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.

Fabulous, especially for sensitive skin and those with aversion to textures.
Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Spray
Keeps my skin from turning UGLIER. THIS actually WORKS. I do not wish to be any tanner than I come naturally, and this is the BEST sunscreen I've ever used. I do use a wipe to remove the overspray from my eye area. It does not irritate my incredibly sensitive skin, and sprays on easily..like a dream. No more sandy spf moments!..I can't stand that creamy+oily stuff all over my hands then throw in a little sand - now we have a sensory concern..NOT WITH THIS STUFF!! Highly recommend. Easy to use. KeyWest rays had nothing on this..we came back slightly tan, not burnt, and not a looking like a different ethicity. Reapply as recommend.

Best Sunscreen Ever
Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Spray, Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Spray
BEST. SUNSCREEN. EVER. Seriously. My skin is paper-white and I'm highly tattooed, so sun safety is very important to me. 100 SPF for total protection is unbeatable and I have yet to burn even a little. I'm also very texture-sensitive so I can't stand thick, gloopy, sticky lotions. This one actually sprays on clear, soaks in right away, is light, and even a little bit refreshing. The spray mechanism also makes it easier to get my back without help. There's no off-putting smell, no mess, no problems. I do reapply if I'm out for a while so I'll need to reorder soon, but I'm not mad about it at all. It's very affordable compared to the alternatives and entirely worth it.

Still fried.
Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Spray
Smells good and you don’t feel it after applying it. My son and I still got sun burnt which is normal for our fair skin. I’ve never blistered before and using this I did even reapplying half way through my time of being on the beach for an hour and most of that time under an umbrella.

My first choice for Spray SPF 100 rated products.
Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Spray
I really like this spray on SPF 100 product over other brands I have used. There is really no issues with application and no detectable odor or fragrance after it drys. I really can't find anything negative to note about this stuff & it seems to work well. For someone who needs the very best sunblock to use every day, this wins my First Place Award over all the other products I have used.
