6" Philodendron Melanochrysum

Philodendron,  is a popular and easy-to-care-for houseplant. Here are straightforward care instructions: 1. Light: Thrives in medium to bright, indirect light.  2. Watering: Allow the top inch or so of the soil to dry out between waterings. Water thoroughly when you do water, and ensure excess water drains away to prevent root rot. 3. Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity but adapts well to average household humidity levels. Mist the leaves occasionally or place the pot on a humidity tray to increase moisture. 4. Temperature: Keep in a room with temperatures ideally between 65-75°F (18-24°C). Avoid cold drafts and sudden temperature fluctuations. 5. Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix with organic matter. A mix designed for houseplants or a blend of peat moss, perlite, and compost works well. 6. Fertilization: Feed monthly during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half-strength. Reduce feeding in fall and winter when growth slows
