Philodendron Goeldii
Philodendron Goeldii or the Finger Leaf is a tropical plant native to French Guiana. It was named Thaumatophyllum Spruceanum and moved into the new genus Thaumatophyllum from the Philodendron genus. It is called Finger Leaf because of the growing pattern of its long, clustered leaves. As a houseplant, the Philodendron Goeldii reaches up to eight inches tall and four inches wide when mature. This plant is best placed near a north-facing window to reach its height and width potential.
Basic Care
Philodendron Goeldii thrives in moderate to bright indirect light. You can grow it both indoors and outdoors depending on the weather conditions. Do not expose it to direct sunlight as it can cause the leaves to burn and the plant to die.
Philodendron Goeldii grows the best in the temperature range of 50 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit. The tropical plant can tolerate temperatures slightly lower than 50 degrees Fahrenheit but do not expose it to very cold temperatures.
While the weather may cause the watering frequency to vary, you should typically water your Goeldii when the uppermost ~two inches of soil is dry. Water deeply, allowing it to empty out the draining hole of the pot.
