A dense, low spreading tropical plant with deeply
dissected, lobed green leaves that are glossy; foliage
arches downward from long upright petioles; flowers
rarely; great for medium height groundcover, containers
or as a houseplant
Ornamental Features:
Xanadu Philodendron's attractive glossy lobed leaves
remain green in colour throughout the year. Neither the
flowers nor the fruit are ornamentally significant.
Landscape Attributes:
Xanadu Philodendron is a dense herbaceous evergreen
annual bedding plant with a ground-hugging habit of
growth. Its medium texture blends into the garden, but
can always be balanced by a couple of finer or coarser
plants for an effective composition.

This is a relatively low maintenance annual bedding plant,
and should not require much pruning, except when
necessary, such as to remove dieback. It has no
significant negative characteristics.
Xanadu Philodendron is recommended for the following landscape applications;
- General Garden Use
- Mass Planting
- Container Planting
- Hanging Baskets
Plant Characteristics:
Xanadu Philodendron will grow to be about 3 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 4 feet. Although it's not
a true annual, this fast-growing plant can be expected to behave as an annual in our climate if left
outdoors over the winter, usually needing replacement the following year.
This annual bedding plant does best in partial shade to shade. It prefers to grow in average to moist
conditions, and shouldn't be allowed to dry out. It is not particular as to soil type or pH, and is able to
handle environmental salt. It is somewhat tolerant of urban pollution.
This particular variety is an interspecific hybrid, and parts of it are known to be toxic to humans and
animals, so care should be exercised in planting it around children and pets.
