Philodendron inconcinnum is a climbing Philodendron appreciated for its glossy, boat-shaped leaves and vigorous growth habit.
Philodendron inconcinnum originates from Venezuela's tropical rainforests, where it grows in the understory, climbing trees or sprawling along the forest floor. Its leaves are glossy and elongated, with a slightly arching shape, reflecting its adaptation to dappled light conditions in its native environment.
Keep the soil consistently moist, watering when the top inch feels dry to the touch. Use a pot with good drainage to avoid waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. During the winter months, reduce watering slightly to account for slower growth while still maintaining moisture.
Bright, indirect light is ideal for this plant, replicating the filtered sunlight it receives in its native habitat. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves. A spot near an east or north-facing window is perfect, though it can tolerate lower light levels with slower growth.
This plant thrives in high humidity levels, preferring an environment of 60-70%. To replicate these conditions indoors, use methods such as misting, pebble trays, or humidifiers. Its humidity requirements make it a great candidate for terrariums, provided its size is manageable within the space.
Philodendron inconcinnum grows best in temperatures between 18-24°C. It should be kept away from cold draughts and sudden temperature fluctuations, which can stress the plant. Avoid letting temperatures drop below 12°C, as this can stunt growth or damage the plant.
