Philodendron Painted Lady – Picture shows in a 4″ nursery pot

***Disclaimer***

Our grower has confirmed the plant to be a painted lady. However, we are doubtful about the true identity of this plant. The plant is not mature enough to be confirmed as a philodendron-painted lady. There is a possibility that it might be a Philodendron Calkins Gold.

Care Tips:

Light: Bright Indirect
Water: 10 – 15 Days
Humidity: High
Pet Friendly: No

Philodendron painted lady thrives in bright indirect light. You can also easily grow them in medium light. However, the growth of the plant will be slower and watering will be less frequent. Bright light will encourage retaining the variegation on the leaves. Please let the top 2″ of the soil get dry between watering. The watering is somewhat between 10 – 15 days as every house is different in terms of heat, humidity, and light. It is highly recommended to use room temperature water to water your plants as we do not want to shock the roots with hot or cold water. Philodendrons are tropical plants and love high humidity. A regular misting will make the plant very happy and healthy.
