Philodendron Atabapoense is a climbing species native to Venezuela and Brazil, named for the Río Atabapo region. It produces long, narrow, arrow-shaped leaves that are green above and often flushed burgundy to purple underneath.
Note: this is an established, potted plant shipped in its nursery pot. Photos show a representative specimen — leaf count, size and variegation vary naturally from plant to plant.
Care tip: Give it a pole — Philodendron atabapoense is a climber and its leaves lengthen dramatically once it can attach and climb.
Give it bright, indirect light and a chunky, well-draining aroid mix, and water once the top inch or two has dried. Moderate to high humidity keeps new leaves unfurling cleanly.
A true species Philodendron with elegant elongated leaves — a standout on a moss pole.
