Sun: Indirect

Ensure your Philodendron Prince Of Orange receives consistent, moderate light. Insufficient light can cause the plant to become leggy, while too much direct sunlight can burn its leaves. If you notice the leaves turning pale or losing their vibrant orange color, it may indicate that the plant is not receiving enough light.

Light: Bright - Medium

Philodendron Prince Of Orange prefers bright, indirect light. It can tolerate some direct sunlight in the morning or late afternoon, but too much direct sunlight can scorch its leaves. Place it near a window with sheer curtains or in a location where it receives filtered sunlight throughout the day.

Water: When Mostly dry

Water your Philodendron Prince Of Orange thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. It's essential to avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot. Allow excess water to drain away freely, and never let the plant sit in water for extended periods. During the winter months or when the plant is not actively growing, reduce watering frequency.

Humidity: Medium

Philodendron Prince Of Orange enjoys moderate to high humidity levels. You can increase humidity by misting the plant regularly, placing a tray filled with water and pebbles beneath the pot, or using a humidifier. However, ensure good airflow around the plant to prevent fungal diseases.

Pet Friendly: Caution

While Philodendron Prince Of Orange is not considered highly toxic to pets, it can cause mild irritation if ingested. It's best to keep it out of reach of curious pets or supervise them closely around the plant. If you notice any signs of chewing or ingestion, consult your veterinarian immediately.

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!
