The most grandiose, statement plant; the Philodendron Giganteum, or Giant Philodendron exceeds expectations. Its magnificent luscious green foliage can measure over 2 feet in length. These plants are true opportunists. Their aerial roots allow them to climb up adjacent trees, much like the Monstera Deliciosa. The broad leaves enable the Giant Philodendron to absorb as much light as possible as it filters through the forest canopy above.
Native to the Caribbean and Brazil, the Philodendron Giganteum is a popular choice among botany and horticulture enthusiasts alike for its ability to fill out empty spaces.
