What Customers Say

Why Philodendron Needs Specialized Nutrients

Philodendrons, known for their vibrant foliage and robust growth, require a specific blend of nutrients, including nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, to sustain their lush leaves and vigorous growth.

Watering

Philodendrons should be watered deeply but infrequently, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

Light

Philodendrons thrive in bright, indirect light, avoiding direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.

Soil

For Philodendrons, well-draining soil rich in organic matter is ideal.

Additional Tips

Wipe the leaves down occasionally to remove dust, and consider pruning to encourage bushier growth.
