Is this variegation?
Hi Greggers! What do we think. This is the newest leaf and I got a unusual surprise when I had a closer look. οΏΌIs my philodendron silver cloud variegated (looking at the lighter green sections and not referring to the sliver) or am I just seeing things? #AskGreg #HappyPlants #Philodendron #PhiloFlock #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PLANTMAFIA #NewGrowth #PlantShelfie #Greggers #SpringIntoSummer #fallintowinter #FreshLeafFriday

@KikiGoldblatt thatβs what Iβm hoping. This is the only leaf so far but itβs working on another so fingers crossed π€.
@KikiGoldblatt yeah more light helps from what I have seen. Hopefully you get some great variegation
@OKIEgrnthmb thanks so much for the complement Amber π you should e very proud of your collection as well!ππ±
@DrMcPlantypants I really didnβt do anything to encourage it. High light can help bring it out but itβs mostly due to genetics of the plant and some variegation is not stable. What I did do that may of effected the plant is I cut it to propagate. Philodendron silver cloud is a crawling plant. So as it moves across the surface it puts down new roots into the soil. Since it does this itβs easier to cut the base to start propagation and the top just keeps growing. This leaf was coming out when I did the cut so it may of been the cause. No other condition had changed. I think itβs just a sport variegation but if not then I will be very happy.
@tmbryant37 you could try a pebble tray or just leave a glass or a vase next to the plant to help with humidity. Also group your plants and they will help each other and create a micro environment.
She's in the middle of my kitchen table which is really just a big plant stand at this point π
I've never used pebble trays before but I should give her one and see how she does. Thanks!
