The Philodendron scandens, also known as the heart vine, is a climbing or trailing plant native to the tropical forests of Central and South America, prized for its soft, shiny tender green heart-shaped leaves. Its flexible stems and cordate leaves create a romantic and natural effect that suits any setting — cascading from a shelf, hanging like a curtain from a support, or forming a leafy cloud in a hanging planter.

Its exceptional tolerance to low light and rapid growth make it one of the most versatile trailing plants in the decorative trailing plants collection and the low-light plants selection.

Which Philodendron variety to choose?

The Philodendron genus includes dozens of species with very distinct shapes. Here’s how to place the Philodendron scandens among the references in the Philodendron collection — to choose between a Philodendron and a Monstera, as both genera often share the same locations and uses:

  • Philodendron scandens (this plant) — shiny tender green cordate leaves, very flexible trailing or climbing habit. The most versatile and easiest to care for in the range.
  • Philodendron Birkin — dark green foliage with fine white stripes, compact upright habit. The choice for precise graphic appeal and a more structured form.
  • Philodendron melanochrysum — large velvety dark green leaves with light veins, climbing habit. The choice for spectacular XXL foliage and rare velvety texture.
  • Philodendron White Princess — white and green variegated foliage, upright habit. The choice for striking variegation and very graphic leaves.
  • Philodendron Diamond Variegata — elegant green and cream marbling. The choice for softer, more natural variegation.
  • Philodendron Pedatum — spectacularly cut foliage, climbing habit, large size. The choice for a very architectural tropical effect in a large space.

Light & placement

Philodendron scandens is one of the few tropical plants that truly tolerates low light — a rare asset that makes it the ideal solution for dark rooms and corners without direct windows where most tropicals refuse to thrive.

  • Light: indirect to partial shade — tolerates shade, just avoid direct sunlight which burns the leaves.
  • Locations: bedroom, bathroom, office, dimly lit hallway — anywhere few plants survive.
  • Temperature: 15 to 27 °C, tolerates moderate fluctuations.

When hanging near a window, grow it trailing — on a moss pole in a less bright corner, grow it climbing to enjoy its fast growth and quickly cover a wall or shelf.

Watering & care

Philodendron scandens prefers a slightly moist but never soggy substrate — let the top 3 to 5 centimeters dry out between waterings, a rule valid for most indoor tropical plants.

  • Frequency: about once a week in spring-summer, every two weeks in winter.
  • Drainage: essential — use a pot with drainage holes and well-draining substrate.
  • Humidity: occasionally mist the foliage to replicate the tropical atmosphere.
  • Fertilizer: a liquid fertilizer for green plants diluted once a month in spring and summer.
  • Pruning: pinch stems regularly to encourage branching and a bushier habit.

Philodendron scandens roots very easily in water — cut a stem with a node, place it in a glass of water, and roots appear in 2 to 3 weeks, just as described for tropical plant cuttings.

Decor ideas & plant pairings

The flexibility and fast growth of Philodendron scandens make it an ideal structural plant for hanging arrangements — it quickly fills empty spaces and adds volume in the darkest corners.

  • For a very graphic trio hanging arrangement, pair Philodendron scandens with a Pothos and a Monstera adansonii — the heart-shaped leaves of scandens, the marbled leaves of Pothos, and the perforated leaves of Monstera create three very complementary textures in the same green palette.
  • On a moss pole in a dim corner, let Philodendron scandens climb a moss pole — its tolerance to partial shade makes it one of the few plants to quickly cover a wall or shelf in less sunny spaces.
  • For a contrast foliage pairing, place it alongside a Calathea Lancifolia — the smooth, shiny cordate leaves of Philodendron contrast with the elongated, spotted leaves of Calathea for a very dynamic tropical composition.
  • In a macramé or natural fiber decorative pot, the trailing stems of Philodendron scandens create a natural cascading effect that is very elegant — choose a hanging decorative pot in white ceramic or terracotta to highlight the softness of the tender green foliage.

Verdeia Tips

  • Pinch stems regularly for a bushier habit: left unpruned, Philodendron scandens produces long, sparsely branched stems — pinching the tips encourages new lateral shoots and a dense, generous silhouette that is much more decorative.
  • Choose your growing style from the start: trailing in a hanging planter for an elegant cascading effect, or climbing on a moss pole for larger leaves and more pronounced fenestrations — both styles give very different results and the decision is made from the beginning.
  • Propagate regularly to thicken the plant: cut the longest stems, replant them directly in the mother plant’s pot — within a few weeks, new shoots emerge and the plant becomes much fuller and more voluminous.

Quality Assurance Lacking
Color: White, Size: 15.7 Inches
The first set I ordered was great; super easy to install, no issues. The second set I ordered the holes on the bottom of the shelves did not match up with the holes on the bar that secures the shelves to the wall so it was impossible to attach the shelves correctly. I'm still trying to figure out a solution. TO SUMMARIZE: First set perfect; second set unusable

Happy with my purchase
Style: Industrial / Rustic, Style: Industrial / Rustic
These shelves are fantastic! The quality is excellent, assembly was quick and easy, and they look great once installed. They have a much more expensive appearance than their price suggests. I’m very happy with my purchase and would highly recommend them.

Great sturdy shelf, install can be a bit challenging
Style: 3 Tier with Tower Bar, Style: 3 Tier with Tower Bar
The shelf is great and does exactly what I wanted it to do. I will note that the instructions indicate you’re supposed to use a 6 mm drillbit to install the anchors which comes out to about a 15/64 size. I would recommend a quarter inch drillbit because I was really struggling to get those anchors in there. Several folks also said that it’s easiest to install with two people, but you don’t need two people if you have some way to prop the piece up while you’re marking the hole placements to drill (and I would definitely recommend having a level on it the entire time you’re working to make sure that it’s correct). Lastly, it is easiest to put it together first, and then mark the drill holes, put the piece aside and drill and install the anchors, and then screw it in. I will also caution folks to not overtighten the pipe connections, because the pipes will end up in a wonky direction in the end. Overall I am extremely happy with this piece and certainly for the price!!

Easy to put together. Super cute in any room
Style: 3 Tier
I fell in love with these when we were at our kids home and we installed them for them. The way my daughter-in-law decorated them, I loved it. I ordered 3 of them. I ordered a two tier for my office, because the 3 tier was too big, and i have the 3 tier in my bathroom. They look so dang cute and finishes up the wall in those areas. They are sturdy and strong. Super easy to put together. No tools required, except when you need to hang them. It will require two people to hang them. You can put them together in less than 5 minutes. Not super heavy but strong. strong to hold several things on them. I had no parts missing. Everything came packaged very nicely. Very functional. I would definitely recommend.
