How to Care for the Plant

Water
Water deeply, regularly in first growing season to establish root system. In very hot, arid summer areas, best with some shelter from harsh, reflected afternoon sun. Water regularly - weekly, or more often in extreme heat or containers.
Pruning
The optimum time to prune blueberries is in late winter to early spring after the chance of severe cold is over and before new growth has begun. At this time, it is easy to assess how much, if any, winter injury has occurred as well as how many fruit buds are present.
Fertilizer
Most fertilizers for container-grown blueberries can work perfectly with the blueberries that grow in soil. Fertilizer with nitrogen in the form of urea or ammonium is perfect for the blueberries that grow in a container. Ammonium sulfate (21-0-0) is among the best nitrogen fertilizer.

Sunlight
Part 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).
