Notes

'Birkin' philodendron (Philodendron 'Birkin') is a houseplant for containers, indoor spaces, and low maintenance gardens. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 10 and warmer, down to about 30°F (-1°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes part sun and average to moist, sandy or loamy soil. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. It stays evergreen and grows 24 to 36 inches tall and wide.

Pairs well with Polka dot begonia, Chinese money plant, and Norfolk island pine.
