Philodendron squamiferum

Philodendrons are easy to care for plants that can add a tropical touch to any home. Here are some care tips.

Light: Philodendrons prefer bright, indirect light, but can also tolerate low light.

Water: Water the plant thoroughly and allow the top inch of soil to dry out before watering again. Overwatering can lead to root rot.

Soil: Philodendrons prefer well-draining soil that is rich in organic matter.

Temperature: They prefer temperatures between 65-85°F (18-29°C).

Fertilizer: Fertilize the plant once a month during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced fertilizer.

Pruning: Prune any dead or yellowing leaves and stems to encourage new growth.

Propagation: Philodendrons can be easily propagated by stem cuttings in water or soil.

Remember, different varieties may have specific care requirements, so be sure to research your particular species for optimal care.
