  • In this episode, I share the care of this 2 year old variegated Philodendron billietiae and ended up propagating it. I share every detail about the propagation process as well as care for the cuttings, showing you a very satisfying 6 months update at the end of the episode! In this episode, we learn how to trouble shoot root rot during propagation in order to rescue them!

    Your billie gives me hope. I have my own that I got, a small one that put out a leaf about 1.5 times the size of the ones before it and has shown no signs of putting out another in about a month now. I was worried i was doing something wrong and couldn't figure out what, but knowing that it took 2 years for yours to grow to that point and how rarely it puts out leaves has reassured me. I can't wait for mine to get as big as yours.

    Well, sometimes you have to cut a lot in order to have varigation! You did well my friend! Although I admit ,I got scared watching you chop those tight nodes yet it ended pretty good at the end, the varigation looks stunning!! As for maintaining the varigation on the Billy, you have to give it intense light , morning or evening sunlight to keep the varigation constant,and a good specimen of course.
