How to Care for the Plant
Water
Philodendron Pastazanum needs 0.8 cups of water every 12 days when it doesn't get direct sunlight
Pruning
Cutting back philodendron plants is beneficial if the plant is taking up too much space in the room, or if the plant looks long and leggy. This type of pruning is best done in spring or fall. You can safely give your philodendron a light trim any time of year to remove yellowing leaves and trim spindly growth.

To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Philodendron Pastazanum after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.
