Philodendron Bipennifolium

Philodendron bipennifolium—often called the Horsehead Philodendron—is a unique and fast-growing climbing aroid, admired for its distinctive, lobed leaves that resemble the shape of a horse’s head. The glossy green foliage features elongated lobes and a slightly wavy structure, giving the plant a bold, sculptural appearance. As it matures and climbs, the leaves become larger and more dramatically shaped.

This variety thrives in bright, indirect light, which supports strong growth and enhances leaf development. It prefers a chunky, well-draining aroid mix and moderate watering—allowing the top 1–2 inches of soil to dry slightly between waterings. With climbing support such as a moss pole, bipennifolium will produce larger, more impressive foliage over time.

• Water: Keep soil lightly moist; allow the top 1–2 inches to dry slightly between waterings

With its distinctive leaf shape and vigorous growth, Philodendron bipennifolium is a customer favorite—perfect for adding texture, movement, and bold tropical character to any indoor plant collection.
