What is the plant

Narrow Tiger Tooth are very easy to grow tropical plants that require little care indoors or out. Like other aroids, many species of Philodendron can be grown as houseplants, or outdoors in mild climates. They thrive in moist soils with high organic matter and grow best when provided with a mossy post or burlap wrapped pole to climb.

How to Care for the Plant

Water
Water the Philodendron Brandi plant deeply, but allow the top of the soil to become moderately dry before the next watering. Philodendrons are tough plants, so they will not be bothered if you forget to water your plant once or twice. If your plant has droopy and curly leaves, it is receiving insufficient water supply.
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.
Fertilizer
Philodendrons are not heavy feeders, but they do benefit from a bit of fertilizing, especially during the growing season. Using a quality fertilizer will help your philodendron to grow larger and more vibrant leaves.

Sunlight
Being a Philodendron, it is quite tough and competitive, so grows well under trees or in crowded plantings. It takes anything from full sun to full shade. Xanadu is occasionally grown as an indoor plant, where it should do well if not over-watered.
Soil
Philodendrons grow best in soil that is consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top inch of the soil is dry, keeping in mind that soil in unglazed clay or ceramic containers tends to dry out faster than soil in plastic or glazed containers.
Temperature
Tender plant – may be damaged or killed by low temperature.
