Philodendron Care Tips
Light Philodendrons thrive in medium to bright indirect light, but will tolerate darker spots as well. Soil Use a well-draining potting mix, such as our Aroid Potting Mix, ideally containing some coco coir, bark and perlite. You can also grow Philodendrons in soil-less mixes like sphagnum moss and perlite or hydroponics. Water Philodendrons like their soil to dry between waterings. Water when the top 3cm of soil are totally dry to the touch. Humidity Most Philodendron, especially the Erubesecens varieties, will thrive in average humidity. However, some of the more tropical and velvety species will require higher humidity to survive. Toxicity All Philodendron are toxic to humans and animals if ingested.
