In its natural habitat, this beautiful plant grows upward along trees while its long leaves hang gracefully downward. Providing a tall moss pole or wooden plank encourages larger, more mature foliage with dramatic rippling. Pair this with bright, indirect light and high humidity to help your plant develop its signature cascading leaves.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2583\" data-end=\"2728\" class=\"\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e*P\u003cspan\u003elease note that \u003c\/span\u003ecolor may differ slightly from how it appears on your screen\u003cspan\u003e due to varying monitor settings. \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e**Please note that you will receive the exact plant shown in the photos.\u003c\/h5\u003e","brand":"Urban Ivy Houseplants","offers":[{"title":"6”","offer_id":51482662994145,"sku":null,"price":64.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0725\/5700\/2977\/files\/library-8062FD21-1A7E-42CF-A707-BE16BBFAD952-L0-001.jpg?v=1794515643","url":"https:\/\/urbanivyhouseplants.ca\/products\/philodendron-patriciae-exact-plant","provider":"Urban Ivy Houseplants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
