Heartleaf Philodendron
Philodendron Hederaceum
Easy-going and forgiving, a lovely one to live with.
- Light. Likes bright, everyday light; a step back from the window is perfect.
- Water. Likes a drink once the top inch of soil has dried out.
- Humidity. Happy in average household humidity.
- Soil. Wants a chunky, airy aroid mix so her roots can breathe.
- Growth. A fast, spirited grower, so give her room to spread or something to climb.
Best kept up high, out of reach of pets and children who like to nibble.
Thrives in medium to bright indirect light but tolerates low light well. Water when the top inch of soil is dry. Enjoys moderate humidity but adapts to average home conditions. One of the easiest plants you will ever own.
