Philodendron 'Bob Cee' – Serrated Jungle Leaves with Creeping Growth

Bob Cee' Philodendron – Leaf Shape, Growth Habit and Tropical Presence

Philodendron 'Bob Cee' is a dramatic, fast-growing hybrid known for its jagged, deeply serrated leaves and thick, creeping stems. Each mature leaf develops a wild, jungle-like appearance with elongated lobes and a leathery surface, giving this plant its unmistakable character. Juvenile leaves start narrower and simpler, but as the plant grows and climbs or crawls, its true form unfolds – long, sawtooth-edged leaves that can reach impressive sizes in the right conditions.

This is a collector’s philodendron that brings bold structure and motion, thriving on bright light, high humidity, and space to sprawl or climb.

Key traits and foliage structure

  • Leaf shape: Deeply lobed, serrated edges, long and narrow
  • Color: Rich green with a glossy or semi-gloss finish
  • Growth form: Creeping or climbing; grows horizontally if unsupported
  • Size indoors: Leaf length can reach 50 – 70 cm; spreads laterally unless trained
  • Petiole: Thick, often ridged or grooved with slight undulation

Genetic background and natural behavior

Philodendron 'Bob Cee' is a cultivated hybrid, with no confirmed parentage but likely linked to species from the Meconostigma or Pteromischum sections due to its thick, lobed foliage and growth pattern. It behaves as a creeping climber – forming thick stems along the substrate or climbing if given a support. This hybrid is prized for both its leaf form and its aggressive, horizontal growth, which can cover large areas over time if not pruned or redirected.

Toxic to pets and humans if ingested, like all philodendrons.

Philodendron 'Bob Cee' care essentials

  • Light: Bright, indirect light encourages strong lobing and faster growth
  • Watering: Allow top 2 – 4 cm of soil to dry between waterings
  • Humidity: Prefers 60% or higher – benefits from a humidifier in dry spaces
  • Temperature: 18 – 28 °C ideal; avoid cold drafts
  • Soil: Aroid mix with chunky bark, perlite, and composted organics
  • Repotting: Every 1 – 2 years or when stems outgrow pot edge
  • Fertilising: Feed monthly with balanced liquid fertiliser
  • Propagation: Stem cuttings with node and aerial root – easy to root in moss or semi-hydro
  • Hydroponics: Adaptable to semi-hydroponics with proper humidity
  • Pruning: Trim stems to control spread or reroot for bushier growth

Problems you may encounter and how to solve them

  • Leaf curling: Usually due to underwatering or dry air – check soil moisture and raise humidity
  • Browning tips: Can result from salt buildup or low humidity – flush soil and adjust environment
  • Leggy growth: Caused by insufficient light – move to brighter spot
  • Thrips or spider mites: Wipe leaves regularly; treat early with neem oil or insecticidal soap
  • Root rot: Ensure well-draining soil and never leave roots sitting in water

Extra care tips for healthy, bold growth

'Bob Cee' responds well to training – give it a moss pole or lay stems horizontally to encourage aerial root growth. It’s a great candidate for large planters or terracotta troughs where it can stretch out and form multiple growth points. For maximum leaf size and mature lobes, keep humidity high and provide steady warmth. Avoid overwatering – this hybrid prefers short dry periods between drinks.

Etymology and cultivar history

Philodendron comes from Greek – “philo” meaning love and “dendron” meaning tree – referencing the genus’s climbing nature. ‘Bob Cee’ is a named cultivar believed to be bred in cultivation, likely in the U.S. or Southeast Asia. It remains relatively uncommon in standard retail but is valued among collectors for its jagged leaf silhouette and creeping, fast-spreading habit.

My son didn’t enjoy reading independently before this book
Format: Paperback
My son is 7, in 2nd grade. I got him this book in his Easter basket. Tonight he voluntarily picked it up, read the first chapter, was laughing, and then told me about it!! He’s never voluntarily picked up and read a chapter book before other than a graphic novel ! :)

‘Was Nugget’s power guiding me to help people?’ – a fantasy tale to cherish!
Format: Kindle
Diane Alber teams with Ryan Thomas in creating their PURPLE SPACE CHICKENS series, books that focus on inspiring art and creativity in children. The characters (both human and animal) sparkle throughout and the authors open with a taste of the fun to come introducing the boy Bear: ‘My name is Bear…It’s a code name I gave myself. Why a code name? Well, everyone in this book has one. Trust me, it’s better that way. I don’t want you knowing who I really am because the last thing I need is NASA asking a dozen questions - or worse, taking my little friend. But I had to document everything, because this experience is straight out of this world…literally.’ And with that intro we meet little chicken Nugget and the story sails forth with an amazingly entertaining and creative plot. There are many attributes to this series intended for grade school kids – one fine chapter book stories that will definitely continue!

Yes. definitely yes.
Format: Kindle
Rounding up from 4.5. This was a great read and has earned the title of my second favorite sapphic fantasy behind Aurora’s Angel. (Granted, there isn’t a huge amount of competition.) The two main characters are well written and there is plenty of swoon to keep you happy. It’s a slow burn (which I love) and it was done very well. The author keeps you riding on the excitement of what is to be. The longing looks, the subtle touches, the loaded dialogue. It was all great. Each interaction brought the two MCs closer together in such a sweet way. The plot was a good one and keeps you entertained without being overdone or making you too anxious. The book is well written and uses some period language (which I appreciate) without being too pretentious. It is well paced and flows very well from one scene to the next. No boring parts to suffer through. The reason for the missing half star: There were parts that I felt could have used more finesse, or maybe more explanation concerning Della’s insistence on seducing Galeon. The passion was there but it seemed like Della was being reckless at times. But maybe that was the point. I also wished that some of the supporting characters were a little more fleshed out. I wanted to know more about them. It doesn’t get nearly as deep into any aspect the way Auroras Angel did, but I don’t consider that a bad thing per se. It’s just a shorter and lighter read without as much depth. But still enjoyable Overall, this was a great book and I look forward to the future installments. Definitely recommend.

Will definitely be reading the second independent book in this series!
Format: Kindle
A slow burn fantasy novel that showcases the finer instances of romantic gestures and quick stolen glances in between the big showy, epic events. Once I picked up the book I could not put it down until I completed it fully. It was easy to get attached to the characters and I was happy that they didn't try to fit a hetero normative and instead felt to be a truly sapphic/queer relationship. The ending had me at the edge of my seat! While very immersive and easy to get sucked into the world built, I think what would take this to the next level would be more detailed world building. I found I yearned most for this book to get into the nitty gritty of describing and bringing to life the horrific transformations of the witches. I also felt some of the dialogue was a bit too modern which took me out of the older fantasy setting this story was set in for a second. Overall a great book that was easy to allow yourself to get immersed in and tugged around emotionally along with the characters. Loved it!!
