Xanadu Philodendron Care

These plants generally like a moderate amount of soil moisture. Water whenever the top inch of soil has dried out. Both overwatering and underwatering can cause the leaves to droop, so gauge when it’s time to water by the soil dryness and not necessarily the leaves. Philodendrons don’t do well sitting in soggy soil, as this can lead to root rot. The non-climbing varieties tend to have a little more drought tolerance than the vining species.

It's best to prune the plant in spring or fall, but yellowing, spindly growths, and dead or dying leaves can be removed anytime. You can simply pinch off leaves you want to remove or use clean pruning shears. The goal is to get your philodendron to a size that works for you and make it become fuller.

Use a balanced liquid fertilizer monthly on your plant in the spring and summer. Then, reduce feeding to every six to eight weeks in the fall and winter. If your plant isn’t getting enough food, its growth will be slower than normal and its leaves might appear smaller than usual.

It needs more light than most of its relatives in order to maintain its compact appearance.
