The Philodendron is well known for its deeply lobed leaves which, over time, develop into gigantic shapes. These large leaves give the plant an expansive growth habit as they are supported by extra long leaf stems. This specimen is also one of the non-climbing Philodendron species. Over the years it develops a particularly strong and woody stem. An elaborate trunk pattern is created by the fallen leaf stalks. The exotic appearance of this houseplant is completed by its long aerial roots. A little jungle feeling for everyone!

Philodendron Green Wonder Care Tips
- Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light. Can tolerate lower light conditions but may grow more slowly. Avoid direct sunlight which can scorch the leaves.
- Watering: Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil feel dry. Ensure proper drainage to prevent root rot. Be cautious not to overwater, as soggy soil can lead to root issues.
- Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity. Maintain humidity levels around 50-60%. Use a humidifier or place the plant on a pebble tray if necessary.
- Temperature: Best suited for temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Keep away from cold drafts and sudden temperature fluctuations to ensure healthy growth.
- Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix. A blend of peat, perlite, and orchid bark is ideal for mimicking the plant’s natural habitat and promoting healthy root development.
- Fertilizing: Feed monthly during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer. Reduce feeding during fall and winter to avoid over-fertilizing.
- Pruning: Regularly trim off dead or yellowing leaves to encourage new growth and maintain the plant’s appearance. Pruning also helps control the plant’s size and shape.
- Repotting: Repot every 1-2 years or when the plant outgrows its pot. Spring is the best time for repotting, providing fresh soil and space for the plant to expand.
- Pests: Monitor for common pests such as spider mites, aphids, and mealybugs. Use insecticidal soap or neem oil to treat any infestations promptly.
- Propagation: Propagate through stem cuttings with at least one node. Root cuttings in water or a well-draining soil mix to grow new plants.
