PHILODENDRON BIRKIN 6 IN.

Meet the Philodendron Birkin, a houseplant that truly earns its spot on the windowsill. With those striking, creamy white pinstripes against dark, glossy green leaves, it looks high-maintenance, but here is the secret: it is incredibly easy to grow. Unlike many of its cousins, this compact beauty doesn't climb/vine; it stays neat and self-heading, making it perfect for tabletops and smaller spaces.

To keep those variegations crisp and bright, give this plant plenty of bright, indirect light. The "why" is simple: if it sits in deep shade, the leaves will revert to solid green to absorb more energy, losing that signature look. Water only when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch—these roots hate sitting in wet soil. It is a slow grower, so be patient and enjoy the unfolding of each unique leaf. It’s a touch of tropical elegance that fits right into any home.
