Philodendron tortum

Twisted Beauty with a Touch of Whimsy

The remarkable Philodendron tortum is a unique aroid that sports twisted, deeply lobed leaves that look like they’ve been sculpted by hand. Originating from the tropical forests of South America, this plant’s quirky growth pattern sets it apart from other philodendrons.

As it climbs or trails, the leaves grow in a fun, curly configuration that gets more defined with age. It’s perfect for those who want something a little different in their collection.

Our tortum plants are propagated via tissue culture and acclimated for three months to promote healthy roots and vibrant growth.

Care Tips:

• Light: Bright, indirect light.

• Humidity: Prefers high humidity, ideally 60%+.

• Water: Keep soil lightly moist, but let it dry out a little between waterings.

• Growth Habit: Climbs or trails, offering plenty of flexibility.

• Soil: Our Tropical Green Aroid Mix ensures moisture retention without sogginess, which is perfect for this quirky species.

Unique and fun, Philodendron tortum is a must for collectors seeking something truly different.
