How big does Paraiso Verde grow?

  • Philodendron x Paraiso Verde

    is our favorite philodendron with striking leaves!
  • ✅ This large-leaf plant is perfect for growing indoors and is virtually care-free! It has long, beautifully variegated leaves with a mix of green, cream, and sometimes pinkish hues. Each leaf has a unique pattern, just like fingerprints! 💅
  • ✅ It grows fast and pretty big, so it needs some space. Each leaf is over a foot long. The plant can be trimmed as needed. Great solution for those who want to create some green paradise quickly.
  • ✅This variety is highly sought after by plant collectors due to its rarity and exotic appearance, and may be pretty expensive in trade.
  • ✅ As a bonus, Paraiso Verde helps purify the air by removing toxins, making it great for indoor environments - home or office.


👍 Create your tropical paradise indoors in no time!

How to take care of house plants in Winter



💡

Let There Be (Enough) Light!


Shorter days mean less light. Move plants closer to windows but avoid freezing drafts.

🚽

Water, but Sparingly


Overwatering is a winter no-no. Check soil dryness before watering—your plants won’t mind a little thirst.

🌈

Humidity is Happiness


Dry air isn't their friend. Use a humidifier or group plants together for a moisture boost.

👀

Wise Snacks


Use only amindo-acid based liquid Fertilizer in winter, like Sunshine Boosters. Let plants take their seasonal nap from dry plant food.

Keep It Cozy


Protect plants from cold windows and heat vents - consistent warmth is key.

🍀

Dust Those Leaves


Clean leaves help plants soak in the limited light. They'll thank you with a brighter look!

🌱 Your plants may slow down for winter, but with a little care, they’ll thrive until spring!
