Philodendron Silver Sword
Philodendron hastatum ‘Silver Sword’ is a gorgeous climbing Philodendron that is beloved for its pale, silvery green color and arrow-shaped leaves. As it matures, its leaves become increasingly elongated and tri-lobed. Paired with its climbing growth habit, this impressive foliage adds an instant tropical feel to any room. While it is native to rainforests across South America, this philodendron has become popular as a houseplant.
In its natural habitat, the Philodendron silver sword grows up trees and other vines in the understory of South America’s tropical rainforests. Consequently, it enjoys warm temperatures, filtered light, and consistent moisture. Since it has a climbing growth habit, it will also appreciate being given a moss pole.
Choose a spot directly next to a sunny window, but avoid prolonged exposure to harsh, direct sunlight if possible. At the same time, be aware that a lack of light will result in lackluster-looking leaves and leggy, stunted growth.
The soil should stay evenly moist, but not soggy. To prevent overwatering, allow the top inch of soil to dry slightly between waterings and then water well. Always allow the excess water to drain from the pot’s drainage holes to avoid drowning the roots and causing root rot.

from 47 reviewsThis was my first time ordering a plant online, and I would definitely do it again!
I had to wait until today to offer my review because my shipment didn’t come until today. The plants(3) were well secure in the shipping box. Great idea to tape all the plants to the box so they won’t shift. The plants themselves were well wrapped for their safety. The plants arrived in good shape.
Such a healthy, robust specimen. The color is gorgeous, a peach with pink and orange hues! The owner is a delight.
My new Money Tree was delivered in perfect condition! Very grateful for all the advice. Thank you, Melanie!
This is my favorite place to shop for my plants! I absolutely love the ease of ordering and delivery.
My plants are incredibly healthy! The owner is a delightful person and goes above and beyond for their customers.
The palm is a great addition to my collection. So grateful that Melanie has pet-friendly options. I have a new and very curious kitty! Love the delivery service too!
Customer service and knowledgeability of the plants is 10/10
Very beautiful plant. This plant exceeded my expectations. It is a bit larger than I anticipated. That is a very positive thing. Came to me very well cared for. I was pleased with my purchase.
Alocasia Polly is striking and soft at the same time. I will enjoy her for years to come
I was leery of shipping this plant, however it arrived in perfect condition, travelling from Michigan to California, and was even blooming when it arrived! I am so pleased with this as it was a gift for my niece. I will happily ship a plant from The Rooted Plant Shop again!
We had a great time with friends and new friends. Laughter, coffee, and Plants, BEAUTIFUL plants 🪴 ❤️
I enjoyed meeting Melanie, and she was very helpful in what I needed to do. I really appreciated having someone like her to help me! She was professional, friendly and very easy to talk to and ask questions.
Plants came beautifully packaged and fast. Each plant was healthy and a great addition to my collection. Thank you!
She arrived well packaged along with my other two plants. She is full and healthy! So glad I purchased her!
