Araceae

Philodendron erubescens 'White Princess'

Care at a glance

Water: Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch, usually once a week. Reduce watering in winter, allowing the soil to dry out a bit more between waterings.
Light: Prefers bright, indirect light; direct sunlight can scorch its leaves. A north or east-facing window is ideal, or a few feet away from a south or west-facing window.
Humidity: Thrives in high humidity, so regular misting or a pebble tray is beneficial.
Temperature: Maintain temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C) and avoid sudden drops.
Soil: Use a well-draining, aerated potting mix rich in organic matter.
Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 2-4 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).
Toxicity: All parts of the Philodendron erubescens are toxic to pets and humans if ingested, causing oral irritation and digestive upset.
Propagation: Easily propagated by stem cuttings; take a cutting with at least one node and place it in water or moist potting mix.
