Philodendron billietiae is a climbing hemiepiphytic species with yellow-orange to greenish yellow petioles and long green blades. The petioles add the main colour contrast, while the leaves lengthen into a narrow, slightly pendent shape with subtly wavy margins.
The petioles are erect-spreading and the blades are pendent. A mature plant can fill space around the pot as the petioles push outward and the long blades drop slightly from their tips.
Philodendron billietiae grows in tropical rainforest habitat across the Guianas and northern Brazil. Its combination of spreading petioles and pendent blades gives mature plants a wide, open shape in the pot.
Mature plants can develop thick stems, short internodes, large spreading petioles and long blades that hang away from the stem. In a container, the plant needs pot weight, root aeration and enough side space for the petioles to extend naturally.
Philodendron billietiae contains calcium oxalate crystals. Keep it away from pets, and avoid contact with sap when pruning if your skin is sensitive.
The genus name Philodendron comes from Greek roots meaning “tree-loving”. The species epithet billietiae honours Frieda Billiet, and Philodendron billietiae was described by T.B. Croat in Novon in 1995.
