Philodendron Scandens Heartleaf Care Guide

☀️ Light

Light Requirement: ☀️☀️▫️ (Medium)

The Heartleaf Philodendron thrives in bright, indirect light but can also adapt well to lower-light conditions. Try to avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.

💧 Water

Watering Needs: 💧💧▫️ (Medium)

Water your Philodendron when the top 50–75% of the soil feels dry to the touch. This plant appreciates a consistent watering schedule, but be wary of overwatering.

🌡️ Temperature

Temperature Preference: 🌡️🌡️▫️ (Average)

The ideal temperature for your Philodendron is between 18°C to 25°C. Protect it from drafts and sudden temperature changes to keep it happy.

💦 Humidity

Humidity Level: 💦💦▫️ (Moderate)

This plant likes a bit of humidity but generally copes well in most home environments. For extra lush leaves, consider misting it occasionally or placing it near a humidifier.

🪴 Repotting

Philodendron Scandens enjoys being snug in its pot, but you should consider repotting every 2-3 years or when it becomes root-bound. Use our Highland Moss premium aroid potting mix for best results. This will provide the right balance of aeration and moisture for your plant.

Careful here! The Heartleaf Philodendron is toxic to pets if ingested. Keep it out of reach from curious cats and dogs.
