Philodendron Imperial

Plant Care

• Light: Bright, indirect light. Can tolerate lower light but may grow more slowly and lose some vibrancy.
• Water: Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil feel dry. Keep the soil evenly moist but avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot.
• Temperature: Prefers temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Avoid temperatures below 50°F (10°C).
• Humidity: Thrives in moderate to high humidity. Mist regularly or use a humidity tray to keep the air moist, especially in dry environments.
• Soil: Well-draining, rich potting mix. A general houseplant mix with added perlite works well.
• Fertilizing: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring to summer).
• Pruning: Trim any yellowing or damaged leaves to keep the plant looking neat and encourage new growth.
• Pests: Can attract mealybugs or spider mites. Treat with insecticidal soap if needed.
• Toxicity: Toxic to pets if ingested, so keep out of reach of animals.
