How to Care for the Plant

Water
Generally speaking, count on watering once every week to ten days; however, small variables such as pot size and plant size may influence this schedule. It's best to simply check your soil every few days and water when it is nearly completely dry.
Fertilizer
Fertilize once a month with a diluted liquid fertilizer or use a slow-releasing nitrogen-based fertilizer, during the spring and summer season.
Sunlight
It enjoys full sun or light shade.

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
Provide good air circulation, with temperatures between 65 (18 °C) to 75 F (23 °C) and nighttime temperatures between 50 t(10°C) to 60 F (15 °C).
