Philodendron hederaceum ‘Micans’, often called the Velvet Leaf Philodendron, is one of the most elegant and beloved tropical trailing plants, prized for its soft, iridescent foliage and forgiving nature. A member of the Araceae family and native to the tropical forests of Central and South America, this variety is a refined form of the classic Heartleaf Philodendron, featuring luxurious, velvety leaves that shimmer in shades of green, bronze, and deep burgundy.

The heart-shaped leaves have a delicate, suede-like texture that catches the light beautifully, giving the plant an almost luminous quality. As it grows, Philodendron Micans produces long, cascading vines, making it perfect for hanging planters, high shelves, or climbing up moss poles. Its rich, jewel-toned foliage and easy-care temperament make it a true statement piece in any indoor collection.


Philodendron hederaceum ‘Micans’ – Care Guide

Light

Thrives in bright, indirect light, which enhances its velvety texture and deep colouring. It will tolerate medium light but may lose some of its bronze tones. Avoid harsh direct sunlight, which can scorch the delicate leaves.

Watering

Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil feels dry. Keep the soil lightly moist, allowing excess water to drain freely. Reduce watering slightly in winter. Philodendron Micans is tolerant of occasional dryness but should never sit in soggy soil.

Temperature and Humidity

  • Temperature: Prefers warmth, 18–28°C. Avoid cold draughts and temperatures below 15°C.

  • Humidity: Moderate to high humidity (50–70%) is ideal. Mist occasionally or use a humidifier to maintain leaf softness and prevent crisping.

Soil and Potting

Use a chunky, free-draining aroid mix – peat-free compost blended with orchid bark, perlite, and coco coir. Repot every 1–2 years in spring to refresh the mix and give roots room to grow.

Feeding

Feed every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertiliser. Stop feeding in autumn and winter.

Pruning and Maintenance

Trim long vines to encourage bushier growth and remove any yellow or damaged leaves. Pruned cuttings root easily in water or soil, making propagation simple. Wipe leaves gently to remove dust and maintain their velvety appearance.

Growth and Maturity

A fast-growing, trailing or climbing vine that can reach 1–2 metres indoors. The more support and humidity it receives, the larger and lusher the foliage becomes.

Common Issues

  • Yellowing leaves: Overwatering or poor drainage.

  • Faded colour: Insufficient light.

  • Brown tips: Low humidity or inconsistent watering.

  • Pests: Occasionally spider mites or thrips.

Background and Benefits

The Philodendron Micans is a naturally occurring variety of Philodendron hederaceum, prized for its soft, velvet-textured leaves and easy adaptability. Its romantic appearance and forgiving care requirements make it a favourite among collectors and beginners alike. Like all Philodendrons, it helps purify the air, filtering toxins and improving indoor air quality while adding a luxurious touch of tropical greenery.

    Perfect first shark book for littles
    Format: Paperback
    The book is super easy to read to my 4 year old son! He’s been really into sharks so I wanted something that was overpowered by facts on each page. This one is perfect! Each page has a different shark and the page do not have lengthy text but enough to still be educational. Keeps his attention and he’s able to learn a little bit about each shark. Perfect first shark book!

    Surprisingly awesome
    Format: Paperback
    This book is awesome. I was pleasantly surprised at the detailed information inside considering its price. My kids are 2 and 5 and love looking at the pictures while I read the information to them. It’s not so overboard that my it’s over my 5 year old’s head but detailed enough to supply him with new knowledge. This is perfect to go along with our household shark obsession.
