Philodendron 'Gabby' (Variegated Heartleaf) 2”

A rare, collector-grade variegated heartleaf Philodendron — each leaf a one-of-a-kind canvas of cream, chartreuse, and deep green.

Philodendron hederaceum 'Gabby' is a highly sought-after variegated mutation of the classic heartleaf Philodendron, prized for its unpredictable, high-contrast variegation. No two leaves are alike — patterns range from half-moon splits to full sectoral bleaching, speckled mint, and creamy white marbling against a rich, velvety green base.

A vining grower with a vigorous constitution, 'Gabby' rewards attentive collectors with increasingly expressive foliage as the plant matures. Unlike many unstable variegated forms, 'Gabby' tends to hold its variegation reliably when given bright, indirect light — making it as dependable as it is stunning.

This listing is for the exact plant shown. All plants are shipped established, rooted, and acclimated.

Care Guide

• Light: Bright, indirect light. Variegation intensity is directly tied to light levels — avoid low light, which causes reversion to green. No direct sun.
• Water: Allow the top 1–2 inches of soil to dry between waterings. Reduce frequency in winter. Well-draining mix is essential.
• Humidity: Prefers 60–80% humidity. Thrives with a humidifier or pebble tray; tolerates average household humidity with proper airflow.
• Temperature: 65–85°F (18–29°C). Protect from drafts and temps below 55°F.
• Soil: Chunky, aroid mix — perlite, orchid bark, and coco coir blend recommended.
• Fertilizer: Balanced liquid fertilizer (e.g., 20-20-20) at half strength, every 2–4 weeks during active growth (spring–summer).
• Potting: Prefers to be slightly root-bound. Repot in spring when roots circle the base.
• Toxicity: Toxic to pets and humans if ingested. Keep out of reach of children and animals.
