☀️ Light
☀️☀️▫️ (Medium)
The Philodendron Micans thrives in medium light conditions. It prefers bright, indirect sunlight. Too much direct sun can scorch its leaves, while too little light may cause it to become leggy.
💧 Water
💧💧▫️ (Medium)
Water your Philodendron Micans when the top inch of soil feels dry. Ensure the pot has good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. This plant likes consistency with moisture but doesn’t appreciate being overly wet.
🌡️ Temperature
🌡️🌡️▫️ (Average)
Philodendron Micans prefers average room temperatures between 18°C and 24°C. Avoid sudden temperature drops and cold drafts, which can harm the plant.
💦 Humidity
💦💦▫️ (Moderate)
This plant enjoys moderate humidity levels. If your home is dry, especially in winter, consider using a humidifier or placing a water tray near the plant to boost the moisture in the air.
🪴 Repotting
Philodendron Micans should be repotted every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its pot. Use a well-draining potting mix to promote healthy root growth. Adding a moss pole can help support its climbing habit and encourage larger leaf development.

We’re a small family business with a big love for plants.
From our base in Aberdeen, we pack every order with care and love. Our small size means we can be flexible with special requests, and we’re always happy to help. We reuse packaging, craft our own eco-friendly products, and offer friendly advice whenever you need it.
Fantastic service as always from Pam, Craig and the Team! Added bonus to get to meet Angus the new puppy!
Great website and very communicative with delivery updates. Minor issue with the interface for the aroid plants bundle: I was unable to select both the base and extension pole, so had to add the latter separately.
Really lovely selection of plants photographed beautifully. I had a question before placing my order and used the online contact form. Craig couldn’t have been more helpful with a super quick response which resolved my query completely. My order was delivered on time and the plants and accessories were wrapped so beautifully with thoughtful little extras which made opening everything really special. I even got a ‘wee gift’ with my order and although I was aware from the website that one would be included with my order, it was just another example of a company who really wants to connect with the customers, even though there must be a financial commitment. I found the website full of useful articles and being able to access specific care guides for my purchases has been extremely useful.
The plants are well taken care of and from the few times I’ve bought from them never had any issues with the plants. 10/10 care would definitely recommend buying either only or in person.
