Philodendron Birkin

Botanical Name: Philodendron 'Birkin'

Common Name(s): Birkin Philodendron

Philodendron Birkin is a striking, ornamental houseplant known for its unique and eye-catching variegated leaves. The leaves are glossy and dark green with striking white or cream-colored streaks that run through the center, creating a beautiful, pinstriped pattern. This compact plant has a bushy growth habit and typically grows to about 12-18 inches tall, making it a perfect choice for desks, tabletops, or smaller spaces in your home.

Philodendron Birkin thrives in bright, indirect light, which helps maintain its vibrant variegation. It prefers well-draining soil and should be watered when the top inch of soil feels dry. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so it’s important to let the soil dry out between waterings. While it can tolerate average indoor humidity levels, higher humidity will promote better growth and help maintain its striking foliage.

Air Purifying Qualities:

  • Toxin Removal: Like other Philodendrons, the Birkin variety is effective at removing common indoor toxins such as formaldehyde, benzene, and xylene, improving indoor air quality.
  • Oxygen Production: It absorbs carbon dioxide and releases oxygen, helping to create a fresher and cleaner indoor environment.
  • Humidity Regulation: Birkin Philodendron also contributes to humidity regulation through transpiration, making it an excellent choice for adding moisture to dry indoor spaces.

Note: Philodendron Birkin is toxic to pets (cats and dogs) if ingested, so it should be kept out of reach of curious animals. Always monitor pets to prevent them from nibbling on the leaves.

Care Insights & Expert Tips

  1. Fertilize regularly: Feed your plant with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength every 4 weeks during the spring and summer season.
  2. Monitor for pests: Keep an eye out for common houseplant pests like mealybugs and spider mites. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
  3. Be patient: Philodendron Birkin is a slow grower, so don't be discouraged if it doesn't grow rapidly.
  4. Repotting: Repot every 1-2 years or when the plant becomes root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix, such as peat-based or general houseplant mix, and select a pot that’s just 1-2 inches larger than the current one.

FAQs

Do you have a return or replacement policy for plants?

Due to the perishable nature of plants, we do not accept returns based on personal preference. Shipping live plants back and forth can cause unnecessary stress and jeopardize the health of the plant. We encourage customers to choose carefully before placing an order. Our risk-free, 30-day customer guarantee covers cases where plants arrive damaged, dead, sick, or incorrect items were sent. We will send you a replacement plant or provide a refund.

If there’s an issue with your order, please notify us within 30 days so we can address the issue as quickly as possible. To learn more, visit 30-Day Customer Guarantee. Refunds will be processed to the card or account used for your purchase and will typically be available in your bank in 3-5 business days from the date it was issued.

Can I order and receive plants during the winter?

Yes, we ship plants year-round! Our shipments are carefully packaged to ensure we deliver healthy plants to your door every day of the year. We monitor the weather across the country and will include heat packs at no extra charge to keep your plants warm during shipping. If weather conditions are extreme (e.g., storm or severe winter), we will inform you of an updated delivery date that we believe is more appropriate.

How can I change my order details?

To update your order details, please contact us within 24 hours of placing your order. We care about all our customers and will like to ship the correct item to the right location. We are not held responsible for orders shipped to incorrect addresses. In addition, we cannot cancel orders that has already been shipped.

If I order more than one plant, will they ship separately?

Items apart of the same order typically ship together. In rare circumstances, the items may ship from both our Southern California and Florida greenhouses and could arrive in separate packages at different times. For these instances, once each item is shipped, you'll receive individual tracking information for each package, so you can easily track their progress.

Where do you ship?

We currently ship to the contiguous United States which consists of the 48 U.S. states and the District of Columbia.

Do you offer same-day or next-day delivery?

Unfortunately, we do not offer same-day or next-day delivery. Plants require careful preparation and packaging to ensure they arrive healthy and in optimal condition, we take the necessary time to pack them properly. This ensures that your plants are shipped safely and arrive ready to thrive.
