Hi! Was wondering if anyone else is growing strawberry shake philodendron. I purchased this philodendron from a seller on ebay in January, along with a philodendron giganteum. I was very surprised when they came. In a happy way. I tried researching them on plant files to get a better understanding of these plants but there was not much information there. When my plants were shipped it was very very cold. I paid for a heat pack for the box, but when the box arrived in the two days priority mail takes the plants were cold. Giganteum had 3 leaves and one on the way. Strawberry shake had 2 leaves and one on the way. I thought they were going to be fine, but withing a couple of days Giganteum lost 2 of its leaves. Now the 3rd one is gone and the one on the way has yet to come open. Strawberry shake still has its 2 leaves, but while they are starting to show their "strawberry" variegation they also seem to appear yellow to me. The one on the way on it has yet to open also. I have strawberry shake in a north facing window. Bright light but no direct sunlight. Giganteum is under (but not directly) a fluorescent light. Blinking
