You took my anxiety away! Just bought one, and was getting worried that this is a finikey plant that require extreme humidity. I thought I would have to keep it in a clear trash bag it’s entire life! But after watching this video, I feel better that I can treat it like my other philodendrons!

Aren't plant people the best! So calming, happy and interesting. I love seeing the enthusiasm and passion.

Thanks Doc! Definitely on my Wishlist for a while now. I love your content needed the info!

we need to see more of your collection :) fantastic plants!

Thank you for this video, especially the mention about shipping! Great info to know for those of us buying plants online primarily.

I just got my first philodendron verrucosum cutting and rooting it in moss. Your plant is so vibrant, thanks for sharing information on its growth requirements.

You’re funny! I ordered one off ecuagenera and it was so dried up and dead was terrible lol.. the face you made during shipping was spot on 😂💀

Verrucosum is so pretty and this video is very helpful because I just got one too 😍 Thanks for sharing your plant care tips

Just got one of these, it's amazing in person!!! Videos and photos do not do it justice. If you're thinking about buying one then you should do it now! Thanks for the video Jimmy!

Thank you for this! I bit the bullet and finally ordered one. They look so intimidating because of how good they look! But this is super helpful! Hopefully it survives shipping.

It’s a beautiful plant, been wanting one for a good long while now. Loving the footage of other ppls plants.💚 😃 So jealous of yours Jimmy 😍 lol

I probably tell myself I don’t like them to convince myself not to buy any since I don’t have room. I mush prefer the glossier leaved climbing philodendrons that I’ve been collecting. It’s nice to see your beauty actually growing in a regular pot out in the open. I’m so used to seeing all these must-have fuzzy leaved creeping philodendrons (Verrocosum, Gloriosum, Melanochrysum, Gigas, etc & most anthuriums) as sad cuttings or stumps with 2 leaves full of brown holes that have to be nursed back to health in a plastic Tupperware full of sphagnum moss with a humidifier under grow lights in a clear plastic tarp or “greenhouse”...not exactly the showpieces that they are growing on a wall in an outdoor grow house.

I got one about a month ago and I'm obsessed! 🌿 He did get a bit of damage in shipping but the new growth is so stunning 😍

I’ve had really good luck with putting cotton batting all around the leaf and stem and then placing it in a ziplock or sealed plastic bag. It provides humidity and cuddly transport. 😁. Of course, if it’s a cutting I wrap the bottom with sphagnum moss and cling wrap. This also provides a little moisture. Awesome video as always Jimmy!

Oh I haven’t tried that method. I usually just do moss like most others, but I don’t really ship much anymore. It seems that the packaging game in the community has improved a ton overall, which is great for buyers and sellers.

Got a cutting around Christmastime and it is doing great! Can't wait til it gets big enough to propagate.

Hahaha your shipping comment about them dying cracks me up lolol thank you for this video! I just purchased one online. Super excited and nervous! :)

Thanks for this great video. I bought my verrucosum today 😍 soo beautiful.

I got two of these plants this month. Two different forms. One definitely shipped better than the other but I love them. I can’t wait til they take off.

🤩Gorgeous plant

great video!!! hope i can get my hands on one soon.

Wow! I'll wait till it's available in my country!

Beautiful plant. Leaves are a lot smaller than I thought they would be.

Loking so beautiful, 👌👌love from 🇮🇳India

Thank you for this fantastic video! 🌟 I’m glad to know that my plant should acclimate. I recently bought a verrucosum on sale. It has a decent amount of foliage, however it has been allowed to grow trailing downwards. I really want to stake it so that the leaves can get bigger, but the plant is so wiggly that it looks a bit difficult to manoeuvre without damage. Not sure whether to leave it or propagate part of it 🤔

Love the oat milk behind you 😍

What i love about them is the hairy stems. I just bought one from Ecuagenera and am anxiously waiting for it. I am of course expecting it to be in rough condition. I ordered the Verracasum 5.

I have a baby baby I recently got it I think they may have propagated it from a new growth stem because the roots are like shoestrings and they are being sold as rescue I hope it survives.

Love your stuff! Any chance a plant tour is in the books?

Thank you for the great video. To the shipping-problems: I recently bought one online and it arrived in perfect condition, maybe I was just lucky🙃

I just ordered my first Philodendron Verrucosum (Rojo Form). I hope the shipping will go well.

Nice

some said...diva plant...but you make want to own one

Thank you so much for saying they are bad shippers, i was wondering what i did wrong with my verrocosum cutting as the leaf was dying as soon as i got it :( I know it will recover though, thank you for all your videos

I think the leaves are gorgeous red or no! And you gotta love that slight fuzz

Its interesting to find out that these ship bad! i had mine shipped in last month, and i think it might be one of the healthiest plants I've ever got in the mail. its already given me 4 new leaves! maybe i just got lucky?

Jody S that is great to hear! I’m attempting to find one in my price range right now, and I’m hoping it will ship well when I do find it!

Gorgeous specimen! May I ask how long you have gad her?

Aww 1st! 😃

I have one and it’s lovely! Does yours get little gooey specs on the backs on the leaves? I don’t see any pests. Trying not to freak out! Lol

Mine is drooping when i repotted, what to do to make it bounce back?

Mine is dying 😭. I got it 7 months ago and it was doing great, it was growing really fast getting taller and taller. So I got it a mosspole, but had to put it in a larger pot otherwise with the heavy moss pole it would tip over. So what I think happened is that the pot was too large for the small amount of roots it had, and the soil took too long to dry, even though I've got a good well draining aroid mix. So it's leaves started yellowing rapidly. So I repotted it and put it in a smaller pot according to it's roots. I couldn't see any root rot though. But now it's still continuing to deteriorate. It's loosing one more leaf and it already only had three left. And the other two leaves look weak and limpy. What am I doing wrong? It's in a spot where it gets some morning light.

I just buy verrocosum because of you😂 nice big one so i hope you have right and it's easy. If not I find you 😱 😉😉

how do you clean velvety leaves?

I dont understand nothing… kayle ellen say this is not a easy plant at all and need at least 60% humidity🙄🙄

Omg. Thank you for explaining this. I’ve been looking for a high contrast one but when I would look up the type, some of it doesn’t look contrasty. It’s been driving me insane! I can finally stop searching for a high contrast one.

Most welcome Helen. This was a big confusion for lots of people when I released the video. I wish they stayed high contrast as well =(

I 💘 this plant, unfortunately it's the price fit me. But it's on my wishlist 🤞🏿 Edit: brought a rooted cutting today🤗

Hello. I have got a question. I have a philodendron verrucosum. It has 4 leaves. Recently I cut a mother leaf (because of yellowing) which originally was trimmed in half. After I cut the leaf, any new leaves come up - it grows second new node without a leaf :-(. Can anybody help?

This philodendron is very picky in my experience lol. If you are in sub tropical it’s easy for you but not in colder and dryer zones.

Did you make or buy that mosspole?

They are easy but they don’t like change ..they bounce back really fast.

Agreed. They definitely don’t like change.

How much

Mine is getting very big, but won’t develop aerial roots, don’t know why. I do give it a moss pole to climb..

@LegendsOfMonstera

Mine doesn’t either. I suspect it’s due to my relatively lower humidity around 40%. Maybe it needs much more for the aerial roots 🤷🏻‍♂️

Verrucosum and Choco Red. Both the same.
