compatible and you mostly use standard-size spice jars, it’s a solid upgrade that makes everyday cooking more convenient.
However, this is a very expensive spice rack, if you compare it to similar items.

Good size, looks nice, mostly easy to put together and install
Okay I love this a lot more than I expected to. I was not extremely excited about the instructions. They come with a warning that if you have any doubts about your ability to install this, call a qualified technician. It just seemed condescending. Also, everything is printed poorly, like someone put this together in the 80's and it printed smudgingly and this is the copies from that. The only thing that this made confusing was when trying to figure out where the cabinet screws go (before I realized that was an alternative install), you really can't tell which holes they go in. Turns out they probably go in the holes covered by the pre-installed sticky PVC mat.
Only other issue I had was that it comes with a screwdriver. It seems so wasteful to include something that should be in every household, especially those who buy diy things like this.
But beyond that, everything else is great. It was easy to put together, it was easy to place in the cupboard, and it was easy to fill.
I love that each line comes out individually. It's nice and sturdy. I tried pulling on it to test it, and the sticky was strong.
I mostly loved that, even though this took up 3/4 of the shelf, I was able to fit all my small spices AND my honey AND my sprinkles. I went from 3 overflowing shelves to 2 full shelves and an almost empty one. I only have 6 items on the top. I feel super happy about this.
