It grows at a moderate pace under optimal conditions, typically adding new leaves every few weeks.

Can Philodendron Hope Selloum be grown outdoors?

Yes, it can be grown outdoors in warm climates with temperatures above 60°F (15°C).


Sun: Indirect

Provide bright, indirect light for optimal growth. Place it near a window where it can receive filtered sunlight or use artificial grow lights if natural light is limited.

Light: Medium - Bright

While it prefers bright, indirect sunlight, it can tolerate lower light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch its leaves.

Water: When mostly dry

Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, usually once a week. Ensure proper drainage to prevent root rot.

Humidity: High

Philodendron Hope Selloum thrives in high humidity environments. Mist the leaves regularly or use a pebble tray filled with water to increase humidity levels. Avoid placing near drafty areas or air vents.

Pet Friendly: Caution

Philodendron Hope Selloum may cause adverse reactions if ingested and is moderately toxic to pets. It's advisable to prevent pets from consuming it, as with all plants. The severity of the reaction varies based on the amount ingested. If your pet typically avoids eating plants, this species can still be suitable for your home.

Pro Tip

Philodendron Hope Selloum can tolerate low light conditions, but it thrives and develops more variegation in its leaves when placed in medium to bright indirect light. If the leaves appear pale, it could indicate that the plant is receiving too much light. Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight, as this can lead to sunburn and damage the foliage.

Your Complete Guide to Pot Sizes: What Size Should You Choose?

When selecting a pot for your plant, it's important to find the right size. But with all the different options out there, how do you know which one is best? We're here to help!

MyGreenscape's pot sizes chart is a great resource for finding your perfect fit. Our easy-to-read chart takes out all the guesswork and helps you quickly choose the right size for your plant.

Smaller pots are best for seedlings or small plants just starting out. These tend to be shallow but wide, allowing enough room for the roots of the young plant but not too much where they get overcrowded. Medium-sized pots are ideal when your plant has grown from its infancy and is ready for more space. These are deeper and wider than small pots, so that it can accommodate larger root systems - making sure your plant gets enough nourishment while still giving it breathing room. Large pots are top choice if you have an established plant in need of lots of space - think trees and large shrubs! The spacious depth and width allow plenty of room for deep root systems without struggling for air or light.

No matter what size you choose, MyGreenscape has got you covered, with our pot sizes chart guaranteeing you find the perfect fit every time!
