Philodendron 'Xanadu'

The ‘Xanadu’ Philodendron is a tropical, evergreen shrub known for its compact size and unique texture.   Naturally growing into a mounded shape about 3 feet tall and 4 feet wide, this bushy philodendron requires almost no pruning and is more sturdy than other species.  Its lush leaves are a glossy dark green with deeply cut lobes, about 18 inches long, on thick, sturdy stems.  These philodendrons prefer a partial sun environment, but will grow in full sun to deep shade, and are moderately drought tolerant.  Best grown in an area with cold protection, or in containers where it can be moved to a sheltered location in the winter.  ‘Xanadu’ is a fantastic way to add exotic texture to the landscape, as a foundation or accent plant, or along the edge of a patio, deck, or pool area.  ‘Xanadu’ philodendrons are proudly grown at Creekside Nursery in 3 gallon containers.
