Plant Care

Light Requirements: Provide bright, indirect light. Avoid prolonged exposure to strong direct sunlight, which can scorch the foliage.

Water Requirements: Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil begin to dry. Water thoroughly and allow excess water to drain completely. Avoid constantly soggy soil.

Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced houseplant fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer. Reduce feeding during fall and winter.

Soil: Use a chunky, well-draining aroid mix containing potting soil, orchid bark, and perlite.

Temperature: Prefers temperatures around 65–85°F. Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below about 50°F.

Pet Safety: Toxic to cats and dogs if ingested.

Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity and benefits from good airflow.

Growth Habit: An upright to climbing tropical Philodendron with elongated, lobed heart-shaped leaves and striking orange-colored stems.
