The Philodendron 'Brandi' — botanically known as Philodendron brandtianum — is a standout for its striking silver and green mottled foliage that sets it apart from typical green philodendrons. Equally at home trailing from a shelf or climbing a support, it's one of the most versatile and easy-care aroids you can grow. A reliable grower that consistently earns admiration, Brandi is a perfect entry point for collectors and beginners alike.

Alocasia Variegated Frydek Brandie Perry
The plant did not arrive in great shape. However, it was an alocasia and I did not add insulation so this is not on the seller (and we all know alocasia does not travel well anddddd they come back)
From start to finish the transaction was amazing. They gave me a discount for my next order even though I didn't ask for one because I knew the risks, and they continued to answer my questions and help me! Will def order again from them and would encourage others to as well!
