Thaumatophyllum bipinnatifidum

Thaumatophyllum bipinnatifidum is a large self-heading aroid with long petioles, glossy green blades and deeply divided leaves that become more dramatic as the plant matures. It develops a thick ageing stem, a broad root system and a wide spread, so the plant needs space and a stable container from an early stage.

This South American species grows as a scrambling shrub in seasonally dry tropical habitats. In a pot, it builds a broad base with strong leaf divisions, firm petiole angles and a heavier ageing stem.

Large divided leaves on Thaumatophyllum bipinnatifidum

  • Leaf shape: Large glossy green blades develop deep cuts and rounded lobes on mature growth.
  • Stem habit: The self-heading stem can lean or extend as the plant gains height and weight.
  • Roots: Adventitious roots may form along older stems and help anchor the plant in a broad pot.
  • Container behaviour: Mature plants become wide and heavy, so pot stability matters as much as root space.
  • Texture: Firm, smooth leaves sit on long upright petioles and create a strongly divided aroid outline.

How the scrambling stem develops

Young plants start with simpler leaves and a tighter shape. With maturity, the blades expand, the lobes deepen and the stem becomes more visible. Older plants can develop a broad base with aerial roots, especially when humidity and root space are steady. A wide pot gives the stem and roots enough room to settle securely.

The species comes from parts of Bolivia, Brazil, Argentina and nearby South America, where it is associated with seasonally dry tropical conditions. In cultivation, it responds best to strong filtered light, drainage, warmth and watering that lets the root zone dry and reoxygenate between soakings.

Care for a mature Thaumatophyllum bipinnatifidum

  • Light: Bright filtered light keeps petioles firmer and reduces stretched growth. Avoid harsh direct sun on leaves grown indoors.
  • Watering: Water thoroughly, then let the upper part of the mix dry before watering again. A constantly wet pot can damage thick roots and the stem base.
  • Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity keeps new leaves expanding cleanly, especially while large blades are unfurling.
  • Temperature: Keep warm and protected from cold draughts. Cold wet substrate can quickly stress the roots.
  • Substrate: Use a chunky aroid mix with bark, fibre, perlite or mineral particles so water drains through while the roots still receive even moisture.
  • Pot choice: Choose a broad, heavy pot with drainage holes. Repot when the roots fill the container or the plant becomes unstable.
  • Fertilising: Feed lightly during active growth. Large leaves use nutrients steadily, but excess fertiliser can mark roots in a confined pot.
  • Propagation: Propagation is usually done from stem sections with viable nodes by experienced growers; large cuts need warmth, hygiene and patience.
  • Semi-hydroponics: Mineral substrates can work for established, well-rooted plants if the root system is adapted gradually and the reservoir is kept clean.
  • Pruning: Remove old yellowing leaves close to the stem with clean tools. Cut into the main stem only for propagation or planned size control.
  • Placement: Give the plant space around the leaf spread and keep heavy petioles away from regular contact.
  • Growth rate: Growth is moderate to strong in warmth and bright filtered light, then slower during cooler or darker periods.

Troubleshooting broad aroid growth

  • Yellowing leaves: Dense substrate, repeated overwatering or cold roots can cause lower leaves to yellow and soften.
  • Brown edges: Irregular watering, dry air or salt buildup can mark the broad leaf margins.
  • Leaf spots: Wet leaves combined with still air can lead to spotting, especially on older foliage.
  • Weak stems: Low light can stretch the petioles and make the plant less stable in its pot.
  • Pests: Check the undersides of leaves and petiole bases for thrips, spider mites, mealybugs and scale.

Safety for this self-heading aroid

Thaumatophyllum bipinnatifidum contains irritating calcium oxalate crystals typical of many aroids. Keep it away from pets and children who may chew leaves, stems or roots.

Botanical notes on Thaumatophyllum bipinnatifidum

This South American aroid has large divided leaves, a thick self-heading stem and a long-term container size that calls for a broad pot, steady warmth and a freely draining root zone.

Mature plants develop layered divided foliage on long petioles, with a solid ageing stem at the centre of the plant.

I Love Luciano “Lucky” Beneventi
Format: Kindle
Another 5 star read from this amazing author! Man do I love going back to Kroydon Hills! I love these characters so much! Since day one with Nat and Ryan! And to continue reading about their kids! It’s the best. This book was heartbreaking but in a good way. Being with some one with a sickness is not easy. It really comes down to “in sickness and in health” and lucky was there every step of the way. Loving someone for the rest of your life.

I finally decided to use Amazon's Kindle trade-in program to trade-in my 2nd generation dinosaur Kindle for some newer tech. While my old Kindle still did work and had been a workhorse for years, the battery was not what it was, it was heavier, and the lack of back-lit light for nighttime reading was overdue for an upgrade. This Kindle is very lightweight compared to my old Kindle, even with a case (Moko, Origami Slim Shell), which I purchased as an accessory item. It is almost as light as my Galaxy S8+. The touch screen works well, which is another feature I did not have previously. I can say my only complaint here is there is little room on the sides of the case to rest your thumbs when holding the device, which sometimes causes a page turn accidentally while reading. This normally happens when reading in bed, but it's not a huge issue. The display is easy to read and I really like the paperwhite design of the display. Also, I very much like the device is backlit with a good range on adjusting the brightness as needed. I don't generally read outside much, so, for now, I have not encountered any issues. I have had the device about a month and have not needed to charge it since my first charging. I usually keep it on airplane mode and the battery is going strong. Very happy with that. The one complaint I have had with this device - and it is not the device itself, but with Amazon - the charging cable (micro-USB) lacks a power adapter enabling you to charge the device from an outlet. This was not the case with my 2nd generation Kindle as it came with the full cable and power adapter. Then, Amazon conveniently recommends you purchase said adapter as "official OEM" adapter for Kindle devices for the whopping price of $19.99. This is a complete rip-off, in my opinion. The adapter should come with the device, but if you are going to sell it separately, you do not need to over-charge for it by this ridiculous amount. You can find another generic adapter for a reasonable price. Just be sure to make sure it matches the specs required for charging the device. Booo - bad form Amazon! Even with the "missing" adapter, I am happy with the product and the value and price paid. I also very much recommend taking advantage of the trade-in program Amazone offers if you can. I was able to get a $5 credit for my old Kindle and 25% off toward future Kindle product. I also pulled the trigger on this sale during Prime Days so the device was further discounted. This was a great time to upgrade and save money.

Worth the money (especially if you wait for a Prime Day sale!)
Digital Storage Capacity: 8 GB, Offer Type: Ad-Supported, Color: Black, Option: Without Kindle Unlimited
I've had my paperwhite for about a month now, so I guess it's as good of time as any to properly review it. This is my first paperwhite. I got a b&n Nook Color back in 2010 for Christmas, which has served me really well over the years. However, it reached the point recently where it wouldn't hold a charge and so I found myself in the market for a new e-reader. I was drawn to the paperwhite because it was waterproof and would hold a long charge. I was a little leery about the black-and-white only nature of the paperwhite, especially as my previous ereader was in color, but so far it hasn't been an issue. I used to read comics on my Nook but haven't read digital comics in a few years, preferring print. This might be something someone who does read books with illustrations would want to take into consideration. I really appreciate the long battery life of the paperwhite. I've had it for about a month and have only had to charge it once (and it had only gotten down to about 48% so I probably could have pushed it further than I did). I've been able to read several books with the battery barely being effected. The biggest draw on battery life seems to be using the store or trying to use the rudimentary Web browser. I've been very impressed by the light, too. My Nook was impossible to read on in some lights, which hasn't been an issue at all with the paperwhite. I usually have the brightness adjusted to about the halfway point for casual reading, and brighten the screen if necessary. The brightest option COULD be a little brighter, but that's nitpicky. The device itself is VERY lightweight and portable. I have dvd cases that weigh more. My phone certainly weighs more. It's not too big or bulky to hold; I can easily hold it with just one hand. The only draw back I've really noticed is that the touchscreen is a little sensitive. Sometimes when I'm trying to scroll through my library, I end up selecting a title I wasn't trying to open. Other times, I might scroll through several pages by accidently hitting my thumb on the screen when holding the device. Buy this is a very minor inconvenience. Also, I bought the option with "special offers". They in no way to impede my reading experience. The ads show up on the main screen when the device is not in use, or in a small banner along the bottom of the "home" menu. That's it. No ads popping up during your reading.

I bought the Kindle Paperwhite 2018 edition, 8 GB of storage with Special Offers for myself because up until I received it, I've been reading with the Kindle app on my Samsung Galaxy S9 phone instead. While the Kindle app on my phone was great, my eyes were really straining on the smaller screen and I'm a voracious reader. I was looking for something in a larger screen, but won't utilize the other feature and capabilities of a tablet, and beyond Kindle have no use for one at all. Overall, I'm highly impressed with this little Kindle device. I want to start by mentioning the Special Offers, as in all the reviews I read and heard about the device, the Special Offers weren't more than a footnote. They aren't intrusive at all, it's just on the main screen and that's it. They don't interrupt reading at all, and the Kindle Paperwhite personalized my Special Offers based on my reading, Kindle browsing history, and purchases so a lot of the ads that come through are actually interesting to me and in fact one or two of the ads have made me drool enough to purchase whatever book they were trying to peddle. That is definitely a plus, and yet a terrible thing because I AM such a voracious reader and I know I'm going to be spending a lot more money on Kindle books but at least the majority of the ads are tailored to the type of books I enjoy reading. I'm definitely not complaining about the Special Offers, nor will I pay to have them removed when the next ad that is displayed on my Kindle's screen might be a book I might like. Some may find the ads annoying just because it's an ad, but I find it enjoyable and definitely not intrusive in the slightest. The battery life - the Kindle came out of the box at 60% battery life and took virtually no time at all to charge to 100% on my phone's quick charger. I spent from 3 pm until almost 11 pm doing nothing but reading (when I said I'm a voracious reader, I meant it). My Kindle went from 100% battery to only 81% and from 11 pm until 8:30 am, only lost 2% battery. That is absolutely amazing to me and worth every penny I spent on the Kindle. I can't do that with my phone or a tablet; those batteries drain so quickly but this Kindle will last me all day long and still won't need to be charged at night. That's such a huge plus for a reader like me! The light on the Kindle Paperwhite is amazing, and even in my dimly lit room I don't need to have it much above 5 or 6 on the brightness. Although my phone boasts an almost 6" screen, truly the Kindle screen is much larger and thus much easier to read especially with the matte finish. My eyes strain far less on the Kindle even with almost a solid 8 or more hours of nothing but reading. This Kindle screen isn't too large, but it's definitely not too small either, it's just right. It's almost like you have a physical book in your hand, as far as relative size goes, though a little larger than your common paperback. I don't use Audible because I can't pay attention to a book when I'm listening to it being read to me, so the 8 GB of storage (more like close to 6 GB usable), holds plenty of books for me. I only have just a handful downloaded at any one point in time, but even the 10 or so books I have downloaded at once still doesn't take the storage space down anywhere near the 5 GB mark. So 8 GB is more than plenty for just regular printed books if you're like me and suddenly develop a case of A.D.D. when it comes to audiobooks. The speed of the device is just fine too. I won't say it's excellent compared to my Galaxy S9, but that's apples and oranges. For an e-reader the speed is great. There is just a little lag, but not enough to become anything beyond just barely noticeable. It's not annoying at all. It takes maybe a second or so to respond. When turning the page, even reading at a quick pace I'm able to keep up with the story on the next page from where it left off without interruption. The overall build quality is excellent. It is light weight and thinner than I expected. Yes it's plastic, but it doesn't feel cheaply made. It's comfortable to hold in one hand, or two if you like. The only thing I would change about the build is the power button - maybe I'm just used to them being on the right side of the device near the top... but the only thing I would change is the placement of the button. Overall, I'm very satisfied and impressed with my purchase. This was an excellent buy, and my next Kindle purchase is going to be one for a couple other people in my life who read just as voraciously as I do.

Excited to read!
Digital Storage Capacity: 32 GB, Offer Type: Ad-Supported, Color: Black, Option: Without Kindle Unlimited
This review is based on two months of daily use. I purchased a Kindle without really knowing much about them. I have always been against electronic books because I have always enjoyed the feeling of pages in between my fingers. However, circumstances have made me change my beliefs, mostly not having a nightstand with a light, and books can be bulky for a bike traveler like myself. So let me just begin with a couple of negatives. A couple of my favorite features about actual books is able to leaf back through pages and re-read portions that I misremembered, or that I really enjoyed. Reading on a Kindle makes that difficult because "leafing through" could take forever, especially if you don't recall the area in which the passage occurs. I'm also a big highlighter and margin note-taker in books so I can analyze. Although you can highlight with Kindles, for me, it's just not the same. Finally, Kindle's touch screen can be hit or miss - sometimes I will want to go forward, but the page might be back. Load times for the main screen, or cycling through, can be obnoxious. And just looking through Amazon's library to find a book? Forget about it! A lot of the novels on their suggested books, or top sellers, are "adult" novels, or easy reads. It's very difficult to find a book when you just want to discover a new author or title. Now for the benefits - my favorite feature is integrating Good Reads. It tracks my reading, the books I've read, and the books I want to read. Not only that, but it will give me suggestions based on the books I have saved or I have read. That takes care of the Amazon library problem. The backlight and the battery life are phenomenal! I can go a week without charging my Kindle, and I read it for about 90 minutes a day. It might be attributed to my backlight always being fairly low. I don't really see a reason to raise it above a third of the meter. Finally, the Kindle is small enough to fit in the back pocket of jeans. It's lightweight and waterproof. Basically, it's built for travel. As someone who walks and bikes everywhere, it makes reading on a go so much easier than carrying around a bulky or heavy book. I am grateful for this purchase. Even though it isn't an actual book, I look forward to reading on my Kindle, and if I fall in love with a new book I'm reading on my Kindle, I know that it will be worth the $15 to buy the physical copy and collect dust on my bookshelf!
