{"product_id":"philodendron-birkin","title":"Philodendron Birkin","description":"\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003eIf you love a bold statement print but want a houseplant that will not punish you for having a life, the Birkin is your perfect match. This spectacular plant is famous for its dark green leaves painted with striking white pinstripes. The fun part about a Philodendron Birkin is that it is totally unpredictable. Every new leaf unfurls with a completely unique pattern, and as the plant matures, the white stripes become even more dramatic. It looks like a high-maintenance designer piece, but because it is a Philodendron, it is wonderfully forgiving and happy to adapt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003e12cm Nursery Pot size only for this plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"9\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eHow to keep it happy:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"10,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eLight:\u003c\/b\u003e This is the key to the stripes. It needs bright, indirect light to keep that white variegation looking sharp. If you hide it in a dark, dingy corner, the new leaves will revert to a plain, boring green.
