How Close Can I Plant A Philodenron Bipinnatifidum To The House?

Question

I have an area designated for tropical looking plants, and had a philodenron bipinnatifidum that i want to plant there. It’s within 1.5 meters to the house, and also has a weed mat underneath. I am concerned if the roots are going to cause any structural damage to the house in future?

Answer 1

They aren't known for destructive roots, and it seems that the area is far enough away to be of little concern. I don't see any indication that this could be harmful.
