Philodendron mexicanum

Philodendron mexicanum is a wet-tropical climbing species with glossy, arrow-shaped green leaves and red undersides that are especially visible on juvenile growth. As the plant matures, the blades become larger and more defined, with the climbing stem producing aerial roots at the nodes.

Younger leaves show the red-backed colour most clearly, while older foliage develops the broader sagittate outline typical of the species.

  • Leaf shape: Arrow-shaped to hastate blades with a broad base and pointed tip.
  • Leaf colour: Glossy green upper surfaces with red undersides most noticeable on younger leaves.
  • Growth habit: A climbing Philodendron with aerial roots along the stem.
  • Native range: Recorded from Mexico to western Colombia in wet tropical forest conditions.

Philodendron mexicanum care for climbing growth

Give Philodendron mexicanum a moss pole, plank or other vertical support so the stem can attach as it lengthens. Bright indirect light keeps the growth compact and reduces stretched internodes, while harsh direct sun can mark the leaves, especially on softer new growth.

  • Support: A vertical surface gives aerial roots somewhere to attach as the plant produces larger, more defined blades on upright growth.
  • Light: Bright indirect light, with protection from strong direct sun.
  • Water: Water when the upper part of the substrate has dried, then let excess water drain fully.
  • Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity helps new leaves open cleanly, especially during active growth.
  • Substrate: Use a chunky aroid mix with bark, coarse fibre and mineral components so air reaches the roots.
  • Temperature: Keep warm and stable, away from cold windows and cold wet substrate.

Philodendron mexicanum leaf size, roots and pests

  • Small leaves or long gaps between nodes: Usually linked to weak light, missing support or both.
  • Yellowing lower leaves: Check for dense, wet substrate around the roots.
  • Dry new leaves: Increase humidity around active growth and keep watering consistent without leaving the pot waterlogged.
  • Pests: Inspect new leaves, petioles and undersides for thrips, spider mites, mealybugs and scale.

Philodendron mexicanum safety, name and publication

Keep Philodendron mexicanum away from pets and children, as the plant contains calcium oxalate crystals. Sap may irritate sensitive skin.

Heinrich Wilhelm Schott published the genus Philodendron in Wiener Zeitschrift für Kunst 3: 780 in 1829. The genus name comes from Greek-derived roots meaning “tree-loving.” Philodendron mexicanum was described by Adolf Engler in Flora Brasiliensis 3(2): 143 in 1878. The species epithet mexicanum means “Mexican” or “from Mexico.”

Very nice and comfortable!
Color: Pink, Color: Pink
I have carpel tunnel syndrome in both hands, and using a regular mouse hurts my hand. My friend told me to buy an ergonomic mouse, so I said sure. I've never used an ergonomic mouse before or one that is turned on the side like this one. However, I bought this one because of its high ratings. I love this mouse! It's comfortable, easy to use, and has high quality. The color is great too for all of you pink lovers. It comes with a USB cord to charge the mouse. All you need to do to charge it is to attach the cord to your mouse and to your laptop and let it charge. You can also use the mouse while charging it. I read someone else’s review. They said that if the mouse isn’t working or communicating for whatever reason, you can still use it with its USB cord, and the mouse still words. It looks like the company put a lot of thought into making this device, and it’s well worth the cost. I'm glad I bought this; my hands don't hurt anymore, and it’s super unique. When I started using this mouse, it took a little time to get used to using it on its side. I couldn’t fully wrap my hand around it, but I’m getting more used to it and it feels great on my hand. The thumb buttons are for going back to the previous page you were on, or going forward to the next page. The button on the very top of the mouse is for the volume. You can also press it down, but I honestly don’t remember what that part is for. The other side of it is the left and right clicks with the scroll wheel. There’s another button above the scroll wheel also called the DPI button that allows you to quickly adjust the mouse sensitivity. You will also find the charging port on the lower part of the mouse where it divides, and there are several other buttons and the USB receiver on under the mouse for connecting the mouse t to your computer. A user manual comes with this device that guides you through the setup. Shipping was on time and packaged nicely. I give this a 5/5 and recommend this product.

Love it! And... it can be remapped!!!
Color: Purple
Love it!! I'm a Mac user and it's been wonderful. Zero connectivity issues. The size is perfect too, my hand is like 7.5inches I think, and it was just right. What knocked it out of the park is that I was able to get the buttons remapped with Karabiner-Elements, so now I have custom shortcut buttons!!! I also read on Reddit that it can be remapped with AutoHotKey for Windows ;) It's ergonomic, responsive and quiet, and it works great with Bluetooth. Being able to remap it has made it the most perfect and affordable vertical mouse. Hope it lasts forever, we'll see how it holds up over time!

Durable, affordable, definitely buy it
Color: Purple
This fits so comfortably in my hand and I find that the layout of the clicker buttons is more efficient for me than a normal mouse. Tbh I don't use all of the functions but I know she's got more than I utilize. Moves smooth. For someone who has hand mobility issues or injuries (maybe even carpal tunnel?), this might be a better alternative than a normal computer mouse. It's good quality, durable, and I love the color options, I got purple/green with yellow. Super cute and worth the price. My husband got a $100 ergonomic mouse but I was not willing to pay that hefty price. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Happy with them
I'm putting up shelves around my bed for my books, and so far, the first shelf is holding nicely with these brackets. They seem pretty sturdy and were easy to install with the screws and anchors that came with it. I measured out where i wanted the brackets on the board and then screwed them to it. I then held it against the wall and used a level to make sure it was level, then put a screw in the middle bracket to hold it level while i marked the rest of the screw holes. I did this all by myself, but it would've been a lot easier to do with two people. I plan to buy more and put up more shelves
