Philodendron is part of the Araceae family, 'Fuzzy Petiole' is often mistaken for Philodendron nangaritense. It’s red petioles are covered in tubercles, giving them a fuzzy appearance. Leaves are cordate and velutinous.

Plants with variegation will require more light and the white parts of the leaves will age faster.

Potting mix: A well draining mix composed of coco coir, perlite or vermiculite, orchid bark and worm castings.
