Philodendron Birkin, or Philodendron ‘White Wave’, is a new Philodendron variety. It's a popular, slow-growing houseplant known for its striking deep green, heart-shaped leaves adorned with creamy-white or yellow pinstripes.
It is a compact, non-vining variety that typically reaches a height and spread of 2 to 3 feet indoors. Each leaf has a unique pattern, making this one of the most attractive Philodendrons.
This plant was cultivated from a rare spontaneous mutation in the Philodendron Rojo Congo. This mutation made some plant cells unable to synthesize chlorophyll, resulting in the captivating variegation colors in Birkin's leaves. New leaves are almost white, and the leaves gain more green color as they mature.
As one of the most sought-after Philodendron types, this plant can brighten up any living space! Like all philodendrons, Birkin filters out airborne toxins and purifies your indoor air.
