Meet Your Philodendron; Heartleaf Philodendron

  • Top-layer drying cycle

    Keep a consistent cycle where you allow the top layer of soil to dry out slightly between waterings, while ensuring the deeper root zone stays evenly moist but never saturated. Always make sure to pour off any standing water from the saucer so your plant baby's roots aren't sitting in stagnant water. If you're ever torn between watering and waiting, definitely lean toward waiting!

  • Bright, indirect light

    Your Philodendron will absolutely thrive in bright, indirect light near a window. Just be sure to avoid long stretches of harsh, direct midday sun on bare glass, as tissue grown in softer light can burn pretty quickly.

  • Stable room temperature

    Keep your plant in a stable room temperature spot. Be sure to keep it well away from radiators or direct hot air—which can cause sad, crispy edges and sluggish growth—and protect it from chilly direct drafts coming from doors or windows.

  • Appetite:

    Dilute, balanced seasonal feeding

  • Fur-Baby Friendly

    Toxic to pets (keep away from curious cats and dogs)

  • Skill Level

    Easy Care

  • Pest Prevention & Pruning

    Keep those gorgeous leaves looking pristine by keeping an eye out for pests. Stop them in their tracks by pinching off any bugs you spot early on. Avoid any heavy pruning in the beginning unless you are removing clearly dead or mushy tissue to keep the plant happy and stabilized.
