PHILODENDRON 'MCDOWELL'

If you are looking for a statement piece that screams luxury and has truly magnificent foliage, the Philodendron 'McDowell' is an absolute masterpiece. This hybrid is famous for its massive, deep green, corrugated leaves, which can grow several feet long when mature. It has a stunning, low-growing, creeping habit, making it an incredible floor plant that will dominate a corner of any room.

To support those huge leaves, the 'McDowell' needs consistent, but gentle, care. Place it in a spot with bright, indirect light—think near a shaded east or west window. Avoid direct sun, which can easily scorch those velvety leaves. The key to watering is balance: water when the top two inches of soil are dry, but make sure the pot drains completely. This plant appreciates high humidity, so regular misting or using a humidifier nearby will help keep the foliage looking pristine and prevent brown edges. It’s a spectacular showpiece that’s well worth the effort!
