TIMELINE
May 30/21: Philodendron 002 was one of my wish list plants and I came across one at a fantastic price. This variety is also known as a Philodendron Birkin. It’s a beautiful houseplant with gorgeous variegation in the leaves. The variegation is a genetic mutation so sometimes the leaves eventually revert back to a solid green colour. I’ll enjoy the variegation as long as it lasts but I’ll continue to love this plant even if it reverts back.
Jun 19/21: Philodendron 002 wasn’t in great shape when I got it but overall it seemed pretty healthy.

Sep 18/21: Not sure if it’s that noticeable in photos but I think Philodendron 002 has grown quite a bit since June.
