PHILODENDRON HASTATUM GREY

The Philodendron Hastatum Grey, or ‘Silver Sword’, has smooth grey foliage with a slight metallic fleck. This vining Philodendron has quite a thick stem structure which can be grown into a unique formation with a simple thin stake to direct it, or a trellis for it to grow itself up. Without something to grow upon your Philodendron Silver Sword is likely to start to droop and look less appealing therefore providing a growing structure is recommended. As your plant grows and develops the size of its leaves will increase and become triangular in shape as it reach a moderate size of approximate one meters in height.

Philodendrons are known for their easy care and ability to adapt to the indoor conditions. Your Philodendron Silver Sword is no exception to this generalisation. It too requires little maintenance, is not very susceptible to pests, and follows the generic indoor plant rules of bright indirect sun, regular watering which is adjusted between seasons, and fertilise during periods of growth. The only additional consideration is around the use of care products such as fertilisers, or pest controls (should you ever require them). Either avoid contact with the leaves, or trial on a smaller leaf, as the silver colouring may make it more susceptible to discolour or cause damage.
