Lacy Tree Philodendron

(Thaumatophyllum bipinnatifidum)

Own a piece of living history with the Lacy Tree Philodendron. These are not young seedlings; they are architectural specimens with established trunks and expansive, high-density foliage.

Bare-rooted shipping is a method that preserves the plants most prized feature its extensive system of aerial roots while ensuring your new centerpiece arrives safely.

Stem to Leaf tip measures 50+ centimeters.

Choosing bare-rooted specimens offers a prehistoric aesthetic with plentiful aerial roots trailing from the trunk, providing a stunning, raw jungle look that is often lost in standard nursery potting.  Each plant creates an immediate green screen for your interior.

They are secured with moisture-retaining medium and encased in custom reinforced packaging to ensure the stems arrive safely.

 Remember: Toxic to pets if ingested. 

Secrets to Succes 

1. Arrival & Awakening: Upon delivery, soak the bare roots in room-temp water for 2 hours. Pot into a large container using a "chunky" aroid mix (bark, perlite, potting soil) to support the aerial roots. If planted outdoors, protect against frost.
2. The Light Balance: Position in bright, indirect light. It loves a sun-drenched room,  but avoid harsh midday sun to prevent leaf scorch. 
3. The "Magic" Tell: This plant communicates its needs. Its massive 60cm stems will visibly droop when it is thirsty or craving more light, making it one of the most intuitive large-scale plants to care for.
