Philodendron hederaceum, also known as Heart Leaf, is a charming vining plant originating from South America. It grows swiftly and can be elegantly displayed in hanging baskets or trained to climb trellises or moss poles. Initially, its foliage may emerge as a rich burgundy before transitioning to a lush deep green hue.
Philodendron Cordatum Care:
This houseplant thrives in medium to low light conditions, although it prefers bright indirect light. Place it a few feet away from a sunny window, with the light filtered through thin curtains or blinds. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent leaf damage.
Water your Philodendron Cordatum when the top inch or two of soil feels dry to the touch.
Maintain warm temperatures for your Philodendron Cordatum, ideally between 65⁰F to 80⁰F. Avoid exposing it to temperatures below 50⁰F.
During the growing season (spring through fall), fertilize your Philodendron Cordatum once a month.
