Philodendron sp. 'Peltatum' – Silver-Veined Collector Aroid with Creeping Growth

Peltatum' Philodendron – Leaf Form, Silver Veining and Creeping Habit

Philodendron sp. 'Peltatum' is a striking, creeping aroid with heart-shaped leaves and bold silver veining. The foliage has a slightly quilted surface and develops a cool-toned sheen under bright light, giving it an almost metallic appearance. Often sold under the name Philodendron pastazanum 'Silver', this undescribed species shows key differences: thinner leaves, wider sinus, and colder-toned veining.

Each leaf unfurls with a soft, matte finish and grows increasingly wide over time, creeping laterally with thick, grounded stems. It's a must-have for collectors of rare Philodendron forms – especially those who love silver-toned foliage and ground-spreading species.

Key features and growth structure

  • Leaf shape: Cordate (heart-shaped) with a wide central sinus
  • Color: Cool green with pronounced silver-toned venation
  • Growth habit: Creeping; stems run horizontally along the substrate
  • Leaf size indoors: Mature leaves reach 30 – 50 cm in width
  • Surface: Lightly textured with subtle gloss and flattened margins

Botanical background and natural behavior

This plant is an undescribed Philodendron species, likely related to Philodendron pastazanum (described by K. Krause). It is often referred to in trade as 'Philodendron pastazanum silver' due to the leaf shape and creeping growth. Unlike upright Philodendrons, it sends runners horizontally and produces leaves spaced along a grounded stem. It thrives in warm, humid environments with ample substrate space.

Toxic to pets and humans if ingested – always place with care.

Philodendron sp. 'Peltatum' care guide

  • Light: Bright, indirect light enhances leaf size and silver tones
  • Watering: Keep evenly moist; allow top 2 – 3 cm of soil to dry before rewatering
  • Humidity: Prefers 60 – 80%; thrives in high humidity but adapts well
  • Temperature: Best kept between 18 – 28 °C
  • Soil: Rich, well-draining aroid mix with coco coir, bark, and perlite
  • Repotting: Every 1 – 2 years, or when runners reach container edge
  • Fertilising: Feed monthly with diluted balanced fertiliser
  • Propagation: Stem cuttings with nodes and visible roots – easy to root in moss
  • Hydroponics: Can adjust to semi-hydro with leca or pon if humidity stays high
  • Pruning: Trim runners to shape or reroot for bushier growth

Common problems and how to fix them

  • Drooping leaves: Often due to underwatering or cold stress – check root health
  • Yellowing margins: Result of overwatering or poor drainage
  • Leaf curl: Common in low humidity or compacted substrate
  • Pests (thrips, mealybugs): Wipe leaves often and treat early with neem or insecticidal soap
  • Root rot: Prevent by using airy mix and pots with excellent drainage

Helpful tips for best results

Grow this species in a wide pot or long box to give its runners space to spread. Use moss poles laid flat or coir slabs to encourage rooting along the stem. 'Peltatum' benefits from consistent warmth and gentle airflow – avoid soggy conditions. Silver patterning becomes more visible in cooler, filtered light and consistent humidity. Rotate gently to avoid lopsided growth.

Etymology and taxonomic note

Philodendron means “tree lover” in Greek, though this species grows as a terrestrial creeper. The name 'peltatum' refers to a shield-like leaf shape (from Latin pelta, shield), though it remains unofficial in taxonomy. Its similarities to Philodendron pastazanum place it near the same group, but differences in leaf texture, coloration, and vein pattern suggest it may represent a distinct, undescribed species.

Same probiotic strains, but a subtle formulation update
Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
I’ve used NatureWise Oral Health Probiotics (WiseBiotics) for a while and recently noticed a clear difference between the older and newer version — especially in taste and texture. After comparing the labels side-by-side, there has been a formulation change. The probiotic strains are still the same (including BLIS K12 and M18), but the newer version now lists Organic Inulin (90 mg) as an active ingredient instead of just a minor “other ingredient.” This seems to explain the changes I noticed: • The tablets feel more powdery/chalky • The taste is slightly different (a bit less crisp mint, slightly sweeter/fiber-like) • The dissolve/chew experience is not quite the same as before Inulin is a prebiotic fiber, so this change may actually help feed the probiotics — which is a positive. But it definitely changes the user experience. For me, it’s not necessarily a dealbreaker, but it’s noticeable enough that others should be aware, especially if you’re sensitive to texture or ingredients like inulin. Bottom line: Same probiotic strains, but a subtle formulation update that affects taste and texture. Still a good product — just not identical to the previous version. Hope this helps someone else who thought they were imagining things 🙂

These WORK!
Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
I purchased these two bottles ago for help with dealing with a bad case of oral thrush caused by a couple rounds of powerful antibiotics and fluconazole (rebound?) for a bad UTI and resulting yeast infection. Oil pulling, mouthwashes, salt water rinses all helped, but this put me over the top. I also take a candida killing herbal supplement as well as a variety of probiotics. I appreciate the mint is very mild (these are NOT breath mints which only mask the problem) and dissolve them slowly in my mouth at bedtime along with another during the day. I am also sure to not put anything else in my mouth for a good long time after so the pb’s can do their magic. i believe the thrush is mostly gone, but I still have some residual tingling and burning from time to time. These, along with good oral cleansing practices, help tremendously. I now order them regularly. They also make your breath fresh, naturally. Great product. Highly recommend!

Taste
Size: 30 Count (Pack of 1)
I ordered this a week ago, and it seems to taste like smoke or an ashtray. It was not a pleasant taste at all, I expected it to be great with all the other good reviews. Unfortunately that was not the case for me.

effective for dry mouth during sleep
Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I tried this in lieu of my usual Biotene. It works just as well and you can't beat the price savings. I mouth breathe during sleep and this helps keep my mouth moist. Only thing I wish the cap were not a safety cap as I find it a bit difficult to open, so I transfer the contents to an old Biotene bottle. Yet I certainly understand the purpose of a safety cap. On my 2nd bottle of this now and if the price stays competitive this is my go-to rinse.
