6" Philodendron Plowmanii

Philodendron Plowmanii is a stunning plant with distinctively serrated leaves and is relatively easy to care for. Here are some simple care tips:

1. Light: Provide bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.

2. Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.

3. Humidity: Philodendron Plowmanii prefers high humidity. You can increase humidity by misting the leaves or using a pebble tray filled with water beneath the pot.

4. Temperature: It thrives in average room temperatures between 65-75°F (18-24°C). Avoid sudden temperature drops and drafts.

5. Soil: Use a well-draining, peat-based potting mix. A mix formulated for aroids or philodendrons works well.

6. Fertilizing: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).

7. Pruning: Trim yellow or damaged leaves regularly to encourage new growth and maintain a tidy appearance.

8. Propagation: You can propagate Philodendron Plowmanii through stem cuttings. Ensure each cutting has at least one node and propagate in water or moist soil.

By following these simple guidelines, you can enjoy a healthy and vibrant Philodendron Plowmanii in your home.
