Description
✦ The Plantry Plant Co. ✦
"The Philodendron Burle Marx is named after Roberto Burle Marx — the legendary Brazilian landscape architect who transformed gardens into living art. It is a fitting tribute, because this plant carries itself with exactly that kind of quiet, purposeful elegance. No frills, no gimmicks — just beautifully shaped, glossy paddle leaves on a strong stem that knows where it's going." — Mr. Phileas Plant
The Plant
The Philodendron Burle Marx is a vigorous, easy-growing aroid with elongated heart-shaped leaves, a pronounced midrib, and a deep, glossy green finish. Named after the legendary Brazilian landscape architect, it carries itself with the same kind of quiet, purposeful elegance — no frills, just effortlessly beautiful foliage.
This specimen is potted in a 4" clear nursery cup with a sturdy central stem carrying 4 deep green leaves. Active aerial roots at the nodes tell you this plant is healthy and ready to grow. Give it a moss pole and it will reward you; leave it to trail and it will oblige with equal grace. Care is refreshingly uncomplicated — she's forgiving of the odd missed watering and bounces back with resilience.
