Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’ 69686

Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’, still widely known in cultivation as Philodendron 69686, develops deeply three-lobed leaves with a long, narrow central lobe and slim side lobes spreading from the upper part of the blade.

This cultivated hybrid has unknown original provenance and was formally published under the cultivar name Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’; 69686 remains widely used as its collection and trade reference. Mature growth carries short internodes, long cataphylls, dark green petioles and semi-glossy divided blades. As the stem climbs, the leaves can gain size and show the narrow-lobed shape more clearly.

Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’ leaf shape and growth habit

  • Leaf shape: Deeply three-lobed blades with a long central lobe and narrow, spreading lateral lobes.
  • Growth habit: Scandent vine with short internodes and aerial roots along the climbing stem.
  • Name note: Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’ is the cultivar name; 69686 is the collection and trade reference.
  • Leaf texture: Mature blades are dark green, semi-glossy and firm-textured.

How Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’ leaves mature

Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’ was found in the Roberto Burle Marx collection and introduced into cultivation in the United States by Bette Waterbury.

A settled specimen can produce longer petioles, thicker stems and better-defined lobes than a juvenile plant. The narrow central lobe becomes the dominant part of the blade, while the side lobes sit at a wide angle near the base.

Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’ support and climbing care

  • Support: Add a moss pole, plank, or textured stake early so aerial roots can attach as the stem lengthens.
  • Light: Give bright filtered light. Direct sun can mark the leaf surface, while very dim placement slows leaf size development.
  • Watering: Water when roughly the upper 25–35% of the pot has dried. The roots need moisture with air around them, not a constantly wet pot.
  • Substrate: Use a chunky aroid mix with bark, perlite, coco chips, pumice, or similar mineral pieces so roots can breathe between waterings.
  • Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity helps new lobed leaves unfurl cleanly during active growth.
  • Temperature: Keep it warm, ideally around 18–28°C, and protect it from cold draughts and chilled windows.
  • Repotting: Move it up one pot size when roots fill the container or the plant dries too quickly after watering.
  • Fertilizing: Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced houseplant fertilizer, avoiding heavy doses on dry roots.
  • Propagation: Propagate from stem cuttings with at least one node; aerial-root sections usually establish fastest.
  • Pruning: Trim long or uneven stems above a node if you need to control height or encourage a cleaner climbing shape.
  • Semi-hydroponics: Suitable for mineral or semi-hydro setups if the cutting or rooted plant is transitioned gradually and the crown stays above the reservoir line.

Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’ leaf and root problems

  • Small new leaves: Usually linked to weak light, no climbing surface, or an underfed root system. Improve light and give the aerial roots something to attach to.
  • Yellow lower leaves: Check the root zone first. A dense or wet mix can hold too much water around the lower stem.
  • Damaged new growth: If leaves tear while opening, raise humidity slightly and keep the support lightly moist during active root attachment without keeping the pot constantly wet.
  • Stem lean: A larger plant can become top-heavy. Secure the stem loosely before it pulls away from its support.

Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’ contains irritating calcium oxalate crystals and should be kept away from pets. Wear gloves when cutting stems if your skin reacts easily to aroid sap.

Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’ etymology and cultivar history

The genus name Philodendron comes from Greek roots meaning “tree-loving”. Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’ was formally published as a cultivar name by T.B. Croat in Aroideana in 2022, honouring Bette Waterbury, the first President of the International Aroid Society.

Not Natural
I loved the application of this product, very smooth, no smell, no white patches and, supposedly, all natural. Then I looked at the inactive ingredients! EWG rates this product #3 for problematic ingredients. The most problematic is the OCTINOXATE, which they rate #6! I'm torn. I have not found another sunscreen with as good an application as this one but I don't want to put harmful things on my skin. I have decided to return it. Sigh! UPDATE: I just discovered that EWG rates highly the Coola PLANT BASED sunscreen (not this one). The reviews for that product, however, suggest it leaves a white paste, like most other sunscreens. I'm going Dr. Mercola's face stick. It got good reviews here.

Excellent sunscreen for daily sun protection...
This is a great sunscreen for the "light" days in the sun. I layer my skincare (serums, creams, then sunscreen) before I apply my makeup. Sunscreen is always the last step before I apply my makeup. Other brands have been known to "bead up" under my makeup through out the day, or have a white cast to them. This does not do that. It doesn't leave a white cast, or residue of any kind on my skin. It is lightweight to the point of being weightless right after application. It is incredibly moisturizing on my dry skin as well, which I LOVE! Love the ingredients too for everyday use! The only downside to this sunscreen is it isn't strong enough to protect my skin on days I am in the sun a lot and cannot reapply every hour, or so. I noticed a couple of stubborn brown spots pop up after a couple hours in direct sunlight. I didn't burn, but I did get a tan on my face I was hoping to avoid. All in all, This is my favorite sunscreen I use when I am running to-and-fro, but not the sunscreen I will use at the ball field, or a day at the beach.

A little pricey but worth it
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH. I have really sensitive skin and eczema, and am allergic to scented liquid soaps, detergents and creams. I got a sample of this in a subscription box, and fell in LOVE after I tested just a little on my hand at first. Now I've ordered multiple time, and even shipped some to my mom! It feels luxurious but also fresh and natural on your face, I put it on as a moisturizer, hit some concealer under my eyes, swipe some mascara on and am good to go - it feels like a whole skin-care routine in one go. The size is a little small for the price, but it's light, non-irritating, and refreshing. I think it's definitely worth it if you have sensitive skin and want sun protection without a load of chemicals on your face. I put a picture of what it looks like on my hand reflected in some light - it's slightly greasy at first, but it dries nice and soft afterwards, I still feel like my pores can breathe. I usually don't write product reviews, but after I ordered my 3rd batch I felt I should share. *One other thing to note - make sure you read the label if you want the specific scented one, I accidentally ordered the unscented one when I wanted the cucumber because the packaging looks the same and the label is in the scripty font and I missed it when I made a rushed order.

Great for sensitive skin
Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I usually have problems with fragrance in almost any face cream or sunscreen, and my skin reacts very easily, so I’m always careful with what I use. I tried the COOLA Organic Face Sunscreen SPF 50 Sunblock Lotion (Fragrance Free) and I’m honestly impressed. It feels very light on the skin, doesn’t irritate my face at all, and finally a sunscreen that doesn’t have that strong smell that usually bothers me. It absorbs well, works great under makeup, and gives good daily protection without feeling greasy. If you have sensitive skin or issues with fragrance like I do, this one is definitely worth trying.

Love this sunscreen
Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I would love to buy again, but I go through sunscreen, I have to find a little less expensive one. No burn, dewy not greasy look. Great for mature skin. No fragrance, works well, melts right in the skin. I do love this product and the spray too!
