Propagating Philodendron selloum from Cuttings

Philodendron selloum (now Thaumatophyllum bipinnatifidum) roots readily from stem cuttings, making it easy to multiply your plant.

Simple Cutting Method

1. Cut a 6+ inch tender stem tip.
2. Remove lower leaves, dip cut end in rooting hormone.
3. Plant 1 inch deep in moist potting mix.
4. Cover with clear plastic for humidity.
5. Place in bright, indirect light.
6. Check for roots in 2 weeks; remove cover once rooted.

Keep soil consistently moist but not soggy. The new plant will establish quickly and develop the same dramatic, deeply lobed foliage as the parent.
