Philodendron scandens – Sweetheart Plant

 

Philodendrons (also known as Sweetheart Plants or Heartleaf Philodendrons) are relatively tough houseplants. A feature of most Philodendrons is their production of aerial roots from the stems. 

 

Light

Keep out of direct sunlight. Philodendrons perform the best in well lit conditions but will tolerate some shade. 

Water

Keep the compost moist during the winter but make sure that it is not waterlogged. Over watering will cause discolouration of the leaves and leaf drop, especially in cool conditions. Water well in summer. 

Temperature

Average warmth with a minimum of 13ºC (55ºF).

Feed

Feed monthly with a liquid fertiliser. It is not necessary to feed any more than this. 

Repot

Repot in spring every 2 to 3 years.
