Philodendron Fun Bun House Plant in a 13cm Pot x 1

Philodendron 'Fun Bun' is an unusual house plant which has exotic leaves. Not often seen, this will help to purify the air in an office or home. It is particularly good when placed near electrical equipment such as computers and printers as it filters the air and gives out oxygen during daylight hours.

The Philodendron hails from tropical rainforests in central and south America. It therefore will appreciate some misting of the leaves using water. The climbing species develops aerial roots but this particular plant takes on a shrub appearance. The name comes from the Greek 'phileo', meaning 'love'and 'Dendron', meaning 'tree'
