Costa sells the philodendron Birkin for less than $20 for an 8-inch plant at stores like The Home Depot. However, the trendy plant can retail for upwards of $50 on online plant stores, including Costa Farm’s own online shop. Like other philodendrons, the Birkin is a relatively easy plant to care for, as long as you provide it with optimal growth conditions. It prefers its soil slightly moist and plenty of humidity. Place the Birkin in bright indirect light, and it will produce lovely striped leaves that will brighten up any space. Want in? Although the Birkin may not be as affordable as its philodendron siblings or readily available as other variegated houseplants, the unusual plant does have some look-alikes you may want to consider as you wait to get your hands on a Birkin.
