About Camposportoanum Velvet Shield
Philodendrons grow aerial roots that grip the bark of trees, allowing them to grow over 20 feet tall! Their leaves change shape as they climb and can grow larger than a dinner plate. Fossils show Philodendrons growing as far back as 30 million years ago when South America was still connected to Antarctica! ❄️

My philodendron Grazielae went from this #1 to this #2 in 2 months. 😢 WTH have I done to her? #HappyPlants #Philodendron #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #PlantTherapy #GregGang

Growing great. But what might be the cause of brown spots on leafs? #Philodendron
-
4 all pink leaves on PPP. Would you chop or hope for new growth at previous chop point? I chopped it about a month ago due to the leaves not unfurling. The leaves unfurl now, they're just all pink😂😅 #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #Philodendron #PinkPrincessPhilodendron #PinkPlantsofGreg #NewGrowth

They arrived in perfect condition. My heart just 💕 swelled with joy. I posted his Etsy shop above. The blooming (smells like heaven) #sansevieriablackcoral has sooo many new babies and the pot is about to bust open from the new growth. #happywifehappylife

Why does my philodendron have sticky spots? My red emerald philodendron has some sticky dots on the underside of some of the leaves. It’s only a few of the leaves at the top of the plant. Any ideas what this could be? #Philodendron #PhiloFlock

Help! Red Congo care Shes got a brown spot that keeps getting bigger. After 2wks from the garden center i repotted her as she was root bound. And her soil is moist, in proper drainage soil. I dunno what i should do? Should i cut stem at base? Also can i bottom water this plant like i do my other plants? #redcongophilodendron #philodendron #help

I am floored. I put my trust into Green Escape and they sent me a grower’s choice Thai con with not one, not two, but THREE half moons. The cardinal is gorgeous and the Billitae is ADORABLE. This is my second variegated rope and it has 3X the roots my previous one had (and it was way bigger) so hopefully this one makes it!! But that Thai Con 🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵 #MonsteraMob #monsterathaiconstellation #Philodendron #PhiloFlock #PhilodendronBillietiae #PlantShopReview #PlantMail

Have you tried air layering? Thought to try this with my Campos. With spaghnum and saran wrap. Its been only 3days but great progress. The leaf that hasnt harden grew bigger. A new leaf is unfurling and another on the way. Gonna wait til the root is established before I cut #propagation #airlayering #philodendron

I’m worried about this little guy. Any suggestions on what’s wrong with him? Thanks ❤️ #Philodendron

Easy to grow as long as it has enough humidity to help it’s new leaves unfurl. Camposportoanum will change their leaf shapes many times before reaching maturity. Beginning as little velvet heart shapes and eventually becoming much bigger and deeply tri-lobed. They lose their velvety look as they grow though, and for a while they produce a bit of a pink blush.
