The Philodendron Birkin used to be very rare and expensive, getting its name from the famous—and also extremely expensive—handbag.

Find a healthy stem on your plant with at least one leaf.

Cut off the stem below a node. A node is where the leaf grows out of the main stem, and where new roots will grow.

Step 1

Step 1

Stick the cutting into potting mix or water—both methods work well so it's up to whichever you prefer!

Make sure the node is buried/under water so the new roots can grow.

Step 2

Step 2

Keep the potting mix damp at all times to promote root development. Or, make sure to top off the water level as needed.

Keep the cutting in bright, indirect light.

Step 3

Step 3

That's it! Now it's a waiting game.
