Its long, narrow leaf segments radiate outward from the central stem, creating an airy, skeletal appearance that resembles a cross between a fern and a palm. The delicate-looking foliage gives this plant incredible texture while maintaining the lush tropical character Philodendrons are known for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eA natural climber, 'Tortum' becomes even more impressive when given a moss pole, trellis, or other vertical support. As the plant climbs and matures, its leaves can become larger and increasingly dramatic. Despite its unusual, collector-worthy appearance, 'Tortum' is surprisingly straightforward to care for, making it an excellent choice for both experienced collectors and anyone looking to branch out into more unusual tropical houseplants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3–6 feet or more indoors with support\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpread:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2–3 feet\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHabit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Climbing, Vining\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExposure:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium to Bright Indirect Light\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlant Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tropical Houseplant\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"auto\"\u003eWhy You'll Love It:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncredible Fern-Like Foliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deeply divided leaves create an airy, almost skeletal silhouette.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnique Tropical Texture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Its narrow leaf segments stand out beautifully among broader-leaved houseplants.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBeautiful Mature Growth:\u003c\/strong\u003e Foliage becomes larger and more impressive as the plant climbs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollector Favorite:\u003c\/strong\u003e An uncommon Philodendron with an instantly recognizable appearance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSurprisingly Easy Care:\u003c\/strong\u003e Its exotic looks don't require exceptionally complicated maintenance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eWhether climbing a moss pole as a dramatic statement plant or adding texture to a collection of rare aroids, \u003cstrong\u003ePhilodendron 'Tortum'\u003c\/strong\u003e offers one-of-a-kind foliage and plenty of tropical personality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"qMYqUG_convSearchResultHighlightRoot\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"text-token-text-primary w-full focus:outline-none has-data-writing-block:pointer-events-none [\u0026amp;:has([data-writing-block])\u0026gt;*]:pointer-events-auto R6Vx5W_threadScrollVars scroll-mb-[calc(var(--scroll-root-safe-area-inset-bottom,0px)+var(--thread-response-height))] scroll-mt-[calc(var(--header-height)+min(200px,max(70px,20svh)))]\" dir=\"auto\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text-base my-auto mx-auto pb-8 [--thread-content-margin:var(--thread-content-margin-xs,calc(var(--spacing)*4))] @w-sm\/main:[--thread-content-margin:var(--thread-content-margin-sm,calc(var(--spacing)*6))] @w-lg\/main:[--thread-content-margin:var(--thread-content-margin-lg,calc(var(--spacing)*16))] px-(--thread-content-margin)\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"[--thread-content-max-width:40rem] @w-lg\/main:[--thread-content-max-width:48rem] mx-auto max-w-(--thread-content-max-width) flex-1 group\/turn-messages focus-visible:outline-hidden relative flex w-full min-w-0 flex-col agent-turn\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"flex max-w-full flex-col gap-4 grow\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\" class=\"min-h-8 text-message relative flex w-full flex-col items-end gap-2 text-start break-words whitespace-normal outline-none keyboard-focused:focus-ring [.text-message+\u0026amp;]:mt-1\" tabindex=\"0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"flex w-full flex-col gap-1 empty:hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"fbskMG_root LR5Y_W_content markdown prose dark:prose-invert wrap-break-word w-full light markdown-new-styling\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"auto\" class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\"\u003e\n\u003cspan role=\"text\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhilodendron 'Tortum' Basic Care: Easy to Medium\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWatering:\u003c\/strong\u003e Water when the top \u003cstrong\u003e1–2 inches\u003c\/strong\u003e of soil feel dry.
