Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium

Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium is a green heartleaf Philodendron with slim flexible vines and glossy cordate leaves that taper to a pointed tip. The stems can trail from a hanging pot, extend along a surface or climb when aerial roots find support.

The leaves are usually medium to dark green, cordate at the base and pointed at the tip. Young plants make smaller leaves on loose stems, while older vines can produce broader leaves when warmth, root health and upward growth stay steady.

Glossy pointed leaves on flexible green vines

  • Glossy green leaves with a cordate base and pointed tip.
  • Flexible stems can trail, cascade or climb when given a pole, plank or trellis.
  • Long vines can be shortened above a node to encourage side shoots.
  • Visible nodes make stem cuttings and pruning cuts easy to place.
  • Several cuttings in one pot can produce denser growth from the base.

From juvenile heart leaves to broader climbing foliage

Philodendron hederaceum is an epiphytic climber in Araceae, the aroid family, with a broad native range from Mexico through Tropical America. Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium is native from Mexico to Honduras and grows as a climber in the wet tropical biome.

Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium has glossy green leaves, pointed tips and flexible vining stems. The epithet oxycardium refers to the pointed heart shape of the leaf blade.

Steady care for green heartleaf Philodendron

  • Light: Place in bright indirect light for tighter internodes; it tolerates softer light but may grow longer, thinner vines.
  • Substrate: A loose aroid mix gives the fleshy roots oxygen and reduces the risk of wet-root yellowing.
  • Watering: Water when the upper mix has dried, then let excess water leave the pot completely.
  • Temperature: Keep above 18 °C for steady growth and avoid cold glass or draughts.
  • Humidity: Moderate indoor humidity is usually suitable, but very dry air can make new tips smaller or slower to open.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots have filled the pot, using a container with drainage and only a modest size increase.
  • Fertilizing: Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced houseplant fertiliser; steady green vines do not need heavy feeding.
  • Propagation: Stem cuttings root from nodes, especially when each cutting has at least one healthy leaf and one visible node.
  • Semi-hydroponics: The plant can adapt to inert or mineral substrates if roots are transitioned carefully and kept oxygenated.
  • Placement: Place it where the vines have room to trail or climb, away from cold air movement and harsh direct sun.
  • Climbing setup: A pole, plank or trellis lets the stems climb and can encourage broader leaves on established vines.
  • Maintenance: Cut long stems above a node to encourage new side shoots; rooted cuttings can be planted back into the pot for denser growth.
  • Growth rate: Growth is usually moderate to fast in warmth, bright indirect light and a loose, evenly managed root zone.

Bare stems, yellow leaves and node pests

  • Leggy growth: Usually linked to low light or long unsupported stems; prune and move to brighter indirect light.
  • Yellow leaves near the base: Check for overwatering, blocked drainage or old compacted substrate.
  • Small leaves on older vines: Add support or prune back to a stronger node if trailing stems have become too long.
  • Brown tips: Look at watering consistency, salt buildup and dry air before changing several conditions at once.
  • Pest clusters at nodes: Inspect under leaves and along stems, especially where vines overlap in a dense hanging pot.

Safety

This heartleaf Philodendron contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals. Keep it away from pets that chew plants and avoid touching your eyes after pruning or handling cut stems.

Published variety and pointed leaf name

Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium was published as Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium (Schott) Croat in World Checklist and Bibliography of Araceae in 2002. The variety is based on the earlier name Philodendron oxycardium Schott. Philodendron comes from Greek roots for fondness and tree, hederaceum refers to ivy-like growth, and oxycardium combines pointed with heart.

Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium brings glossy green heart-shaped leaves to a flexible vine that can stay trailing or climb into broader, more mature growth.

Anker 8 in 1 USB Hub excellent choice!
Style: 8-in-1
I’m always expecting more for my laptop power supply than it can do. I bought this hub because I needed powered connections not only to reduce the strain on my power supply but also help them operate more effectively. The Anker USB hub 8 in 1 solved the dilemma, highly recommend.

It does exactly what's advertised, which is perform poorly
Style: 8-in-1
1 star because it does exactly what's advertised if you scrutinize the listing, but what it does is so mind numbingly stupid nobody would assume it's this poor of a product. It comes with a stand alone power input, but to use it properly you need an additional USBC power supply to feed into it, and oh yeah also most of the USBC ports deliver low power, and the USBA ports deliver no power. This is like a weird peripheral stuck in a time warp torn between 1998 and the modern day. Nobody is asking for this and the subtlety of how dumb this design is is reflected by the "Frequently returned item" disclaimer. Whoever product managed this needs to rethink their career

Worked fine.
Style: 8-in-1
When I tried to plug in our new backup hard drive, I got a message saying something like "USB power exceeded." Bought this, plugged it in, attached the hard drive, no problems since.

Need power AND data? You'll need a second power supply.
Style: 8-in-1
If you only need to connect peripherals like an external drive to your computer or tablet and provide power to the peripheral devices, then this hub should work for you. Please note that it WILL NOT provide pass-through power to your computer or tablet without adding an additional power source. Read on if you feel this may apply to you. I purchased this Anker hub for the very specific purpose of connecting my DSLR camera to the Cascable App on my 4th generation iPad Air. This allows my clients to preview their portraits on a larger screen during a photoshoot. My hope was, that out of the box, the hub would connect my camera and iPad (which it did) as well as charge my iPad throughout an entire day of work. Unfortunately the product description provided by Anker does not clearly state that pass-through power to your laptop or tablet is only possible by connecting an additional power supply to the PD in port (USB-C) which is located next to the DC power port that connects to the included power supply. It's by no means an elegant solution, but it gets the job done. UPDATE: this is now addressed by amazon in the "About this item" section. Fortunately I had a spare 65W USB power adapter that I was able to connect to the PD port and get power to my iPad. If not I would have to buy that additional piece of equipment to make this work for my needs. My thanks to others who have taken the time to mention this in their reviews - saving me the frustration of sending this back.
