Philodendron

Description

It is a bushy, upstanding plant with thick stems and plump, glossy, cupped leaves. It has a minimal, spreading nature and is particularly fit to grow in low or fluorescent light, making it ideal for offices and obscure spots. It forms thin spikes of off-white blossoms on red-brown colored stems.

Well-balanced manure to be fed every 15 days in its growing season and a rich fertilizer mix potting medium while potting or repotting and it’s set for a long haul.

Repot once the roots begin outgrowing the current pot with a slightly bigger pot.

Philodendrons can be easily engendered by stem cuttings, air layering, or offset both in soil and in water.

Plants growing in containers require more fertilizing than those in the ground. The more you water, the more rapidly you flush the nutrients out of the soil.

Some of the issues faced by these plants are:

• If your Philodendron isn’t getting sufficient water, the leaves begin curling. It can also occur due to overwatering which will suffocate the roots and cause root decay. However, unlike overwatering, underwatering can be handily cured by watering more routinely.
• Philodendron leaves becoming yellow and hanging is an indication of overwatering. Water your plant less regularly to address this issue.
• Philodendron leaves become brown-colored because of deficient or irregular watering. Prevent long gaps between watering and do it consistently.
