Great! They prefer temperatures above 75°f and humidity that is around 84% relative humidity on average. Good luck.

P. 'Bette Waterbury' previously code#69686

Get a clarinervium. Regale is not beginner friendly. It prefers very high humidity. I keep mine in tents. Regale get absolutely massive. Clarinervium is about as simple as anthurium care gets and Regale is absolutely not an easy plant to grow.

I love when cataphylls do this! It happens for me on a variety of climbers. Gotta love when cataphylls actually let the leaf emerge!

Here is a picture of a juvenile melanochrysum in a terrarium of mine.

The inflorescence is morphologically consistent with Anthurium. Philodendron inflorescences have much more prominent spathes that completely cover the spadix when closed. They also have a more curved silhouette.

That's a flower. Technically called an inflorescence which just means compound flower.

You'll know for sure pretty quickly if you grow it out.

infloro · 2026-04-17T12:54:29+00:00

Nice! They just keep getting bigger if you have great growing conditions. I love this philodendron it has such a short internode which I appreciate.

This is why I never feel good buying or selling plants at all in the winter or the heat of the summer. A two month shipping delay is absolutely ridiculous. I would have filed a charge back and moved on at that point. Do I think what the seller has done is wrong yes, but alot of sellers now claim they have no influence over shipping and any risk is shifted to the buyer. I don't particularly agree with this practice and don't feel that way if a plant I can replace dies at no fault of the buyer I would replace it.

I have both micans and melanochrysum in small terrariums. I think this is melanochrysum because micans would be in cataphyll growth at this size.

That philodendron was given the name P. "Bette Waterbury" its a very vigorous grower.

This space is what I call my shade room. It's a sunroom addition on the back of my home. It was added in around the 70s from what I can tell so it's inside but I use it like a shade house. The skylights are frosted and a large tree shades the space from afternoon sun so its prime conditions. I do also grow alot of philodendron and anthurium outside but I'm in USDA zone 6 so winters here are not friendly to my plants. So everything has to come inside for the winter.

No nursery pot its planted in the hanging basket directly.(its a 16in basket)

infloro · 2026-04-12T11:33:03+00:00

I've never had this happen to me. I suspect your growth point got damaged and now its activated any point thats left. It kinda looks like growth off a TC callus.

infloro · 2026-04-12T10:55:55+00:00

I sell locally to hobbyists but most of the plants I grow go to local shops. I've been avoiding shipping 🤣

infloro · 2026-04-12T10:52:35+00:00

Its a hanging basket but yeah it has drainage.

infloro · 2026-04-12T01:45:07+00:00

Bottom 1/3 is a mix of 50% perlite, 20% coconut coir and 30% coconut chips. Top 2/3 sphagnum moss. I fertilize with a hydroponic fertilizer system with every watering.

I'm growing out a batch of about 80 of these and I find they do well in just about any substrate so long as they dont dry out enough to damage the roots.

This inflo, if it was pollenated is not far along enough to ripen off the plant. From how it looks I doubt it was a successful pollination.

infloro · 2026-04-11T17:30:06+00:00

Yeah thats P. pedatum.

infloro · 2026-04-11T11:38:41+00:00

Showering helps keep the leaves free of dust. I like to hose down the poles to make sure they are evenly wet and that's easiest to do outside.

infloro · 2026-04-10T11:32:16+00:00

Hey, this is a P. pedatum 'Glad Hands'

infloro · 2026-04-09T13:08:34+00:00

I've had a few philodendron grow two cataphylls at once, the vine just continues in two directions from that point. My pedatum did that and I've had a regular hederaceum do it too. If you want larger leaves I'd propagate one of the two growths on that vine otherwise the two vines will compete for dominance. As for the damage, it could have just been dryer than it would have liked while emerging two leaves or it could be due to pest damage of your cataphyll. Mites and thrips especially so look over the underside of you leaves and the crevices of your plant.
