notes
Bearing large heart-shaped, glossy leaves and embellished with deeply lobed edges, the Philodendron Shangri La is bush-like in its structure, and therefore does not require support like its vine-like counterparts. The younger foliage is a simpler in its shape, though as the plant matures, newer leaves will develop with deeper indentations. Please note, the pot cover featured is not included.

(approx.): H: 48cm (1ft 7in) x W: 30cm (12in)

Insights
Philodendrons form an enormous family of plants that originated in the South American rainforest where they thrive in the filtered light of the canopy. The name comes from the Greek meaning ‘lover of trees’ since many are epiphytic and clamber vine-like through the trees. This variety is ‘self-heading’, new growth springing from a central rosette.
