Plant Species: Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium Rio

Plant Genus: Philodendron

Plant Family: Araceae

Native Habitat: Mexico, Honduras

Soil Drainage: Well-draining soil is recommended, using a substrate mix composed of coconut coir, perlite, vermiculite, sphagnum moss, and pumice.

Soil pH: Acidic

Fertilizers: Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium Rio is a very easy-to-care-for plant with modest fertilization needs. However, for its optimal growth, we recommend using a bio-type fertilizer (we use the BioBizz brand for the plants we cultivate) from the beginning of March to the end of November.

Air Humidity: This cultivar is perfectly adapted to indoor conditions and thrives well even in low humidity environments, down to 40%. However, note that its aerial roots won't develop as they typically do in epiphytic plants. Instead, it will have a more trailing growth habit.

Temperature: 18-29 Celsius degrees

 

Potted Plant Height:

  • Size M: 20-25cm
  • Size S: 12-15cm

 

Potted Diameter:

  • Size M: 11X11cm
  • Size S: 7X7cm

 

Because there are multiple types of mutations in Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium, leading to different yet similar variegated cultivars, this should be noted in the preamble of this text 😊

There are seven known mutations of Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium, with differences not only in colors but also in availability and cost on the market. In order of their availability in the Romanian and European market (and therefore this list should be seen as "from the cheapest to the most expensive"), they are:

  • Philodendron hederaceum Brasil – colors in the center of the leaf range from yellow to light green, bordered by dark green.
  • Philodendron hederaceum Lemon lime – the color of the new leaf is entirely yellow-green (a hint of pink may appear if the plant is overexposed to light), maturing into a light green with a hint of yellow.
  • Philodendron hederaceum variegata – a classic variegation with random white splashes of different shapes and sizes, maturing into a light green.
  • Philodendron hederaceum Silver Stripe – a stable cultivar with variegation starting as light green in the center of the leaf, bordered by a silvery stripe that separates the central variegation from the rest of the dark green leaf.
  • Philodendron hederaceum Cream Splash – originating from Silver Stripe, this cultivar underwent an additional mutation leading to the appearance of a new color – creamy white – positioned between the light green center and the silver border. The variegation in this cultivar can be inconsistent, producing leaves ranging from almost entirely creamy white to leaves with a thin silver-white line down the center.
  • Philodendron hederaceum Rio – variegation pattern starting with silver, creamy white, silver, dark green, available in the US market from the producer Gabriella Plants.
  • Philodendron hederaceum Gabby – variegation pattern starting with light green, creamy white, dark green / light green, resulting in the highest variegated surface. This cultivar is available only in the US market from the producer Gabriella Plants.

 

And since the differences between the Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardum cultivars are no longer a mystery after this extensive introduction, it's time to delve into Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardum Rio, the plant available here.

 

It is a relatively rare cultivar, its aforementioned variegation making it one of the most desired plants among collectors. Additionally, like its "parent" species - Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardum – it is very easy to grow and maintain, making it an ideal candidate for beginners in the realm of plants, despite its rarity. Moreover, due to the instability of the variegation pattern, there's no risk of producing leaves with low chlorophyll content from a certain point onwards, which would significantly slow down the plant's growth rate.

 

Ideal growth conditions involve an air humidity of 60-70%, but it performs admirably even in environments with lower humidity, around 35-40%. Cream Splash thrives in bright indirect light (east-facing windows are the best) and should be watered when the top two centimeters of the substrate have dried out.

 

Attention! To check the substrate's moisture level, inserting a finger into the pot to a depth of 2 cm is the best way to measure soil moisture. So, if the substrate feels wet, keep the spray bottle away for a day or two, and if it feels dry, water it.

Attention 2! When discussing watering, consider the pot's size, the amount of substrate, and its degree of aeration. In other words, don't pour a liter of water into a pot with a diameter and height of 12 cm, as this could drown the plant's roots. It's best to pour off excess water from the collector tray half an hour after watering.

The plant can be mounted on a support pole wrapped in coconut fiber. This will encourage the aerial roots to attach to the support, resulting in a more robust stem and progressively larger leaves. Additionally, if you prefer the aesthetic of trailing plants, you can let it grow without support, and as the vines lengthen, you can secure them to walls with special clips.

 

Best of luck with caring for it! And don't forget to give us updates about your plant, using the hashtag #greenmirrors and tagging @green.mirrors in your Instagram posts! We promise to share them in our stories 😊

just works perfectly out of the box
Style: 1-Pack, Size: 6 Feet
Plugged this in between my PC and monitor and it worked right away with zero setup required. Picture quality is great and I've had no issues with flickering or signal drops after weeks of use. The 6 foot length is perfect for a typical desk setup and it feels a lot sturdier than the random cheap cables I've used before. Honestly what more could you want from a cable at this price point.

THE PORTAL CABLE OF DESTINY
Style: 1-Pack, Size: 6 Feet
Behold, traveler of pixels and slayer of tangled cords, for I bring you tidings of a humble cable that rose from the depths of “Amazon Basics” and ascended into the realm of LEGENDS. I speak, of course, of the Amazon Basics DisplayPort to HDMI Cable, a unidirectional conduit forged for 4K @ 30Hz glory, capable of translating your GPU’s cryptic DisplayPort hieroglyphs into the universal language of HDMI with the grace of a diplomat and the precision of a laser-guided falcon. ⚡ The Summoning Once unboxed, the cable practically hummed with untapped potential. Thick enough to feel sturdy, yet flexible enough to bend like a willow in a gentle breeze, it whispered: “Connect me… and behold your destiny.” I obliged. 🌌 The Awakening of Pixels Upon insertion of the DisplayPort end into my tower—a sharp, satisfying click, like Excalibur finding the stone—and the HDMI end into my monitor, reality shimmered. My second screen flickered to life. Suddenly, spreadsheets became scenic vistas. YouTube videos transformed into cinematic marvels. The 1080p realm bowed before the cable’s serene stability. And 4K at 30Hz? A smooth, noble glide worthy of a productivity paladin. No spark. No noise. No handshake issues. Just a cable doing exactly what it was put on this Earth to do—connect universes. 🔥 Uni-Directional Power, Baby Many a mortal has fallen by forgetting the ancient rule: DisplayPort → HDMI ONLY. Not the other way. Never the other way. This cable knows who it is. This cable has boundaries. This cable has self-respect. 🛡️ Reliability of a Trusted Companion Weeks of use. Dozens of unplug/replug rituals. A tumble from my desk. Did it falter? Nay. Its signal was steady. Its mission: unwavering. Its performance: chef's kiss of electronic harmony. ⭐ Final Verdict: 5/5 If you require a DP-to-HDMI bridge that performs without drama, without ego, and without catching fire—this is your hero. Not flashy. Not overpriced. Just reliable, battle-ready, and epically competent. Buy it. Wield it. And watch your displays obey.

A Golden Bridge of Pixels and Dreams: The Amazon Basics Mastery
Style: 1-Pack, Size: 25 Feet
Rating: 🔌🔌🔌🔌🔌 (5/5 plugs) Navigating the vast seas of tech can be a daunting task, but every now and then, a beacon emerges, guiding us through with clarity and purpose. Enter the Amazon Basics DisplayPort to HDMI Display Cable – a 25-foot tapestry of connectivity that seamlessly bridges worlds. Visually, the cable might appear unassuming, but its true strength lies beneath the surface. Dressed in an elegant shade of black, it's a discreet companion that focuses on performance rather than pomp. However, the gold-plated plugs, gleaming like crowns, hint at the superiority housed within. It's not just a cable; it's a regal pathway. The moment I connected my device, the magic unfurled. Transporting visuals from the DisplayPort realm to the HDMI kingdom, the transition was so smooth, it felt like watching a painter seamlessly blend colors on a canvas. From the detailed intricacies of a 1920x1200 resolution to the immersive depths of 1080p, every pixel found its home, painting a vivid tableau. 25 feet – what a marvel! Whether my devices are close-knit neighbors or separated by a grand hall, this cable covers the distance with aplomb. The length ensures flexibility and adaptability, whether I'm setting up an elaborate home theater or connecting a workstation across the room. Its uni-directional prowess ensures a focused and uninterrupted flow of data. There's an unspoken promise here: once you plug in, the Amazon Basics cable takes over, ensuring a performance that's both robust and reliable. The gold-plated plugs aren't just for show; they're a testament to quality. They ensure a stable connection, reducing interference and elevating the transmission quality. It's like having a dedicated team of golden knights guarding your digital realm. However, in this symphony of tech, if there were a single note I'd love to tweak, it would be the inclusion of a clip or velcro strap. For those times when I don't need the entire 25-foot expanse, managing the extra length would be so much more convenient with this tiny addition. To conclude, the Amazon Basics DisplayPort to HDMI Display Cable is more than a mere accessory; it's a conduit of dreams. It understands that in our digital age, connectivity isn't just about devices; it's about experiences, memories, and moments. And with this cable, every moment is presented in its richest form, unadulterated and true.
