Philodendron Oxycardium Green

Care Tips for Philodendron Oxycardium Green:

🌞Light: Prefers bright, indirect light, but can tolerate low light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can burn the leaves.
💦Watering: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Keep the soil lightly moist, but avoid overwatering, which can cause root rot. In winter, reduce watering frequency as the plants growth slows down.
🌫️Humidity: Tolerates a wide range of humidity levels but prefers moderate humidity. If the air is dry, especially in winter, mist the leaves occasionally or place a humidifier nearby.
🌱Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a mix of regular potting soil and perlite or cactus mix, to prevent water retention.
🌡️Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 18°C to 26°C. Keep it away from cold winds, air conditioners, and heaters.
💪Fertilizing: Feed every 4-6 weeks during the growing season with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer. No need to fertilize in the winter when the plants growth slows.
✂Pruning: Prune regularly to maintain the plants shape and remove any yellow or dead leaves. Pinching back stems encourages fuller growth and helps control its trailing habit.
🌿Repotting: Repot every 1-2 years or when the plant becomes root-bound. Use a pot with drainage holes to prevent waterlogging.
🕷️Pests: While generally pest-resistant, occasionally check for spider mites, mealybugs, or aphids. Wipe the leaves with a damp cloth or treat with insecticidal soap if pests appear.
