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 and wipe leaves regularly to remove dust. 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 1-2 inches of 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. A high quality potting mix with some added perlite and/or orchid bark would be perfect.
Fertilizer:Philodendrons are not heavy feeders, but will benefit from a balanced houseplant fertilizer every month during the spring and summer.
