20 - 25cm Philodendron Caramel House Plant 12cm Pot
Philodendron
Philodendron Caramel is a stunning houseplant with new leaves that emerge bright yellow and gradually mature into a caramel color. Here are some care tips for this plant:
-
Light: Philodendron Caramel prefers bright, indirect light. It can tolerate some lower light conditions, but avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.
-
Water: Water the plant when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Water thoroughly, and allow any excess water to drain out of the bottom of the pot. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so make sure the soil has good drainage.
-
Humidity: Philodendron Caramel likes moderate to high humidity levels. You can increase humidity by misting the leaves with water, using a humidifier, or placing a tray of water near the plant.
-
Temperature: The ideal temperature range for this plant is between 65-80°F (18-27°C).
-
Soil: Philodendron Caramel prefers a well-draining potting mix that is rich in organic matter. You can use a mixture of peat moss, perlite, and vermiculite.
-
Fertilizer: Fertilize the plant once a month during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer.
-
Pruning: Prune the plant to maintain its shape and remove any dead or yellowing leaves.
-
Support: Philodendron Caramel can grow quite tall and become top-heavy, so it may need support in the form of a stake or trellis.
-
Propagation: Philodendron Caramel can be propagated by stem cuttings. Take a cutting with at least one node and plant it in moist potting soil.
Remember to keep your plant away from pets and children as it's toxic when ingested. Philodendron Caramel is a relatively low-maintenance plant that can add a touch of warmth and beauty to your indoor garden.
