philodendron imperial green

Philodendron Imperial Green is a popular and attractive houseplant known for its lush, glossy foliage and easy care. Here’s a comprehensive care guide to help you keep your Philodendron Imperial Green thriving:

Sunlight

  • Bright, Indirect Light: Place your Philodendron Imperial Green in a spot with bright, indirect light. It can tolerate lower light conditions but will grow more slowly and may become leggy.
  • Avoid Direct Sunlight: Direct sunlight can scorch the leaves and cause damage. Filtered or dappled light is ideal.

Watering

  • Regular Watering: Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil are dry. Stick your finger into the soil to check moisture levels before watering.
  • Drainage: Ensure good drainage by using a pot with drainage holes. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so avoid letting the plant sit in excess water.

Humidity

  • Moderate to High Humidity: Philodendron Imperial Green prefers higher humidity levels, typically around 50-60%. Regular misting or a humidity tray can help if indoor air is dry.

Temperature

  • Warm Temperatures: Maintain temperatures between 18-27°C. Avoid exposing the plant to temperatures below 10°C and drafty areas.
