Luxurious and sculptural, Philodendron ‘Plowmanii’ is a stunning species prized for its broad, rippled leaves with thick, textured stems. As it matures, each leaf develops deep pleats and prominent veins, giving it a dynamic, almost living quality. A slow but steady grower, ‘Plowmanii’ creeps along the surface rather than climbing, making it perfect for a floor planter or a wide, shallow pot where it can spread naturally. A collector’s favourite and a true statement piece.

Scientific Name
Philodendron plowmanii

(plowmanii = named in honour of botanist Timothy Plowman, renowned for his work on tropical plants)

Common Name
Crawling Philodendron, Plowman’s Philodendron

Origin
Native to the tropical rainforests of Ecuador and Peru, where it grows as a ground-crawling aroid beneath the forest canopy.

Light
Prefers bright, indirect light. It will tolerate medium light, but brighter conditions (without harsh sun) will encourage larger, more textured leaves.

Water
Water when the top 3–5 cm of soil feels dry. Keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Allow slightly more drying between waterings during cooler months.

Humidity
Loves high humidity (60–80% if possible). Mist regularly or use a pebble tray or humidifier to maintain lush, vibrant growth.

Soil
Use a rich, well-draining aroid mix – a blend of houseplant compost, orchid bark, perlite, and coco coir will mimic its natural environment beautifully.

Food
Feed every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertiliser. Feeding promotes larger, healthier leaf growth. Pause feeding during winter dormancy.

Temperature
Ideal range is 18–26°C. Avoid exposure to temperatures below 15°C and protect from cold draughts.

Pet-safe
No – Philodendron species are toxic if ingested by pets and humans.

Sprouts Top Tips
Support its creeping nature by giving it a wide pot with room to spread. Wipe the broad leaves gently to keep them free from dust and enjoy the beautiful texture and veining that make this Philodendron so special.

Cute shelf set!
Color: Brown, Color: Brown
Shelves look great in my room. Perfect amount of space to display my little travel trinkets. Super easy to install and seem to hold a good amount of weight as I have a Mason Jar full of sand/shells on one of them.

I only needed 3 of the 4 shelves so I have one as a backup! Very easy to install as well. The shelves feel sturdy and I’ve never had any issues!

quality matches cost + instructions unnecessarily tedious
Color: Brown, Color: Brown
The material is real wood but don't assume that means quality - it's still very cheap feeling, and very lightweight. But once installed they are quite stable, and they look great from afar. I got a darker colored one and the stain does come off very easily. One of the shelves had a huge manufacturer sticker on it and it took off the stain when I removed it, and a bit of the stain also came off when I wiped the shelves down with a wet cloth. It'll be dry dusting from now on, I suppose. Also, they did not fit snugly into the corner - when one side is pushed flush to the wall, it forces the other side to pull away from the wall a little bit. It wasn't a drastic space, maybe like 1/8th of an inch, but it is still something to note. I am fine with the cheap quality as they are, after all, pretty cheap, so I'd say they are worth exactly as much as they cost. Personally I am happy with the purchase - just thought I'd warn. Secondly - if you want to follow the instructions exactly, you will need two people unless you have inhuman agility. But I also think the instructions were a bit asinine and tedious. They want you to line up the LOOSE shelf and brackets with a leveler to mark where the brackets go on the wall, then put in the wall screws, hang the brackets on them, balance the shelf on the brackets to mark on the SHELF where the brackets will be attached, take the brackets off the wall to screw them into the shelf, then put the combined shelf-bracket unit once again on the wall screws and finally screw those in tight. In hindsight, you can just mark where the brackets should go on the SHELF (not wall), screw the brackets into the shelves, THEN level the shelf on the wall and screw the whole unit into the wall together. We were really baffled why the instructions didn't have us do that instead of spending extra time (and frustration) trying to juggle all the loose pieces and tools. But I'm not engineer-minded, nor have I ever installed corner shelves before, so maybe there would be some kind of issue with doing it that way that I can't predict.

Good shelving decor
Color: Black
Easy to install and perfect for a corner display of Disney decor. They are lightweight, so we didn't put anything heavy on them, but the brackets seem sturdy enough that we could probably put something moderately weighty on them.
