Philodendron mexicanum

Philodendron mexicanum is a wet-tropical climbing species with glossy, arrow-shaped green leaves and red undersides that are especially visible on juvenile growth. As the plant matures, the blades become larger and more defined, with the climbing stem producing aerial roots at the nodes.

Younger leaves show the red-backed colour most clearly, while older foliage develops the broader sagittate outline typical of the species.

  • Leaf shape: Arrow-shaped to hastate blades with a broad base and pointed tip.
  • Leaf colour: Glossy green upper surfaces with red undersides most noticeable on younger leaves.
  • Growth habit: A climbing Philodendron with aerial roots along the stem.
  • Native range: Recorded from Mexico to western Colombia in wet tropical forest conditions.

Philodendron mexicanum care for climbing growth

Give Philodendron mexicanum a moss pole, plank or other vertical support so the stem can attach as it lengthens. Bright indirect light keeps the growth compact and reduces stretched internodes, while harsh direct sun can mark the leaves, especially on softer new growth.

  • Support: A vertical surface gives aerial roots somewhere to attach as the plant produces larger, more defined blades on upright growth.
  • Light: Bright indirect light, with protection from strong direct sun.
  • Water: Water when the upper part of the substrate has dried, then let excess water drain fully.
  • Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity helps new leaves open cleanly, especially during active growth.
  • Substrate: Use a chunky aroid mix with bark, coarse fibre and mineral components so air reaches the roots.
  • Temperature: Keep warm and stable, away from cold windows and cold wet substrate.

Philodendron mexicanum leaf size, roots and pests

  • Small leaves or long gaps between nodes: Usually linked to weak light, missing support or both.
  • Yellowing lower leaves: Check for dense, wet substrate around the roots.
  • Dry new leaves: Increase humidity around active growth and keep watering consistent without leaving the pot waterlogged.
  • Pests: Inspect new leaves, petioles and undersides for thrips, spider mites, mealybugs and scale.

Philodendron mexicanum safety, name and publication

Keep Philodendron mexicanum away from pets and children, as the plant contains calcium oxalate crystals. Sap may irritate sensitive skin.

Heinrich Wilhelm Schott published the genus Philodendron in Wiener Zeitschrift für Kunst 3: 780 in 1829. The genus name comes from Greek-derived roots meaning “tree-loving.” Philodendron mexicanum was described by Adolf Engler in Flora Brasiliensis 3(2): 143 in 1878. The species epithet mexicanum means “Mexican” or “from Mexico.”

The texture is rich but still absorbs nicely into the skin, and a little goes a long way. I NIVEAs
Size: 13.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
deep hydration and works especially well for very dry skin. The formula feels rich and nourishing but still absorbs nicely without feeling greasy. After applying it, my skin feels soft, smooth, and comfortable for hours. I also love that it contains ingredients like glycerin, Pro-vitamin B5, and niacinamide to help repair and protect dry skin.

Works great

Finally found a lotion cream that worked for my diabetic skin!! It’s not greasy and last a long time. I use it all over and made such a big difference.

Great Daily moisturizer
Size: 13.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Very light and neutral smell ( although I can understand that the scent may not be to everyone’s liking). The new formula with niacinamide adds a great benefit for your skin. Leaves the skin moisturized. Compared to CeraVe and Cetaphil intense moisturizers, those are much more heavy and longer lasting but overall I really like this product and will continue to use it as part of my daily moisturizer. I do wish NIVEA was more environmentally conscious.

The best!!
Size: 13.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Love this Nivea. And love that it’s in a tub and not a pump bottle so I can scoop out exactly how much I need and get every bit out at the end of every tub. I use this every day as soon as I get out of the shower. I lotion my entire body. It has made my skin baby soft smooth. It has also really helped with dry skin I had on my feet as well. Love it. I use my retinol and other skincare products on my face and neck and then I lotion my entire body right up to my chin. I don’t really use this on my face because I have other products for that but you could. It’s not greasy and absorbs well. Locks in moisture. And you get quite a bit for the money. I do wish Nivea’s skin firming lotion came in a tub like this too.
