Care

General Maintenance: Ensure your pot has adequate drainage to avoid root rot. Repot every 1-2 years as needed. Trim away any dead leaves as necessary. Can be propagated from stem cuttings.

Temperature: Thrives in normal household temperatures, between 15C-26C. Keep away from drafts and drastic temperature changes.

Light: Can tolerate lower light conditions but will grow fastest in bright indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, as it may scorch the leaves.

Watering: Water thoroughly, then allow the top 2/3 of the soil to dry before watering again. They can benefit from some extra humidity, provided by misting or a pebble tray.

Soil: Any well-draining potting mix.

Fertilizer: Philodendrons are not heavy feeders but will benefit from a balanced houseplant fertilizer every month, during the spring and summer.
