About Philodendron Birkin (Large)

Part of the Philodendron genus, Philodendron Birkin presents gorgeous deep green and cream foliage. Philodendron Birkin is one of the recent additions to the Philodendrons and a slightly rare one to find. It is named after the 'Birkin' line of designer bags, one of the most expensive ones in the world. Philodendron Birkin does not grow in the wild and was a result of a mutation of another Philodendron by the name of Rojo Congo. They are now produced via tissue culture. Philodendrons similar to Birkin exist in South America in tropical forests and swamps. In Greek, Phileo means 'to love' and dendron means tree, and probably named so as in their natural habitats they are epiphytes growing on trees. The large dark green leaves with pointed tips have cream-variegated stripes. Each leaf is different from the others and adds a great appeal to the plant's look. Philodendron Birkin thrives well indoors but could do well in shaded outdoors too as long as it does not get exposed to direct sunlight and is protected from extreme temperatures. Philodendron Birkin is quite easy to care for and adds a unique elegant dimension to your space.

How to Care for Philodendron Birkin


The Philodendron Birkin plant is low-maintenance but needs some care. Learn the care guidelines to maintain the healthy growth of Philodendron Birkin.

  • Sunlight Requirements of Philodendron Birkin: The ‘Philodendron Birkin’, like most Philodendrons, needs bright, indirect light, particularly near a west or east window, to preserve its cream and yellow pinstripes. Too much sun scorches the leaves, while too little makes the plant lanky and droopy. Also, 'Philodendron Birkin's plants should be rotated 180 degrees regularly to ensure balanced growth because they stretch or bend towards the sunlight.

  • Watering Requirements of Philodendron Birkin: Like other philodendrons, the Philodendron Birkin must dry out in between waterings. Water well, allowing water to drain out through the bottom holes in the pot, once the top 2-3 inches of soil are completely dry. Don't overwater philodendrons, which can cause root rot.

  • How often should fertiliser be used for Philodendron Birkin: During spring and summer, your Philodendron Birkin will benefit from monthly fertiliser. Apply liquid or granular houseplant fertiliser. Avoid fertilisation in the winter, as growth is slower.

  • Is pruning needed for Philodendron Birkin: Philodendron Birkin is a slow-growing plant that needs little pruning. Simply remove damaged or old leaves for optimal, healthy foliage.

  • Soil Requirements of Philodendron Birkin: As aroids, philodendrons such as 'Philodendron Birkin' benefit from an airy soil type that holds some water but allows excess to drain away without causing root rot.

  • Temperature Requirements of Philodendron Birkin: The Philodendron Birkin best thrives in temperatures ranging from 65°F to 90°F (18°C to 32°C). Furthermore, it should not be exposed to temperature swings or chilly drafts.

  • Humidity Requirements of Philodendron Birkin: Native to tropical rainforests, philodendrons prefer humidity. If you notice that the plant's leaves are becoming crispy or brown, you can either mist water them gently (approximately twice weekly) or install a humidifier to increase the humidity in the surrounding space.

  • Pest Control for Philodendron Birkin: Despite its resilience, spider mites are the biggest pest threat to Philodendron Birkin. Regular plant inspections are required, especially in warm months when these pests are more active.

  • Philodendron Birkin Pet Safety Guide: Like Philodendron plants, the Philodendron Birkin plant, which is classified as an araceae family member, is unsafe for pets due to the presence of calcium oxalate in all its parts.
