Philodendron Xanadu
Philodendron Xanadu
Plot twist of the century (botanically speaking): for decades everyone said I was invented in a Perth backyard - a lucky Aussie hybrid. Genetics said otherwise. I'm the Xanadu, a genuine wild species from southern Brazil, and I've since been promoted out of Philodendron entirely into the genus Thaumatophyllum - which roughly means 'wonder leaf'. I don't make the rules; I just deserve them.
My deeply-lobed, wiggly leaves build into a dense, sculptural clump - no climbing, no totem, just architecture. Bright, indirect light, regular water while I establish, then I'm remarkably self-sufficient.
What you'll get (no surprises):
- Large - 200mm nursery pot, a bushy, established clump
Pets: wonder leaves, not wander snacks - toxic if chewed.
Keep my many leaves gleaming with Leaf Shine and ground the greenery in a Jardin Terrazzo Pot in Black.
🌱 One tree planted with every order.

Feeding your indoor plants
To get the best out of your indoor plants, you will need to feed them some food. The Good Plant Co Indoor Plant Food will provide all the nutrients they need to grow more leaves and help them stay strong. When the plant is actively growing during the warmer months, it needs a bit more food and water. During the slow growing season (cooler winter months) your plant doesn’t eat or drink as much (no extra winter layer of fat for these babies). Sometimes it’s ok to be a helicopter parent – respond to your plant’s needs. To keep the dust off your beautiful indoor plant leaves use The Good Plant Co Leaf Shine. Moral of the story, if it is growing new leaves then it will need more water and food!
We take great care in growing, packaging, and shipping your new plants so they’re ready to thrive in your home. This includes keeping them safe while they travel from our wholesale nursery to your doorstep.
