Philodendron hastatum, commonly known as Silver Sword, is a striking vining aroid admired for its elongated, arrow-shaped leaves with a silvery sheen that adds a modern, metallic touch to any indoor space. Its climbing habit makes it perfect for trellises, moss poles, or hanging displays, providing lush vertical interest.
This plant thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate moderate light conditions. It prefers well-draining soil and moderate watering, allowing the top layer to dry slightly between waterings. Toxic to pets if ingested, so keep safely out of reach of cats and dogs.
