Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’ 69686

Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’, still widely known in cultivation as Philodendron 69686, develops deeply three-lobed leaves with a long, narrow central lobe and slim side lobes spreading from the upper part of the blade.

This cultivated hybrid has unknown original provenance and was formally published under the cultivar name Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’; 69686 remains widely used as its collection and trade reference. Mature growth carries short internodes, long cataphylls, dark green petioles and semi-glossy divided blades. As the stem climbs, the leaves can gain size and show the narrow-lobed shape more clearly.

Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’ leaf shape and growth habit

  • Leaf shape: Deeply three-lobed blades with a long central lobe and narrow, spreading lateral lobes.
  • Growth habit: Scandent vine with short internodes and aerial roots along the climbing stem.
  • Name note: Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’ is the cultivar name; 69686 is the collection and trade reference.
  • Leaf texture: Mature blades are dark green, semi-glossy and firm-textured.

How Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’ leaves mature

Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’ was found in the Roberto Burle Marx collection and introduced into cultivation in the United States by Bette Waterbury.

A settled specimen can produce longer petioles, thicker stems and better-defined lobes than a juvenile plant. The narrow central lobe becomes the dominant part of the blade, while the side lobes sit at a wide angle near the base.

Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’ support and climbing care

  • Support: Add a moss pole, plank, or textured stake early so aerial roots can attach as the stem lengthens.
  • Light: Give bright filtered light. Direct sun can mark the leaf surface, while very dim placement slows leaf size development.
  • Watering: Water when roughly the upper 25–35% of the pot has dried. The roots need moisture with air around them, not a constantly wet pot.
  • Substrate: Use a chunky aroid mix with bark, perlite, coco chips, pumice, or similar mineral pieces so roots can breathe between waterings.
  • Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity helps new lobed leaves unfurl cleanly during active growth.
  • Temperature: Keep it warm, ideally around 18–28°C, and protect it from cold draughts and chilled windows.
  • Repotting: Move it up one pot size when roots fill the container or the plant dries too quickly after watering.
  • Fertilizing: Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced houseplant fertilizer, avoiding heavy doses on dry roots.
  • Propagation: Propagate from stem cuttings with at least one node; aerial-root sections usually establish fastest.
  • Pruning: Trim long or uneven stems above a node if you need to control height or encourage a cleaner climbing shape.
  • Semi-hydroponics: Suitable for mineral or semi-hydro setups if the cutting or rooted plant is transitioned gradually and the crown stays above the reservoir line.

Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’ leaf and root problems

  • Small new leaves: Usually linked to weak light, no climbing surface, or an underfed root system. Improve light and give the aerial roots something to attach to.
  • Yellow lower leaves: Check the root zone first. A dense or wet mix can hold too much water around the lower stem.
  • Damaged new growth: If leaves tear while opening, raise humidity slightly and keep the support lightly moist during active root attachment without keeping the pot constantly wet.
  • Stem lean: A larger plant can become top-heavy. Secure the stem loosely before it pulls away from its support.

Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’ contains irritating calcium oxalate crystals and should be kept away from pets. Wear gloves when cutting stems if your skin reacts easily to aroid sap.

Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’ etymology and cultivar history

The genus name Philodendron comes from Greek roots meaning “tree-loving”. Philodendron ‘Bette Waterbury’ was formally published as a cultivar name by T.B. Croat in Aroideana in 2022, honouring Bette Waterbury, the first President of the International Aroid Society.

Best diaper/traveling bag!!
Color: Desert, Size: Large
Absolutely LOVE this bag!! The fabric of the bag was better than I even expected. It’s super soft, comfortable, easy to wipe down, has plenty of storage, sturdy even without stuffing it full, and is the perfect bag! It feels nice and thick without it being heavy. The zipper is also very durable and isn’t cheap feeling compared to other brands. I will definitely be ordering more in the future even to use for just traveling. I switched from a book bag diaper bag style to this bag and I feel like it holds even more! Plus, I love that you can expand this bag!! You won’t regret buying this one!!

My new travel bag!
Color: Chocolate, Size: Large
I love this bag. It will be my new travel bag, replacing my back pack. It has lots of pockets and looks fashionable. I love that it’s expandable. It will be helpful for those trips where I seems to bring back more than I originally packed. 🤭. The shoulder straps are long enough to give you adequate space to carry on your shoulder. I also live that it has a strap to put on that handle of your luggage. The size is perfect for fitting under the seat in front of you when flying. If it holds up during my next trip I will definitely return to purchase other colors. Great bag for the price!

10/10 favorite bag of all time.
Color: Chocolate, Size: Large
LOVE this bag so much!! I use it for work and it fits my change of clothes, lunch box, water bottle, headphones, book, and a little extra. It fits everything you need with so many organizing pockets and tons of room, zipper is great, accessibility is great etc etc. It's nylon-ish feeling in terms of material, and washable which I love. Would recommend this as a dupe to baggu as well. I also love the chocolate color, my favorite!

Great versatile bag!
Color: Black, Size: Large
This tote bag is remarkable in that it’s very nice looking and so lightweight with many great pockets. It is expandable as advertised. The strap that makes it easy to attach to luggage strollers is an example of its versatility. I’m thrilled with this item’s design and comfort afforded with the wide straps and ease of expansion.
