Just picked one of these guys up around the time you put this video up. I can't wait until it's a big mature plant. I got a Xanadu also, around 2 weeks ago.
Great minds! Killer plant too lol! I miss the big one I used to have. I can't wait until this one gets that big! It's gonna look great. I need a plant club! I may just start a discord.
I've had one of these for a while never new it was toxic but I had one in Australia growing at a base of a tree and it flowered and it looked like a big corn comb 🌽 it was also huge and the tenticals can grow on and up the tree.
Even if I didn't you would have informed me in the last comment. Thankfully I already knew though lol. I love this guy, his uniquely beautiful foliage is fabulous!! With me being such a size queen I know he won't disappoint!
A grandma gave me one of these as a child. It grew to about 7 feet, and was just a monster. Lovely plant. Good to know the new classifications, they change too often, I wish they publicly announced those better. Never knew they loved humidity that much either, I lived in Utah when I grew mine, and it thrived because I dumped water on her all the time. She did drink like a fish. Great video, thanks for the information!
Yes, typically I say that more towards the end of the video but I know most people don't watch but 5 minutes of any given video. A lot of good that does lol. 🌺
Yes! I have three cats, one cockatiel, and a dog! So I'm constantly looking for safety plants for pets and people! Let me know if you ever have a plant you aren't sure about! I know google may be faster but I may be able to provide a little bit more insight if needed! 🌲
@@TheGreenAlchemist thank you. I really appreciate it. Now I look up all the plants when I’m at the nursery and more than once stopped me from buying plants that would have would be toxic to my cats. But sometimes Google can’t provide me an answer so thank you
Can I just say I was watching your video to try to learn how to pronounce this name of plant and I am struggling lol 😂 I feel like I am learning a new language
I got a Philodendron Shangri-La as a smaller, compact version, but it is not doing well for me. The stems are elongated so that the large leaves droop. Leaves are turning yellow, also.
Great tips.Mines is starting to have brown on the tips and the new growth is starting to develop it.What do you think it is.When I had her outside doing the summer she had no issue. Thanks you
I have one but it's just one long stem with leaves separated about 6-8 inches apart. It's getting too tall so I'd like to cut and propagate it. Can I do it the same way as I would a pothos with a node, a leaf and some roots? If I cut it will it encourage side shoots? I can't find any of this information and mine doesn't seem to look like anyone else's. 😂
Thank you for a great a video. My problem: Since early fall the leaves on my Philo have been turning yellow and dying off. I changed the soil to be more draining, and watered less. But its dyng off?! Help!
How big is he? You may need support rods until his softwood is strong enough. Norfolk's wood has never really been used for shipbuilding or furniture crafting. It's among the softest/most flexible out there. How much light does he receive? The more light the stronger he'll be. I moved both of mine outside for the summer and they're both loving the 6+ hours of light they get.
@@DG-iw3yw Latin was chosen as the language for scientific nomenclature precisely because the pronunciation can be harmonized. This doesn't mean that it is the same pronunciation as in the Roman Empire but there is a standard way to pronounce Latin. How do you pronounce words in any other language? Do you always pronounce words as if they were written in English? Spaghetti, patio, etc.? You should realize that the pronunciation is not trivial precisely in this case because people might think that the plant this guy is showing belongs to the same family as the tomato plant LOL

I'm impressed on so many levels, I'll just say: Thank you.
What a timely video. I was just explaining the reclassification of this species to my plant club.

I got mine 2 days ago. its beautiful.
Thanks for the info! 👍

Yay I'm glad you did this one!! And also really glad you know it's proper name! lol thank you

@@TheGreenAlchemist oh yeah, very true! Yes, I love them! Very underrated, and definitely as big as we both need it to be ;)

Yes another great video. Thank you 🙏
I'm glad you liked it! I love this plant and I'm surprised I hadn't done it sooner! I can't wait till he gets bigger! I'm a size queen!
@@TheGreenAlchemist LOL. You and me both 👍🏻
This guy’s is great!
😊thank you for the info.!
Thank you for watching! 🌺
Thank you for the info. Mine has developed two aerial roots... could you give me some tips about what to do with them? Thks!!
My name is Patrick I love your video so much about that plant how to take care of it to feed
Question 🤔 Xandu, Hope and Shangri La are all different ? Great video btw.

Beard is looking great btw!
Thanks, not nearly as good as your stache though!
@@TheGreenAlchemist ha! Thankyou

Is it sitting in water?
what would you reccamend for indoor potting soil
How often do they grow leaves, I got one from Lowe's, but I don't see any new growth.
Can i have this plant in my room, beside my bed? I mean is there any particular warning?

This is normal for this plant. Just growing and getting rid of them
Mine gets one leaf at a time filled with water and turns super soggy and I cut it off at the base. Then it happens again one leaf at a time. Help!!??
How do I get mine to grow up instead of laying out across the floor

Can these grow in water alone (outside of propagation)?
Yes!
I bought one of these and it was labeled as a hope/tree philodendron.
Yes, as they age they'll start to develop a woody center stem that gives them this common name. It resembles an octopus tentacle turned over, I think.
Where’s the cockatiel? 🤔🤔🤔
How do you keep them from drooping and falling over ?
I was wondering the same thing.
i m here just to here how to say that word. Thanks:)
LOL It's not pronounced "tomahto-phyllum". It's tah-OOH-mah-toh-phee-loom.
