Along with my Billietiae, I got this #philodendronsquamiferum who I am also REALLY excited about! The stems are so weird and cool.

I saw this plant last week and I went back for it this week after seeing some pics of a more mature one that @GaryPoopins posted. ๐Ÿ˜† Thanks! ALSO any tips?! Lol.

I named this guy Shaitan (my husband says it's the origin of the word Satan and it means the old goat god on the mountain.) I asked him what name goes with Baphomet and that was his answer. Thanks, babe. ๐Ÿ˜˜

2ft to light, indirect
4โ€ pot with drainage
Last watered 2 months ago
It looks great! So long as its got good humidity and bright indirect lighting, all I have to do to keep mine growing and happy is to not F up the watering ๐Ÿค“ I eventually gave mine support with some bamboo and it really seemed to appreciate that as well!
Also, your husbandโ€™s name choice ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿป
@GaryPoopins thank you for the tips! ๐Ÿ˜„ Do they like to be a little more on the dry side? I just repotted him, I should find some kind of support.. if he gets much bigger, he'll need it! And yes lol he's really good at coming up with plant names. ๐Ÿ˜
@JesssJungle mine definitely puts up with being really dry before I water. Perfect world Iโ€™d water it when still barely damp, but probably once a month I pick it up to water it and realize thereโ€™s zero moisture left in the soil and it hasnโ€™t died on me yet.
I just got one today! Itโ€™s such a neat looking plant. Mine came tied to a little bamboo stick and Iโ€™m not sure if I want to keep him that way or let him be wild for awhile. Iโ€™m glad I saw this post and tips.
@PricklyThumb oh awesome, aren't they super interesting plants? I am actually thinking of giving mine a bamboo stick for support. They look like they can get a little unruly lol.
@JesssJungle mine came from Canopy Plant and I was so pleased with the size for the price. I also got a philodendron joepii. I go from having zero indoor plants at this time last year to buying these plants that are going to be huge๐Ÿ˜‚
@PricklyThumb oh my that joepii!! Wow I haven't seen one of those, I love the leaf shape.
@JesssJungle I have never seen stems like that! Those are intimidating!
@TheOddAsity aren't they wild?!
