Philodendron eximium

Philodendron eximium is an eastern Brazilian climbing Philodendron with glossy green foliage and a hemi-epiphytic growth habit. In a pot, it needs an airy mix that lets water drain through freely while keeping the roots evenly moist between waterings.

The plant grows as a hemi-epiphytic vine with large, ovate to broadly ovate leaves, a cordate base and a paler lower surface. Mature foliage can become substantial, so indoor plants benefit from a stable vertical support before the stem becomes heavy.

Glossy climbing leaves on Philodendron eximium

  • Origin: Native to eastern Brazil, including southeastern Brazil and a northern record in Pernambuco.
  • Growth habit: Hemi-epiphytic climbing vine that can be trained onto a pole or other vertical support.
  • Leaves: Large green blades that are ovate to broadly ovate, with a cordate base and paler underside.
  • Roots: Needs drainage, even moisture and air around the root zone.

Philodendron eximium from eastern Brazil

Philodendron eximium is native to eastern Brazil and grows primarily in the seasonally dry tropical biome. Its climbing habit and aerial roots suit a loose, aerated substrate in indoor cultivation.

A vertical support helps the stem climb instead of bending around the container. Aerial roots attach more readily to a textured surface as the plant gains height.

Root-zone care for Philodendron eximium

  • Light: Give bright filtered light; low light can lead to stretched stems and smaller leaves.
  • Watering: Let the upper 20–30% of the substrate dry before watering again, then drain thoroughly.
  • Substrate: Use bark, pumice or perlite, and a modest organic fraction so roots stay aerated.
  • Support: Add a pole before the stem becomes long enough to lean heavily.
  • Humidity: Moderate to good humidity supports larger leaves and smoother unfurling.
  • Temperature: Keep above 18°C and avoid cold, damp conditions around the root zone.
  • Feeding: Use a balanced fertiliser at low strength during active growth, not when the plant is resting.
  • Potting: Use a pot with drainage and repot when roots have filled the container or the support becomes unstable.
  • Propagation: Propagate from stem cuttings with at least one node; single leaves without a node will not produce a new plant.
  • Pruning: Cut above a node to shorten the vine or redirect growth; remove damaged leaves close to the stem.
  • Semi-hydroponics: Can adapt to mineral substrates such as pon, pumice, lava or LECA if transitioned carefully and kept aerated.
  • Growth rate: Usually moderate indoors, with stronger climbing growth in warm, bright conditions.

Philodendron eximium indoor leaf and root issues

  • Yellowing after watering: Check whether the pot drains quickly and whether the mix has compacted.
  • Thin, stretched stems: Increase filtered light and secure new growth to a support.
  • Dry brown edges: Review watering consistency and avoid placing the plant near hot, dry airflow.
  • Root slowdown: If the plant stalls in a large pot, downsize or improve aeration before feeding more.
  • Pests: Check leaf undersides, petioles and new growth for spider mites, thrips, mealybugs or scale.

Philodendron eximium pet safety

Philodendron eximium should be placed away from pets. The plant contains calcium oxalate crystals, and cut or damaged tissue may irritate skin or the mouth.

Philodendron eximium etymology and publication

The genus name Philodendron comes from Greek roots meaning tree-loving. Philodendron eximium was first published by Heinrich Wilhelm Schott in Oesterr. Bot. Wochenbl. 3: 378 in 1853. The epithet eximium is formed from Latin eximius, meaning distinguished or exceptional.

An essential book on U.S. race and capitalism!
Format: Paperback
One of the most important books on race and capitalism ever written. Such a nuanced study of the California penal system that includes the racist structure of the United States’ criminal justice system, but goes far beyond to analyze how capitalism and profit drive politicians, police, investors, landowners, and working class people—white and Black—to expand the prison system in an age of dropping crime rates. I teach it regularly to undergraduates and graduate students, and it drives fascinating discussions.

Format: Paperback
If anyone has mastered the political economy and geography of prisons in California, it is Ruth Wilson Gilmore in Golden Gulag. Gilmore does a great job of discussing and parceling out the very complex and complicated relationships that exist between capitalism as a system that produces our material world alongside economic crises, and the function of prisons to absorb, manage, relocate and "hide" those very crises in the era of neoliberalism. She also skillfully reminds us over and over that it is black and brown working-class poor communities that bear the brunt of this kind of system that also expresses it's power via white supremacy. I am finding this book very useful and chock-full of interesting information for my current research. People may find the book a difficult read because it loaded with information and technicalities they are unfamiliar with, but these are good reasons to struggle with a text and truly grasp the increasingly intricate processes that determine and guide the world we live in (and the places we may end up locked in!). As Marx said, there is no royal road to science and knowledge.

Format: Paperback
I'm still reading it but its a great book. It makes me think about how much money is invested in keeping poor and people of color populations in prison. The prison industrial complex is no joke. This book provides the studies, chart and details of what I always thought. There's plenty of money to be made keeping the 'right people in prison' and finding new victims such as immigrants and school kids.

This was a good expose on how our government secures monies without you being aware of it for use in their useless game of punishment and the ultimate ruination of the towns in which they place these freaking Hell-holes
