Philodendron Birkin is a beautiful terrarium subject with stunning coloration on the leaves. This is not one commonly seen offered. Eventually these can get large, but as long as its an 18" or larger cube, it will be an awesome center piece with leaves large enough and stiff enough to support even P. terribilis.

How to Care for the Plant
Water
Like most plants, you want moist soil so your philodendron birkin can soak up the hydration.
Pruning
Typically, you'll want to prune in either the spring or fall. Be sure to use pruning shears to create a clean cut. Also, throughout the year, you can safely give your Birkin a light trim, removing any yellowing leaves or areas infected by pests or disease.
Fertilizer
A balanced liquid fertilizer is a perfect choice. This liquid fertilizer should have micro-nutrients calcium and magnesium. These are two of the most important nutrients for philodendron plants
Sunlight
Philodendron birkin plants thrive from bright indirect light. You want to give your plant the feeling it's under a tropical canopy.
Soil
They grow the best in sphagnum peat moss-based soil. These plants thrive in soil that's nothing but peat moss.
Temperature
A philodendron birkin does well in a warm and humid room since they're tropical plants.
Additional
Unfortunately, the Philodendron Birkin, like many other tropical plants is toxic to both pets and humans. Because of this, make sure you keep it out of range of your cats and dogs, but also small children. This plant is only toxic when the leaves and stems have been chewed on. Birkins grow best in humidity, damp soil, and indirect sunlight. Birkins have evergreen foliage, so the pretty leaves survive throughout the year. They have dark, green, glossy leaves with variegation. The leaves have creamish, white pinstripes which appear as the leaves mature.
