    Philodendron 'Autumn' is a hybrid self-heading Philodendron. Rather than a climbing vine, the self heading type of Philodendron grows on upright stems that do not need support. Philodendron 'Autumn' in recent years has become a popular houseplant due to it's pretty foliage. The new leaves emerge in colors of bronze and gold and fade to green upon maturing. This plant prefers bright light and high humidity, with a well draining potting medium.
