Plant Care Guide
Light
Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate low light as well. Avoid direct sunlight. This kind of light provides the ideal lighting conditions for healthy growth and balanced variegation.
Water
Prefers soil to partially dry out so check about once a week. Thrives in a moist environment with high humidity. Water less in winter when plant is dormant.
Level of Care
Easy! Just make sure the plant isn't in direct sunlight and don't overwater.
Air Purifying
The NASA Clean Air Study has ranked Philodendrons as one of the most efficient groups of houseplants that remove formaldehyde and other toxins from the air we breathe.
Fertilizer
Feed with a mild liquid, indoor plant fertilizer about once a month during the growing season. Do not fertilize in winter.
Temperature
Prefers warm conditions 65-80°F. Keep away from drafty windows and air conditioners.
Soil
A peaty All-Purpose potting soil with good drainage works best.
Pruning & Propagation
Prune damaged or yellow leaves by cutting to the stem base. To propagate, place stem cuttings with leaves in water until ready to repot.
Pet Friendly
Sorry! Plant contains very sharp calcium oxalate crystals that, when eaten, cause mouth and digestion irritation and possibly more serious problems.
