Philodendron 'Birkin' ('White Measure')

Philodendron 'Birkin' is a compact, self-heading Philodendron with dark green leaves and fine pale striping. Its pinstripe pattern and upright growth give it a tidy profile in indoor pots, while the short stems keep the plant denser than many climbing Philodendron.

The plant grows from short, upright stems with thick petioles. New leaves can open with softer striping and deepen in contrast as they mature, while each leaf carries its own pattern.

Birkin traits and growth habit

  • Growth habit: Compact, self-heading Philodendron with upright stems and short internodes.
  • Leaf pattern: Dark green leaves carry fine white, cream, yellowish, or light green pinstripes.
  • Leaf variation: Every leaf develops its own stripe density, so the plant changes gradually as it grows.
  • Indoor size: Usually remains compact in pots, with slower, tighter growth when root space is limited.
  • Flowering: Mature plants can produce a spathe and spadix inflorescence indoors, but flowering is uncommon in typical home conditions.

Compact stems and striped leaves

Philodendron 'Birkin' develops as a dense, upright plant. The stems remain short, and the petioles hold leaves outward from the centre, so the pinstriped blades sit clearly around the crown as the plant fills out.

The pale striping sits within the leaf tissue and varies naturally. Some leaves may be strongly striped, while others may be greener or more lightly marked.

Growing Philodendron 'Birkin' indoors

  • Light: Place in bright filtered light. Strong direct sun can scorch the leaves, especially where the pale striping is broad.
  • Watering: Water when the upper part of the substrate has dried. Keep moisture even, then let excess water drain completely.
  • Substrate: Use a loose aroid mix with bark, coco coir or chips, perlite, pumice, and a small moisture-retentive fraction.
  • Drainage: Keep the plant in a pot with drainage holes and avoid dense, collapsed substrate around the central stem and lower roots.
  • Humidity: Around 50–60% or higher supports smooth leaf expansion and reduces dry tips on new growth.
  • Temperature: Keep between 18–28°C. Avoid cold draughts and cold wet substrate, which can slow the central growing point.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced houseplant fertiliser. Reduce feeding when new leaves slow down.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots fill the pot or watering becomes difficult to balance. Move up gradually to avoid excess wet substrate.
  • Pruning: Remove yellow, damaged, or weak leaves close to the stem with clean tools.
  • Semi-hydroponics: Can adapt to airy mineral substrates if roots are cleaned carefully and the central stem stays above the wet zone.
  • Propagation: Use a cutting or division with a viable node and growth point. A single detached leaf cannot become a new plant.

Common issues with Philodendron 'Birkin'

  • Yellowing leaves: Check whether the mix is staying wet for too long. Improve drainage and let the upper substrate dry further before watering again.
  • Brown tips: Often linked to dry air, irregular moisture, fertiliser buildup, or stressed roots. Flush the substrate and stabilise watering.
  • Small new leaves: Check light, root space, and feeding. A compact plant can still slow down when the root ball is depleted.
  • Weak central growth: Inspect the crown and upper roots for rot if new leaves emerge soft, distorted, or unusually pale.
  • Greener new growth: Some leaves may emerge with weaker striping or more green tissue. Remove fully reverted growth back to a healthy patterned point if plain green leaves continue.
  • Pest damage: Thrips, mites, scale, and mealybugs can hide around petioles and new leaves. Check closely if striping becomes scarred or growth twists.

Managing mature growth

Philodendron 'Birkin' keeps a more even shape when the pot is turned occasionally and the plant is not pushed into an oversized container. Older leaves can be removed once they yellow naturally, while healthy leaves are best left in place unless the plant needs reshaping.

If the plant becomes uneven, refresh the shape by removing weak or damaged growth. Stronger correction is best done during active growth, when the plant has enough light and warmth to produce new leaves from the central growing point.

Safety around pets and children

Keep Philodendron 'Birkin' away from pets and children. Like other Philodendron, it contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals that can irritate the mouth, throat, digestive tract, and sensitive skin. Wear gloves if you react to aroid sap, and wash hands after pruning.

Philodendron genus and Birkin names

Philodendron belongs to the Araceae family. The genus name is commonly translated from Greek roots as “tree-loving”, reflecting the tree-associated growth seen in many Philodendron. The names 'White Wave' and 'White Measure' are also used for this compact pinstriped cultivated Philodendron.

Philodendron 'Birkin' stays compact and upright, with pale striping that shifts naturally from leaf to leaf as the plant matures.

Felt commercial vs natural
Scent: Tea Tree
I got the tea tree soap and the first thing I noticed was it has a strong perfume smell that I don’t believe to be natural because I’ve had other kinds of tea tree soap bars and I prefer the other bars over these because I could actually smell the tea tree sent with the other bars and it was a nice mild scent in comparison to these that have a strong perfume scent. This soap didn’t bother my skin but it was not as effective as my other tea tree soap purchases I made prior to trying these. It came with a soap sack to help build up a soap lather but it was so cheaply made it felt apart after the second use. This soap appeared commercial in my opinion and it was made in china and I didn’t notice this prior to making my purchase. I would have avoided making this purchase knowing what I know now including my personal experience using this product.

Gentle but Effective Cleaner
Scent: Tea Tree
This tea tree oil soap does an excellent job of cleaning without being harsh on the skin. It removes dirt and oil effectively, yet my skin never feels dry or tight after use. The lather is rich and smooth, and the light tea tree scent feels fresh and refreshing. Thanks to the shea butter, my skin feels soft and moisturized, making it great for daily use on face, body, and hands. A solid choice if you want a natural soap that’s both gentle and effective.

Don't Be Fooled By The Title On The Box🩷
Scent: Citrus
Let me simply say that I KNOW this soap is the "real deal". I am not one to give an average product an excellent rating. When I spend my money on a product, I write about the positive (if any) as well as the negative. Since being sick from 2015 to 2019, my skin tone changed from a medium "sienna" to having an unnatural ashy cast that that makes me always look ill although I am well ,now. When I looked at myself in the mirror in natural light, that "ashy cast" to my complexion didn't look healthy or attractive. I had come to accept that this would probably be an issue the rest of my life. I am a lady that never used foundation makeup but, decided to try it as a last resort. Using foundation makeup only made me look worse. I accidently came across this item while searching for another type of soap. When it arrived and I saw "Men's Soap Set" on the box 👀😩, I was devasted. I had ordered something that I never intended to order. I was about to return the item when I heard a clear message in my mind directing me to try the soap. Several months ago, I prayed and asked Our Creator and Lord to make my complexion healthy in appearance. That prayer came back to mind and I tried the soap without any further hesitation. I wasn't expecting anything but, to my surprise the soap immediately started removing that "ashy cast" from my face. Let me make it crystal clear that I had tried dozens of other soaps and products that did absolutely nothing to help. I have only used this soap once. As I write this review it is almost 7:00pm ET and I haven't turned the lights on inside of the house yet. I glanced at myself in the mirror and I can see myself and that healthy tone coming back. My prayer has been answered and I'm beginning to look healthy again! As for this soap, I couldn't ask for a better value for the money. This soap is of amazing quality. I will continue to use it. Don't be fooled by what's written on the box. This soap is for ladies as well. I can only speak about my personal experience but, it's a superior product in my opinion and definitely worth a try for anyone that has had an unnatural change in complexion. I give it five SUPER SIZED stars!!! 🩷🩷🩷

You'll be disappointed if you want pine scented soap.
Scent: Cedar
Has a mild scent, and not very pine like. I was disappointed. Grandpa's is still the best. I'm going to melt down the remaining three bars of this soap and add my own pine oil. The soap quality is good; long lasting bars that lather well.
