Fuzzy Petiole Philodendron (Philodendron nangaritense 'Fuzzy Petiole')
Fuzzy Petiole Philodendron is a collector-style philodendron that combines a bold tropical look with a soft, touchable detail that makes it feel truly unique. Its lush, heart-shaped leaves bring instant greenery to indoor spaces, while the fuzzy leaf stems add extra character up close. With bright, indirect light and a simple watering routine, it grows steadily and stays full without being overly demanding. If you want a standout philodendron that feels both dramatic and personable, this one delivers.
Distinctive Features
This philodendron is prized for its velvety to softly textured petioles that give the plant its fuzzy nickname, paired with broad, rich green leaves that create a full tropical presence. The foliage is typically heart-shaped with a slightly thick feel, and new growth can look especially fresh and vibrant. It is generally a climbing to scrambling aroid, so providing a support can help it develop a more upright, showcased form as it matures. The combination of bold leaf shape and fuzzy stems makes it a conversation piece in any indoor plant collection.
Growing Conditions
- Sun: Bright, indirect light is ideal, and it tolerates medium light with slower growth.
- Soil: Airy, well-drained aroid mix that holds some moisture but never stays soggy.
- Water: Water when the top 1 to 2 inches of soil dry, and do not let the pot sit in water.
- Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity supports best growth and leaf condition, with average home humidity acceptable.
- Growth Habit: Climbing to scrambling growth that benefits from a moss pole or stake for a fuller display.
Ideal Uses
- Focal Point: Train on a moss pole so the bold leaves and fuzzy stems can be showcased as a statement plant.
- Plant Stands: Place on a stand where the fuzzy petioles can be appreciated up close.
- Bright Room Corner: Add to a bright corner to bring a lush tropical feel with a unique twist.
- Collector Displays: Pair with other aroids to build a curated indoor collection with varied textures.
Low Maintenance Care
- Watering: Keep evenly moist but not wet, allowing a partial dry-down between waterings.
- Support: Provide a moss pole or stake and secure stems to guide growth upward and keep the plant tidy.
- Feeding: Feed monthly in spring and summer with a balanced houseplant fertilizer at a moderate strength.
- Leaf Care: Dust gently and avoid harsh wiping that can damage delicate textures on stems and leaves.
Why Choose Fuzzy Petiole Philodendron?
- Unique Fuzzy Stems: Soft petioles add rare texture and a collectible detail.
- Bold Tropical Leaves: Broad foliage creates a lush, full look indoors.
- Great on a Pole: Support training helps it look more upright and showcased as it matures.
- Approachable Care: Thrives with bright, indirect light and a steady watering routine.
Fuzzy Petiole Philodendron is a great choice when you want a plant that feels special every time you look at it up close. Give it bright, indirect light, an airy mix, and consistent watering after partial dry-down, and it will grow steadily and stay attractive. With a support to climb and a little extra humidity, it can become a lasting focal plant with a truly memorable texture.

"Lozenges" are the new "Sublingual Tablets"
Size: 200 Count (Pack of 1)
This is going to be more a public service than a true review (read before complaining).... I just bought three bottles of these "orange sublingual tablets." I always check the mfr's. label to make sure that they are, indeed, sublingual tablets before opening them, in case I need to return a "wrong item." All three bottles stated "orange flavored lozenge" on the front of the label. The seller had stuck two (2) paper labels on the back, one (both?) of which stating "sublingual," but I'm thinking that there's something deceiving, possibly fraudulent, going on here. I tried to lift a label on one bottle, as someone before me tried to do (who apparently returned it). No luck; didn't want to destroy something that at that point I was going to return. I searched several places on the Internet for Source Naturals Melatonin Lozenges -- couldn't find that anywhere, even on Source Natural's web site. I took advantage of their "Contact (us)" link and briefly told them what I found. This was their reply, in its entirety:
"Source Naturals appreciates your time and interest. Our “Melatonin Sublingual” products are intended as dietary supplements and are regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Recently, FDA stated to us its position that only drug products could use the term “sublingual” on product labels. As such, to make clear that our products are dietary supplements and not drugs, we are updating our product labeling to “Melatonin Lozenges” with instructions for each unit to be dissolved slowly in the mouth prior to swallowing. However, there has been no change in the formulation or effectiveness of our Melatonin products. If you have any questions concerning your use of a particular dietary supplement, please consult your qualified health care professional. Please keep in mind that Source Naturals provides a 100% satisfaction guarantee. If you try any Source Naturals product and are unsatisfied for any reason, you may take the product back to the retailer originally purchased for a refund, exchange, or credit."
So, there you go. Same product, different description, thanks to the FDA, who after 10+ years of "evaluating" a popular European sunscreen which is far more protective than what's available in the USA, finds time, instead, to screw around with this minor confusing, non-descriptive stuff that is essentially of no help to the public. It seems obvious to me that all sellers should update the photos of the bottle (purchasers are going to compare and then return their items if discrepancy is discovered; a lot of unnecessary time and expense wasted) and revise their product description that briefly summarizes what the statement from Source Naturals says. Anyway, I'm glad to learn that the "lozenges" are the same sublingual tablet we all love. (Please do not complain that this is not a true review; I don't care, and have no regret.)

Great results for over a year (as needed).
Size: 200 Count (Pack of 1)
This brand was recommended by a staff member at my local co-op; they generally know a good deal about their products. I've used it for a year and I get great results with the sublingual tablets. They dissolve under my tongue in 10-15 minutes. The orange flavor is nice, but remember to rinse all of the toothpaste from your mouth or it could affect the citrus taste. I have no "next day" sleepiness from these. This dosage is high, so I'd recommend starting at the 1 mg dose and go from there. Amazon offers a great price; I still shop at the co-op for fresh foods and spices, but I'll switch to Amazon for these tablets.

Source Naturals Melatonin Orange Flavored Chewables
Size: 200 Count (Pack of 1)
This product is used for occcasional sleeplessness.
The product is made by Source Naturals located in Santa Cruz, CA. It contains 5 mg of melatonin and 338 mcg vitamin B6 (from pyridoxal-5).
I ordered this product after viewing a Dr. Oz episode about premenopausal and post menopausal symptoms of sleeplessness.
Melatonin is a neurohormone produced by humans by the pineal gland (cone shaped organ of the brain that secretes the hormone melatonin into the bloodstream. It is one of the endocrine glands and is situated beneath the back part of the corpus callosium). It helps the body to ease into a restful sleep. Melatonin is also a potent antioxidant.
I purchased Source Naturals' Bio Align product NightRest with melatonin multi nutrient and herb complex, but only tried it while I waited for my melatonin to arrive.
When it arrived, I realized I had purchased a similiar product at a cheaper cost than the huge retail whole-food chain.
This is an excellent product and it performs exactly as the manufacturers suggest. However, I find that their NightRest works much quicker. I take one tablet at around 7 p.m. and I'm out by 9:30-10 p.m. I get a peaceful nights sleep, and I sleep through the night. I wake rested and ready to start my day.
Either product would be super. Order according to your needs.

BEST SLEEP AID EVER!
Size: 200 Count (Pack of 1)
Most nights, I place 1-2 under my tongue, allowing them to dissolve, and fall asleep quickly. Even when I wake up in the middle of the night, I get right back to sleep easily. I usually combine this melatonin with Source Naturals L-Tryptophan too (1-2 at bedtime) with a glass of water, followed by the melatonin under my tongue. GREAT combination for those who have a hard time sleeping at night, or who have a temporary problem that is keeping them awake. Not necessary to use every night, only as needed. The L-Tryptophan can also be taken midday if you are stressed; however, NEVER use either of these products, or this combination of products, if you take prescription antidepressants or sleeping pills. I started using them 20 years ago instead of prescriptions because of the side-effects of drugs....OH, this sublingual melatonin has great flavor too (dissolve this melatonin under the tongue so it delivers directly to the bloodstream) .

Just have to be careful not to take more than one per night or else wake up feeling like have a hangover
Size: 200 Count (Pack of 1)
Definitely works for me. Just have to be careful not to take more than one per night or else wake up feeling like have a hangover. Works great for me but not as well for my stepmother. She has severe insomnia and has been on sleeping medications for years. She tried taking this to go a more natural route but did not even affect her.
