White Knight Philodendron Care

Philodendron Sp. 'white Knight'

What is the plant

White Knight is a very rare but easy to grow variegated philodendron that tends to be rather slow growing but well worth the wait. This leaves are splattered with color and it has the most unusual purple brown and cream colored stems. The reason for the slow growth is that the nodes are only a half inch apart creating a much more compact foliage appearance.
