Philodendron squamiferum

Philodendron squamiferum combines green climbing foliage with red, bristly petioles. Young plants can produce simpler leaves, while mature climbing growth develops a more divided outline.

The plant grows from a climbing stem with nodes and aerial roots. A pole guides the stem upward, while open space around the support lets the lobed blades expand.

Red bristly petioles and mature lobing in Philodendron squamiferum

  • Petioles: Red bristly petioles add texture below the leaf blades.
  • Leaf shape: Green leaves become more lobed as the plant matures.
  • Growth habit: Climbing stem with aerial-root development at the nodes.
  • Juvenile growth: Young leaves may be simpler before mature lobing becomes clearer.
  • Indoor outline: Upright growth leaves open space for lobed leaves around the climbing stem.
  • Origin: A botanical species recorded from the Guianas and northern Brazil in wet tropical conditions.

How Philodendron squamiferum develops on support

Philodendron squamiferum is a climbing species with red bristly petioles and leaves that become more divided as the plant matures. When aerial roots attach to a coarse surface, the stem can climb upward and leave more space for the lobed blades.

The red bristly petioles sit below the leaves along the upright stem. A vertical surface also keeps mature foliage from crowding the pot as the stem gains height.

Philodendron squamiferum care for climbing growth

  • Light level: Keep it in bright indirect light so developing leaves receive enough light with lower scorch risk.
  • Watering: Let the upper substrate partly dry between waterings, especially when room temperatures are lower.
  • Humidity: Moderate to high humidity helps new lobed leaves expand with fewer dry edges.
  • Temperature: Warm, stable conditions keep new roots and climbing nodes active.
  • Potting mix: Use a chunky mix to keep oxygen around the roots after watering.
  • Climbing support: A moss pole or coarse vertical surface lets aerial roots attach as the stem climbs.
  • Repotting: Repot when the root system fills the pot or the support can no longer hold the stem securely.
  • Fertilising: Feed lightly during active growth, especially when the plant is producing larger lobed leaves.
  • Pruning: Remove damaged foliage and guide side shoots back toward support before the stem becomes awkward to train.
  • Semi-hydroponics: Mineral culture can work if the roots are well aerated and the climbing stem remains stable above the pot.

Philodendron squamiferum leaf and root problems

  • Simple new leaves: Low light, weak attachment or juvenile growth can keep leaves less divided.
  • Brown tips: Check humidity and watering consistency before increasing water volume.
  • Root rot: Wet, compacted substrate can damage roots and yellow older leaves.
  • Aerial roots: Smooth supports may not give aerial roots enough grip as the stem gains weight.
  • Crowded foliage: Lobed leaves can mark or bend if the plant is pressed against shelves or neighbouring plants.
  • Pests: Inspect bristly petioles, leaf backs and new growth for mites, mealybugs and scale.

Philodendron squamiferum safety

Philodendron squamiferum contains irritating calcium oxalate crystals and should not be chewed or ingested.

Published description and name of Philodendron squamiferum

Philodendron squamiferum was described by Eduard Friedrich Poeppig and published in Nova Genera ac Species Plantarum in 1845. The species name squamiferum means scale-bearing, matching the bristly texture on the petioles.

With a stable support, Philodendron squamiferum can mature from simpler juvenile leaves into more lobed foliage on an upright stem.

Really nice for the price!
Size: XX-Large, Color: Brown, Size: XX-Large, Color: Brown
This jacket is a really nice find for the price, my bf is 6’4, 350 and the XXL fit really well. It was a little tight in the bicep but other than that it fit well in the chest and in the waist. It falls just below the belt. It was really nicely made and I ended up wearing it at the end of the night (due to not bringing my own jacket in December in the snow) and it kept me pretty warm and was really nice and cozy! So if you’re looking for a pea coat / trench coat that isn’t $500 then definitely buy this one!

Almost great! But falls a little short
Size: Large, Color: Wine Red
It’s a great looking pea coat, but the stuffing/insulating material appeared to be lacking. Granted price is nice so one can only expect so much. I was willing to overlook this and then I tried it on - the fit was great except for the sleeves. I wear 32-33 sleeves and these must be 35-36. They swallow up my hands. It’s bummer because the maroon/wine color is so nice. I’ll be returning unfortunately

Great quality :-)
Size: X-Large, Color: Black, Size: X-Large, Color: Black
So I purchased a Nother pea coat from a box store that didn’t quite fit right and was not very flattering, so I returned it. I’m 6 foot tall 210 pounds with very wide shoulders and long arms so I decided to get an extra large. It’s slightly loose around the waist section, but I think that’s supposed to be that way considering you may wanna wear layers underneath. I may possibly get it tailored a little bit tired her, but the chest and arms fit great and the length is perfect. Great quality for the price and definitely a nice piece to the collection!

Excellent quality - great buy! Looks sharp!
Size: Large, Color: Gray, Size: Large, Color: Gray
Great quality - this is a medium weight coat. Perfect as a car coat but too thin for cold winter days if you had to be outside for long periods of time. The fit is just perfect. Purchased a size large for a man 5’6 175 lbs with a small belly so peacoat double breasted look - looks great! Lining is standard and the grey color is very appealing. This is soft feeling coat made to look like wool without the heavy rougher wool feel. Only issue is that the coat comes packaged in a small bag and so when you open it the coat it totally wrinkled. You can knock out the wrinkles in the dryer with a wrinkle release dryer sheet or use a garment steamer but honestly the dryer trick is the key.
