Philodendron hastatum 'Silver Queen' ('Silver Sword')

Philodendron hastatum 'Silver Queen', also known as 'Silver Sword' in the hobby, is a silver-leaved climbing Philodendron with arrow-shaped juvenile foliage and a metallic silver-green to blue-silver surface. The leaves are smooth, pointed and narrow at first, then can lengthen into a more spear-shaped outline as the plant climbs.

The species Philodendron hastatum is native to south-eastern Brazil, where it grows as a climbing aroid in wet tropical conditions. In cultivation, 'Silver Queen' needs a warm position, an airy root zone and a firm vertical surface so the stem can lengthen without collapsing under its own weight.

Philodendron hastatum 'Silver Queen' silver foliage and climbing growth

  • Foliage: Metallic silver-green to blue-silver leaves with a smooth surface.
  • Leaf shape: Juvenile blades are arrow-shaped and can become longer and more spear-like as the plant matures.
  • Growth habit: Climbing Philodendron with nodes and aerial-root growth along an elongating stem.
  • Support: A pole, plank or board helps the stem stay upright as the leaves lengthen.
  • Indoor character: A fast, vertical-growing aroid with a clear silver foliage effect.

Care for Philodendron hastatum 'Silver Queen'

Philodendron hastatum 'Silver Queen' grows best with bright filtered light, steady warmth and a chunky substrate that does not stay dense around the roots. Good stem support matters early, because the plant climbs from node to node and the silver leaves become more impressive when the growth stays upright.

  • Light: Place Philodendron hastatum 'Silver Queen' in bright filtered light. Harsh direct sun can scorch or dull the pale silver leaf surface.
  • Water: Water when part of the potting mix has dried, then let excess water drain fully.
  • Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity helps new leaves expand smoothly on active climbing stems.
  • Temperature: Keep warm and stable, ideally above 18 °C, and avoid cold draughts or cold wet substrate.
  • Substrate: Use a chunky, fast-draining aroid mix with bark, mineral particles and enough air space around the roots.
  • Pot choice: Use a pot that drains freely and can hold the support securely without tipping.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots fill the pot, the substrate breaks down, or the support no longer sits firmly.
  • Fertilising: Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced houseplant fertiliser at diluted strength.
  • Growth rate: Growth is usually moderate to fast indoors when warmth, light and root aeration are stable.

Philodendron hastatum 'Silver Queen' pruning, propagation and mineral substrates

  • Pruning: Remove damaged leaves or cut back a long stem above a node if the plant needs reshaping.
  • Propagation: Propagate from stem cuttings with at least one node and healthy aerial-root tissue.
  • Semi-hydro: Suitable for mineral or semi-hydro substrates if roots are kept warm, oxygenated and not stagnant.
  • Training: Tie or guide young stems before the internodes harden, so the plant climbs cleanly from the base.

Philodendron hastatum 'Silver Queen' leaf marks, long internodes and pests

  • Long gaps between leaves: Move closer to brighter filtered light if the stem stretches and the leaves stay small.
  • Yellow lower leaves: Check for wet, compacted substrate or a pot that stays damp for too long.
  • Brown patches: Direct sun, dry roots or physical leaf damage can mark the silver surface.
  • Root issues: Slow growth with soft stems or yellowing leaves often points to poor drainage or cold wet roots.
  • Pests: Check new growth, leaf backs and petioles for thrips, spider mites, mealybugs and scale.

Philodendron hastatum 'Silver Queen' toxicity

The leaves and stems of Philodendron hastatum 'Silver Queen' contain insoluble calcium oxalate crystals and should stay out of reach of pets and children.

Philodendron hastatum name origin and publication

Heinrich Wilhelm Schott described the genus Philodendron in 1829 in Wiener Zeitschrift für Kunst, Litteratur, Theater und Mode. The name comes from Greek philo- or philein, meaning loving, and dendron, meaning tree. Philodendron hastatum was described by K. Koch and Sello and published in Index Seminum in Horto Botanico Berolinensi 1854(App.): 7, issued in 1855. The species epithet hastatum means spear-shaped or armed with a spear.

With its blue-silver leaves and climbing growth, Philodendron hastatum 'Silver Queen' is a strong choice for a vertical aroid display.

Non-greasy, light coverage
Color: 1pc, Color: 1pc
I have been using this tinted sunscreen for 2 weeks now, and it has provided the level of sunblock that I need. Living in a high-altitude desert, my fair skin shows sunspots with minutes after sun exposure without sun block. This tinted sunscreen is now part of my daily routine. The pump dispenser allows for an easy application. I use about 2 full pumps for full coverage. This sunscreen has a really nice scent to it as well. It is also not greasy at all, which is very important to me. I have gone to work with just the sunscreen on my skin but usually apply a tinted mineral powder after the sun screen. This is mostly for the tint, as the sunscreen truly does not leave my face shiny or greasy at all. I do want to repeat that this product has also prevented sun spots for me, which is the primary reason I include sunscreen every morning. The tint is light enough that it blends fully, but does provide a nice even tone. Highly recommend this product.

Emgmcp Tinted Sunscreen for Face SPF 50 Broad Spectrum, Hydrating Oil-Free Sheer Tint
Color: 1pc, Color: 1pc
What I ordered: Tinted Sunscreen for Face SPF 50 Broad Spectrum, Hydrating Oil-Free Sheer Tint, No White Cast & Sweat Resistant, Tinted Moisturizer for Natural Glow, Non-Sticky Daily Sun Cream (1pc) What I received: as above (as labeled). This has to be the absolute worst sunscreen I've ever tried. The ingredient listing is incomplete (see my photo) as there is no ingredient to account for the "tint" (at the very least). The only active ingredient (actual sunscreen) is titanium dioxide. Although slightly tinted, it still leaves a light cast even on my pale skin. It's leaves a horribly oily/greasy film on the skin, and it pills horribly. If you care enough about your skin to use a daily sunscreen, it's worth getting a known brand with full ingredient disclosure and proven skin protection. This C-beauty sunscreen is not it. I don't consider this a quality product nor a good value, even at it's nominal cost at the time of my review. I cannot in good conscience recommend this product - it's a huge disappointment.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Color: 1pc
This tinted sunscreen is absolutely fantastic! The SPF 50 broad-spectrum protection keeps my skin safe all day, and the universal tint blends seamlessly with my complexion without leaving a white cast. It feels lightweight, non-greasy, and gives my skin a healthy, natural glow. I love that it simplifies my routine by combining sun protection and a subtle skin-evening tint in one step. It sits so well under makeup- even though makeup isn’t even necessary because this sunscreen evens out your complexion so well. As someone is is a little nervous going bare face, I love having this as an option for going to the pool or beach, and on hot summer days. Definitely a five-star product I’ll keep repurchasing!

Long lasting ,easy to apply, strong sun blocking
Color: 1pc, Color: 1pc
``` I’ve tried a lot of sunscreens over the years, but the Emgmcp Universal Moisturizing Sunscreen with SPF 50 PA+++ stands out. It goes on smoothly—none of that sticky or greasy feeling some sunscreens leave behind—and it actually stays put, even when you’re out and about for hours. I used it for a long day outside and didn’t get burned at all, so the sun protection really does what it promises. The best part? It feels lightweight and comfortable, almost like a moisturizer rather than a typical sunscreen. If you want something that’s easy to apply and genuinely keeps the sun off, this one is worth trying. I’d give it a solid 5 stars. ```
