Philodendron 'Tortum'

Philodendron ‘Tortum’ looks like someone crossed a houseplant with a tiny prehistoric fern, and honestly, that is part of the charm. Its narrow, deeply divided leaves give it a delicate, feathery look that stands out immediately from the usual heart-shaped philodendrons.

Give it medium to bright indirect light, well-draining soil, and a little patience while it settles in. Allow the top few inches of soil to dry out between waterings, then water thoroughly. It appreciates some humidity, but it does not need your home to become a rainforest to be happy.

This is a great choice for collectors who want something unusual without adding a plant that needs constant supervision.
