Philodendron Bipennifolium Aurea - 4" Pot from California Tropicals

The Philodendron bipennifolium 'Aurea' thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions, although its vibrant yellow-green leaves may become less vivid. It prefers well-draining soil and should be watered when the top inch of soil feels dry, avoiding waterlogged conditions to prevent root rot. This plant benefits from a support structure like a moss pole to climb, mimicking its natural habitat. High humidity is ideal, though it can adapt to average household humidity levels. Fertilize it monthly during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced liquid fertilizer. It’s a hardy, low-maintenance plant but avoid exposing it to cold drafts or temperatures below 60°F (15°C).
