Know before you buy
This plant thrives in bright, indirect light. Placing it near an east-facing window or a few feet away from a south-facing window is ideal to maintain its signature white variegation.
No, this plant is toxic to pets if ingested. It is best to keep it on a high shelf or in a room that your pets cannot access.
While it is not drought-tolerant, it prefers to dry out slightly between waterings. Check the top inch of soil; if it feels dry to the touch, it is time to water.
The Birkin is relatively low-maintenance, but consistent bright, indirect light is key to keeping the white pinstripes vibrant. If the plant receives too little light, new leaves may revert to solid dark green.
Yes, the Philodendron Birkin arrives fully established in its own pot. You can place it directly into your space as soon as it arrives.
