The Philodendron Green Princess is an easy-to-care-for houseplant. It features oval-shaped, glossy green leaves. Its resilient nature and attractive foliage make it a favourite among plant enthusiasts.
Light
Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate low light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
Water
Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Reduce watering in the winter when the plant's growth slows down.
Humidity
Thrives in moderate to high humidity levels (40-60%). Can adapt to average indoor humidity but benefits from occasional misting.
Temperature
Ideal temperature range: 18-27°C. Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below 13°C.
Fertilisation
Feed with a balanced, water-soluble fertiliser every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding in fall and winter.
Repotting
Repot every 1-2 years or when the plant becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is one size larger and has drainage holes.
Pruning
Prune to control size and shape or to encourage bushier growth. Remove any yellow or dead leaves to maintain plant health.
Pests
Watch for common pests like spider mites, aphids, and mealybugs. Treat with insecticidal soap or neem oil if needed.
