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.
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.
