Philodendron nangaritense

Philodendron nangaritense is an Araceae species from southern Ecuador, known for creeping terrestrial growth, broad green leaves, rough red to maroon petioles and warm pink to copper-toned emergent foliage. New leaves mature through softer tones into broader green blades, while the textured petioles remain a key feature as the plant develops.

The stem extends across the substrate surface, so Philodendron nangaritense needs horizontal room and an airy mix that holds light moisture without staying dense around the roots.

Copper new growth and creeping stems in Philodendron nangaritense

  • Family: Araceae, the aroid family.
  • Leaf colour: Pink to copper new growth matures into broader green leaves.
  • Petioles: Red to maroon petioles with pale tubercles and a rough surface.
  • Growth habit: Creeping terrestrial growth with the stem extending across the pot surface.
  • Indoor spread: Can broaden steadily across a wide pot as the creeping stem produces spaced nodes.
  • Growth rate: Usually moderate in warm, bright, humid conditions, with slower growth during cooler darker periods.
  • Name origin: The epithet refers to the Nangaritza area of southern Ecuador.

Philodendron nangaritense care for a creeping stem

Choose a wider pot that gives the creeping stem room to move across the surface. Keep the stem sitting on top of the substrate, with roots growing into a chunky mix that holds some moisture while draining quickly.

Philodendron nangaritense is associated with humid forest in the Nangaritza region of southern Ecuador. Indoors, warm temperatures, filtered light, steady moisture and good root aeration help the creeping stem and textured petioles develop cleanly.

  • Pot choice: A wider container gives the creeping stem more usable surface than a narrow deep pot.
  • Repotting: Repot when the stem reaches the pot edge, the roots fill the container or the mix has compacted.
  • Substrate: Use an airy aroid mix with bark, coarse fibre and mineral structure around the roots.
  • Water: Water after the upper substrate begins to dry, then allow full drainage.
  • Light: Bright indirect light, with protection from harsh direct sun on tender new leaves.
  • Humidity: Higher humidity helps new leaves expand without sticking or tearing.
  • Temperature: Keep warm and avoid cold, wet root conditions.
  • Fertilising: Feed lightly during active growth; reduce feeding when light levels and growth slow.
  • Propagation: Root stem cuttings with at least one node in warm humid conditions and an airy propagation medium.
  • Pruning: Remove damaged leaves at the petiole base or trim an overlong creeping stem above a healthy node.
  • Semi-hydroponics: Semi-hydro can work when roots are adapted gradually and the reservoir stays clean and oxygenated.

Philodendron nangaritense petiole, stem and leaf issues

  • Stem softness: Check whether the creeping stem has been buried or kept against wet, compact substrate.
  • Stuck new leaves: Improve humidity around active growth and avoid sharp dry-to-wet swings in the mix.
  • Leaf-edge stress: Look for dry air, irregular watering or root stress.
  • Pests: Inspect emergent leaves and textured petioles for spider mites, thrips, mealybugs and scale.

Philodendron nangaritense toxicity

Philodendron nangaritense contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals, so keep leaves, petioles and stems away from pets and children that may chew plant material.

Botanical background of Philodendron nangaritense

The genus Philodendron was published by Heinrich Wilhelm Schott in Wiener Zeitschrift für Kunst, Litteratur, Theater und Mode 3: 780 in 1829, and the genus name comes from Greek-derived roots meaning “tree-loving.” Philodendron nangaritense was described by Thomas B. Croat and published in Aroideana 44: 430 in 2021. The epithet nangaritense is formed from Nangaritza with the Latin place-name ending -ense, meaning “from” or “of” Nangaritza.

Still squeaking after all these days!
Size: Jumbo, Style: Beef
My power chewer GSPs usually wreck all "tough" toys in less than an hour, especially if they squeak. These seem pricey but I can say it's held up really well. After about three weeks, it's still hanging in there! The stripes are worn off but the squeaker still squeaks and that's what it's all about.

Long lasting scent and has not been destroyed by my heavy chewer.
Size: Jumbo, Style: Bacon
My medium puppy loves this ball. She already has the smaller size but appears to enjoy the challenge of catching the large one. An added benefit is it's easier for me to win it back when we fight (play fighting) for it. The scent really lasts. I've had the smaller version for a few months and the scent is still there. Does it really smell like bacon? Not to my nose but the puppy thinks it's awesome. The ball itself is really tough. The pup can destroy a tennis ball in a day. Except for a few teeth marks these balls are holding together great.

Worth every penny—my beagle is obsessed
Size: Medium, Style: Cheddar Cheese, Size: Medium, Style: Cheddar Cheese
No dog toy is indestructible if you have a hound or a pit. I happen to have a combination of both. This toy is the best $12 you could possibly spend for a dog that likes to “kill” their toys. The only reason I’m buying more is because I keep losing them. My dog is a rescue. She’s half beagle, a quarter boxer, and a quarter pit bull. She’s a tiny fire-cracker and I lover her to pieces. And she loves tennis balls to pieces. Literally. She adores tennis balls, squeaky toys, and food. She will absolutely try to surgically extract the squeaker from any toy she gets because she has a high prey-drive. These balls last usually at least a week before she manages to dislodge the squeaker or puncture the squeaking mechanism, but I still have one I got about six months ago that has the paint worn off and it still squeaks. This ball literally has everything. It squeaks, it bounces pretty high, it looks like a real tennis ball so my girl recognizes them as “toy” immediately, and they smell good. These balls in particular last forever. I got her a can of regular tennis balls and she had them in four pieces within 10 minutes or less, which is not healthy for her because she likes to eat the pieces. For this dog toy, I have never seen her crack it. She’s pushed the squeaker inside of exactly one of them so far, and it stayed inside the ball. Much safer than a toy that she can possibly ingest. The toys come in several colors, but it’s not just to make them look cute and colorful. The colors correspond to flavors, as each of the balls has a different scent. I’ve sniffed them and noticed there’s a mild food smell beneath the rubber scent. I can tell that dogs really do get a kick out of the “flavors.” I’ve taken these to the dog park and all the dogs want the Playology tennis ball, even if we have other generic balls flying around. My dog even has favorites. We have a muscle-head pit bull/staffy mix at the park who is a giant meat-ball. He got his hands on one of these and he wasn’t even able to break it open for at least 20 minutes of deliberate chewing. My girl’s favorite “flavor” for a long time was beef (the red one). The blue “peanut butter” flavor is the easiest one to find in stores. She was obsessed with a purple one for a while, apparently it was bacon flavor. I couldn’t find that one! I saw that Amazon has an orange “cheese” flavor and knew she’d love it. She’s obsessed. I really wanted to leave this review to convince people to invest in this product. Your dog will be so happy, and this company made something great. I’m worried because I went on their website yesterday and they had only one or two colors available. I don’t want them to stop making this amazing toy. I hope they don’t lose business because their product is TOO durable!! If they make more flavors, or maybe make some multi-dog (tug ropes?) or similar, I’ll definitely continue to be a customer. Please keep making these awesome tennis balls!

Not Squeakable for Mini/Toy Aussies
Size: Medium (VALUE 2-Pack), Style: Chicken
Very durable and good squeaker. However, too large and hard for my Mini Aussies to squeak. My Aussies love their squeaky toys, unfortunately not this one.
