Philodendron Calkins Gold

Philodendron ‘Calkins Gold’ — 4" Starter Plant

Philodendron ‘Calkins Gold’ is a bright, cheerful Philodendron with glowing golden-green foliage that brings instant color to any plant shelf. Its leaves can show shades of lime, chartreuse, soft yellow-green, and deeper green as the plant matures, giving it a fresh tropical look without being difficult to grow.

This variety is a wonderful choice for collectors who enjoy colorful Philodendrons, but it is also friendly enough for newer plant parents. With bright indirect light and a chunky, well-draining mix, Philodendron ‘Calkins Gold’ can grow into a beautiful, full houseplant over time.

This listing is for one 4" starter plant grown from tissue culture. These plants are established, actively growing, and ready for their next home.

Starter Plant Note

This is a 4" starter plant, not a mature specimen. Starter plants are smaller and may not yet show their full mature leaf size or final coloring. With proper care, this plant should continue to size up and develop more character as it grows.

Tissue Culture Note

This plant was grown from tissue culture and has been acclimated into soil. Tissue-culture-grown plants may start smaller, but they are a great way to grow rare or interesting plants from a young stage.

Pet Safety

Philodendrons are toxic to pets if chewed or ingested. Keep away from curious pets and children.

Shipping Note

Orders ship Mondays and Tuesdays to help prevent plants from sitting in transit over the weekend. Your plant will be carefully packed for shipping.
