Excellent informational video!!! Only just recently found hour channel and subscribed. Thank you so much. When I buy philodendron plants, the info provided usually doesnt specify whether they are crawlers or climbers. So no wonder the tendency is to try to attach them to moss poles. Take care.
Thank you!
Thank you so much for keeping your videos more on the educational side rather than shopping for rare plant like most of the plant videos are headed!!! Keep up the great work.
Thank you💚
I agree! I like the more educational aspect of Drea's channel. I always learn a thing or two in every video I watch of this channel.❤ I love it! 🌿💦
Please don’t ever stop making videos.
Since I found your channel a year ago, whenever I have a question, I always search your videos first for the answer.
The way you explain things and the research you do really helps me in a way that a lot of other plant TH-camrs don’t.
Thank you! I’m glad I can help💚
I'm so glad I came across this video on your channel. It is very informative. I was ordering philodendrons without knowing if they were climbers or crawlers and of course the ones I was ordering were all crawlers. Beautiful but I am running out of space for them especially the ones that have gotten big. Thanks again for the insight. I'm a big fan of your channel.😃😃😃😃😃
Glad it was helpful!💚
I had no idea there was such a thing as a crawling Philodendron!
Aloha from Maui, WOW!!! What a nicely, understandable video. You’re either an excellent teacher, or was one in a passed life!!!! You shared a lot of information, in a very clear & entertaining manor!!!! Many Blessings & Much Aloha to you, for all the time, work & energy, you invested into this video. Greatly appreciated!!!!!!!!
Aloha! Thank you so much💚 Glad I could help!
Last night my bestie sent me a pic of an orchid jumping out of the pot again. I told him to buy some pretty eaves and mount them along the whole inside wall and just let it be free to roam! It would be beautiful to have the hammered copper filled with the trailing plants! Who needs crown molding when you can have 90 feet of plants 😁🤣
These versus series are excellent. I'd love to see more videos like these ❤
I'm so glad I found you on TH-cam! You are so educational. I gain so much knowledge watching your videos.
Looking forward to your next one 🪴🌿🌱🥰
Thank you so much!
This video was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you so much - subscribed!
Thanks and welcome to the planty fam!💚
This was such a detailed video. Answered all my questions and more! 🌿❤️
Glad it was helpful!💚
Love your videos! Thanks for all the knowledge you pass on to us. I’ve learned A LOT from you!! 😊
You are so welcome!💚
Thank you so much for the work you put into this video - especially showing plants that are similar to each other in each category. Moss poles seem to be so crazy-popular. I would love to see more people displaying their crawlers! So beautiful!
You’re welcome! Glad you enjoyed it 💚
What an amazing video.
Girl, I needed this.
Thank you sooo much.
You are so welcome!💚
Wauw - just came across the video, and your channel today, and I’ve learned more from this one video, then any other channels combined. I appreciate the work behind this, and feel like this type of content will qualify me to make better purchases in the future and take better care of the plants afterwards.
Awe thank you💚
Really excellent and helpful work!!! Grateful...
This is such a huge help! Thank you
You’re welcome💚
I appreciate the time you took to make this video. It is full of so much helpful information! I definitely was looking for some answers to a couple of questions and you’ve answered so many of them. I am a Philodendron lover 🥰🥰🥰
I have big boi crawlers and there leaves are so beautiful 😍 I have more climbers tho.
So glad I could help!💚
thank you, sucha informative video (probably the most informative one about philodendron that i could find). Keep up the good work
Thank you! Glad I could be of help 💚
This is so helpful! I so appreciate so many of your videos. Thank you!
You are so welcome!💚
Wow, I'm so glad that I stumbled onto your videos. I definitely need your help.
Great video! I love growing plants on moss/bark poles so I felt a little unsure about the Gloriosum I just got finding out it was a crawler and not a climber only just now.
Your technique at the end of your video when it comes to propogating the stolon really helps a lot in planning my approach!
Glad it was helpful!
This was SO helpful!! ❤️🙏🌟
Glad I could help!
Very informative and super well made! Thank you for your knowledge!!

This is an excellent video, super informative and helpful!
Glad it was helpful!💚
I have bought several philodendrons and was told by the seller to put them on a moss pole for mature leaves. Now I'm going to examine them all to see if i wasted my time & money putting them on a pole. You explained this in a way that made it easy to understand. Thank you so much.
You’re welcome!💚
Really good information. Thank you for sharing this.
Glad it was helpful!
This was a marvelous presentation! Wow! I now know which ones to spend my money on. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Glad it was helpful!💚
Thank you. You've given me the idea of having multiple crawlers in the one trough. I was under the assumption that they'd crawl towards the light so I've aimed my McDowell towards the window. I might need to experiment 👍
Thank you for yet another wonderfully informative video. You have a clear, engaging manner and your photos really help clarify what you're talking about. Greetings from Australia 👋🐨🌿
Hi! You are so welcome!💚
@@AlohaPlantLife 🩷🐨🌿🩷
This is the best explanation I have come across. Thank you.
You're very welcome!💚
hey this was really, really helpful for me -- thank you for sharing!!
You’re welcome!💚
Very enlightening
Thank you for this detailed informative video! ❤
You are so welcome!
You are the only TH-camr I've come across to finally talk about the P. peltatum! I bought one in 2019. It's gorgeous. Interesting about the "P. aff sodiroi"... It's been so difficult to find information about this plant. Must admit I am thinking about giving mine a pole. I chopped it cause it seems to want to climb and all its new leaves were a third of the size they had been. It was a mess. I'll up-pot it next season, and I'm in a better lit home now, so we'll see...
Better light in your new place should help the leaf size💚
Great info love your videos
Thank you!💚💚
You have a lot of knowledge, thanks
My pleasure!💚
Great video! Thank you!
Glad you liked it!💚
wow. Very good explanation and alternatives
Thank you💚
OMG!!! You are amazing?? I have a Pasta. I bought it as a rehab.a year 1/2 ago. It produced small leaves. I do have an elongated pot. I have Leca. Time to report it. This video Rocked Me. Great knowledge!!
Glad I could help💚
Thank you for this fantastic video 😃 I'm here because I got Gloriosum Dark form, and realized it was a crawler once it came in the mail 🤣 so your video helps me to figure where to put it, and how to repot it 😊
You’re welcome💚
Wow, such a great video!
Thank you!
This is literally worth more than 2k views. It helped me a lot. You've summed up a day of searching in a nicely, organized way. By the way, I am thinking of putting cocochips in the pole instead of moss. What do you think of this? Moss is very expensive, as it is not sold as a product in our country, so it is imported.
Climbing Philodendron should readily attach to almost anything so I don't see why coco chips wouldn't work. You could also consider using a coco coir pole.
Great video. New follower😁
Aloha!
Thank you!
Yes! I bought a "sold as Sodiroi" that turned out to be a peltatum. I kept trying to put it on a pole and couldn't figure out why it would not comply. That's how I found out it was peltatum. I also had a difficult time learning how to water it for the exact reason you said, they seem to want more moisture. Thank you !
I can only imagine how frustrating that must have been. Thankfully you’ve got the poor guy sorted out and on track now💚
Awesome vid! Appreciate all the research you've done comparing the climbers vs crawlers of the same traits! QUESTION: how about P. Billietiae? climber/crawler/self-heading?
Definitely a climber! There are some beautiful baby ones and more mature ones on poles in my recent plant shopping video at Cultivar. I love seeing the difference in their leaf shape as they mature 💚
Thank you!
Oh Lord. Peltatum called mamei in so many videos. Happy I found yours.
superb explanation
Thanks!💚
thank you for this education

You’re welcome!
I’ve recently rescued a Rojo Congo Philodendron. It is quite young but it t doesn’t look like a crawler or a creeper. I also have a large Split Leaf Philodendron and a smallish Pink Princess. I’d like to know what to expect from these as well. I’m pretty sure the SLP is a creeper. It the others are new to me.
Your observation skills are pretty keen! The Rojo Congo is in fact not a climber or a crawler but rather a self-heading aka upright Philodendron. I have a separate video just on self-heading philodendron which I'll try and link at the end of this response (never tried to put a link in a comment though so not sure if it will work or not). In that video I also mention that when it comes to self-heading Philodendron there used to be what were referred to as arborescent self-heading Philodendron but that all of those plants were recently reclassified into the genus Thaumatophyllum. That's what your 'Split-Leaf Philodendron' is. So it will grow similar to self-heading Philodendron except that it will eventually become more tree-like with what looks more like a defined trunk though no where near as long as what you think of when you think about a normal tree trunk if that makes sense. Now, I have not yet done a video on what are known as semi-vining philodendron. Semi-vining philodendron act like they want to climb but they seem to be less inclined to easily attach to things in order to actually climb them, which I think is probably due to the fact that it seems like the majority of semi-vining philodendron on the market today are hybrids that were crossed with some type of self-heading philodendron. So a good example of a semi-vining philodendron would be your Pink Princess and also Philodendron White Knight and Philodendron Painted Lady just to give a few examples. So your pink princess is going to need a little extra help from you in order to get it to attach to and climb whatever support structure you might choose to give it. Hope this helps 💚 th-cam.com/video/vLivmfpHSak/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for the vid! Liked and subscribed! The peltatum looks like a sodiroi and a mamei and a pastazanum and a majestic! I dont know which one i have - its climbing well. I think its a majestic...but who knows!🤷♀
Is SP columbia a climber or a crawler?
SP Columbia is not a climber
OH EM GEE….THANK YOU SO MUCH @ALOHAPLANTLIFE!!!! THIS IS SOOO HELPFUL! I was making this mistake with my philo purchases and i finally get some info that helps. THE NURSERIES around me couldn’t even tell me…Would you say SQUAMIFERUM is a climber for crawler?
It’s a climber💚
Excellent information. Can you please let me know how to grow sp columbia?
Philodendron sp Columbia is a crawling Philodendron💚
Hi! I've just discovered your channel and I love it. I have a question about Philodendron Giganteum. Is it a climber or a crawler? Google doesn't seem sure and I've seen tons of photos where they're very clumped together looking almost self heading. That being said I was given a small Giganteum plant and it's climbing up a pole. I'm just very confused now lol
Climber. There’s a better picture for you here: powo.science.kew.org/taxon/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:87774-1/images
Please can you do a video on the separation of the crawling philodendron. I know you explained well, I just can't visualise where to cut it to the stick it back in the same pot.
Yes, but it’s going to be a little while before I can do a video on it since I don’t currently have any crawlers in my collection, but hopefully that will be changing soon💚
How can you get a climber to look more full? I have a large silver sword and it just seems sparse between leaves.
I’m just beginning to be a plant parent. This is the first video of yours that I have found. Thank you! I’m following and saved your Amazon site. True information about house plants seems uncommon.
First thing is to make sure it’s getting adequate light. Silver swords can go leggy a.k.a. bigger spacing between leaves really fast if they’re not getting enough light.💚
So helpful, I can't find any other video with this information. Do you have a list of other plants that are crawlers and climbers or a list of only crawlers? I have so many in a younger stage that will need a pole eventually if they are climbers but I do not want to stake them if they are crawlers. Also I"m trying to find out the climbers that I can get away with staking that will attach to something like driftwood because their aerial roots are more conducive for easy attachment or who just need stakes for support, verses really thrive and triple leaf size from moss poles (I prefer driftwood supports so I want to use them where i can but don't want to use them if the roots really won't attach). Thank you for a great video!
When I was planning out this video I tried so hard to find a comprehensive scientific source for all known crawling species of Philodendron and I unfortunately couldn't find one. And there are just so many hybrids when it comes the climbers that the list would be a mile long. However, there are a few ways you can tell if it's a climber or a crawler as it matures. For starters, a stolon is very different looking than what you see on a climber. However if the stolon isn’t fully visible, another thing you can look for is if there are aerial roots or the start of aerial roots. Only climbers get aerial roots. Crawlers only get soil roots. In regards to your question about type of 'pole' to give the climbers, if they're true climbers they will readily attach to anything (I mean they attach to tree bark in the wild so no reason they wouldn't attach to drift wood in your home). However, while I have also done a video on self-heading aka upright philodendron, I have not yet done a video on what are known as semi-vining philodendron. Semi-vining philodendron seem to be less inclined to readily attach which I think is probably due to the fact that it seems like the majority of semi-vining philodendron on the market today are hybrids that were crossed with some type of self-heading philodendron. So a good example of a semi-vining philodendron would be a Pink Princess or White Knight or Painted Lady. Those are going to need extra help to attach to pretty much anything. Hope this helps 💚
Ahhhhh….such useful info, thanks. I really thought they were all climbers!
Caring for plants is definitely a long game. It took me a minute to learn that truth about getting my plants to look the way I want them to. It doesn't happen over night.
💯
My question: Do you know if there a way to tell, by looking at the philo, if it is a climbing or crawling plant?
Excellent info, thank you! What is the name of the big plant you have to your right?
That’s my Monstera deliciosa💚
Hi, what type are Birkin? Thanks for your great video.
Birkin is an upright aka self-heading Philodendron. Here’s a video on those types: 10 STUNNING Upright Philodendron Varieties | Self-Heading Philodendron | Terrestrial Philodendron

I’m having a hard time IDing which philodendron I have. Can someone help so I know if it’s a crawler or a climber?!
I have a few new plants I could use your help figuring out if they are crawlers:
1. Philo bipennifolium Columbia
2. Philo esmeraldense
3. Philo fibraecataphyllum (however I’m questioning the ID because it really looks like a sodoroi with silver leaves)
Thanks for your help!
Sorry for the delay in responding to this! The 2nd two are definitely climbers. The first one, that name gets misused sometimes so I just want to make sure I’ve got the right plant. Does it look the same as philodendron sp Columbia? If so, it’s a crawler.
Yeah it totally seems like it wasn’t labeled correctly. I’m having a hard time telling for sure if it is the same as sp. Columbia, but I think it has to be? It has deep lobes and a very pillowy look. I recently saw someone else post the same plant online, and I can’t remember if she had to labeled as bipennifolium Columbia or species Columbia, but it was def the same plant and she said it was a crawler. So hopefully it’s a crawler! 😂 thank you so much for getting back to me!!! Super helpful!
Hello! I found this very informative! Can you tell mr if the philodendron goeldlii is a climber or crawler. I'm guessing a crawler, but I just want to be sure.
Actually it’s neither. It’s one of the self-heading Philodendron that has been reclassified into the genus Thaumatophyllum (it’s scientific name is Thaumatophyllum spruceanum). It’s what’s defined as an arborescent self-heading plant, which means it grows in a tree-like fashion. I have a video on self-heading Philodendron if you haven’t checked it out yet: th-cam.com/video/vLivmfpHSak/w-d-xo.html
@@AlohaPlantLife thank you so much! I'm going to watch the video right now!
What should you do with a silver sword? Mine has a thin, almost about to break stem at the soil but a thick stem higher. Should it be on a moss pole or is a support stake fine?
It’s what’s known as a semi-vining plant so it will climb but not very readily or without help from you. Because of that either a moss pole or a support stake will work, so which ever one you prefer💚
@@AlohaPlantLife thank you! Love your channel.
Loved your video. My question is how do you get a climber to reattach to the plank after you've let it grow as a trailer for the past year?
It will do it on its own eventually, it just takes time. Just tie it to whatever type of support you’re using. It does help if it’s something that you can moisten such as moss.
@@AlohaPlantLife so I don't have to cut away everything that isn't attached so that the new growth can start growing the attaching growths again? I've got several runners 6+ feet long with small leaves. Really want to get back to the attached runners with huge leaves that it originally had. This was a gift from a friend for my mother's funeral so it means a lot to keep it healthy and vibrant.
@@stevewilke3752 if you want to cut away the long runners you can but you won’t like immediately get larger leaves if that makes sense. It won’t hurt the plant to do that though.
Hi, can you please tell me, if I should attach my philodendron narrow to the pole? I just got it and wanna know if it can climb or I should just leave it as it is🙏
Hi! Philodendron narrow isn’t a climber or a crawler, it’s an upright Philodendron. Check out this video all about upright Philodendron if you haven’t already: 10 STUNNING Upright Philodendron Varieties | Self-Heading Philodendron | Terrestrial Philodendron
th-cam.com/video/vLivmfpHSak/w-d-xo.html
I was gifted a Philodendron Melinonii Golden. It is growing pretty quickly and I have been trying to figure out if I need to get this thing on a moss pole, or if it’s a crawler. My Google searches have said they are both epiphytic and terrestrial and that it grows on limbs of trees in the canopy of the rainforest. What would you recommend? Let it crawl or give it a pole? Thank you.
The answer is neither. It’s an upright, self-heading Philodendron. This video will help you out: 10 STUNNING Upright Philodendron Varieties | Self-Heading Philodendron | Terrestrial Philodendron
th-cam.com/video/vLivmfpHSak/w-d-xo.html
@@AlohaPlantLife Thank you!
Can you give me info on a billietiae? Don’t know if it’s epiphytic or what soil it should go into. Pretty sure it’s in the Araceae family
It’s a climber, and should be an epiphytic soil💚
I just want the giganteum and I'll use the leaves as blankets!
Did your monstera unfurl weird or is the angle playing tricks on me? (I do have a migraine starting so who knows) that front leaf looks all toothy and I'm kinda here for it! My baby is starting to unfurl. I don't expect any fenestrations yet. I think I'm going to add the baby with only 3 leaves (so tiny!) Into the pot and save a bit of space. Only issue is neither plant seems to have a front yet so I'm not quite sure on positions 🤔 How many deliciosa are in your pot?
Love your hair in this video! It looks really cute up!
It’s just the angle and the fact that that leaf is flipping up slightly at the tip for whatever reason. There are actually 9 vines in that pot! And thanks regarding the hair! So much quicker than having to straighten all of it lol (my hair is actually naturally curly 🙃)
@@AlohaPlantLife never would've guessed the curly hair! And darn that monstera acting funny for the video!
Is the purple princess a climber?
Could you help further by describing how to know the difference when we look at a philo not on this list?
I was so sure my Royal Queen was a crawler due to how she is growing in her current pot, but all sources say she’s a climber. TIA!
So unless it’s a fairly mature plant it can be difficult to tell just by looking at it. But a stolon is very different looking than what you see on a climber. However if the stolon isn’t fully visible, another thing you can look for is if there are aerial roots or the start of aerial roots. Only climbers get aerial roots. Crawlers only get soil roots. Hope this helps 💚
@@AlohaPlantLife Yes! This is very helpful! This particular plant is large and does have aerial roots even though she is currently growing “sideways”, which is what threw me off. She’s about to get a moss pole this week 😊Thank you SOOO much for replying! 💚
@@RNluvspibbles You’re welcome!
Danke
You’re welcome 💚
does philo.fuzzy is climbing or crawling one?
It’s a climber
Hi I've never had any crawling philodendrons so this is a pretty silly question, but can you not climb them up a pole at all? I want a bushy tall plant and i imagine having them crawl won't look the best. Thanks!
Hi! First of all, no question is silly!!! Secondly, you really can’t grow crawlers up a pole, unfortunately. If you’re looking for tall and bushy when it comes to philodendron go for the climbers. 💚
@@AlohaPlantLife alright, thank you for the answer. Was thinking of getting a mcdowell or a pastazanum but i guess I'll put it off until i have enough space. Also very informative video, keep it up! Wishing you and your loved ones well :)

Dear Drea, I saw on your web/shop Philodendron Summer Glory for sale. Is it a climber or a crawler?
According to your theory, it will be a climber, if the McColley's parent is a climber. To me it is more like "standing straight" one. Recently I heard from two people, located in Great Britain, that they SUSPECT their plants to be a crawler based on the plants behavior.
I will be very happy to find YOUR opinion on this plant.
Have a nice day.
I think it is likely crawling now that I’ve seen more mature ones just based on internodal spacing 💚
I have a philodendron summer glory and have no idea what I'm doing. Help!
Philodendron summer glory is actually a hybrid between a crawling philodendron and an upright philodendron so treat it like a crawler💚
Is the Pink princess and the white princess both climbers?
They’re hybrids that are a cross between a climbing philodendron and an upright philodendron, so they will climb but you really have to help them out with it since that aren’t as inclined to do so as non-hybrid climbers if that makes sense💚
It is so hard to tell them apart.
Philodendron plowmanii x Philodendron sodiroii cf
A crawler or climber?
That’s a tricky one. I’m not 100% but my gut is leaning towards it will likely be more inclined to crawl
G💚💚D J💚B!!!
Thank you!
No Congo Rojo ?
Not a climber or a crawler. I have a separate video on upright philodendron, which is what that one is💚
👋🌱😉👏😊🌵👏🇩🇪
So-Doe-RI-I
Ring of fire ?
That’s an interesting one. It grows more like an upright philodendron (I have a separate video on those types of philodendron) when it’s younger but as it matures it will eventually start to climb but it’s typically going to be a more compact climber with less space between nodes.
