I got this amazing Philodendron Gloriosum White Veins of of "Kleinanzeigen" which is what Germans use instead of Facebook market place. I've been wanting on efor a while and when I saw an insert which was priced at 20€ I knew I had to get it.
I thought it would be plant with quite a couple of leaves but not too big in size judging by the photos and the fact that this is not a houseplant that has reached the mainstream around here.
Nope. I was wrong. So very wrong.
This is a fu**ing Monster. I had to improvise a pot for it out of an Amazon carton and some pond lining.
I'm not sure what to do, I don't quite have the space as my apartment isn't too big and has quite low ceilings but then also I don't want to chop it again (the previous owner chopped it and kept a part to themself).
First ever time in my life I'm happy that I didn't get the "top"-chop (not sure what it's called in English).
You can see a drying rack in the corner of the picture as reference…
It's on the heater right now as I'm unsure where to put it yet, but I'll definitely have to move it once it gets colder around here….
