Product description
Philodendron Verrucosum is native to the jungles of South America. Here, the plant spreads over the ground until it encounters a tree and continues to grow climbing it. This houseplant can therefore grow to a considerable height in the wild.
Care & tips Philodendron Verrucosum - 40cm
The Philodendron Verrucosum is an easy houseplant that grows quickly and does well as a hanging plant in your Urban Jungle. It likes light humidity, so occasional watering is recommended. This not only helps keep the plant in a tropical environment, but also removes dust from the leaves, allowing the plant to breathe better. Moreover, watering works preventively against pests and diseases, contributing to healthy growth.
Water requirements Philodendron Verrucosum - 40cm
Water the Philodendron Verrucosum every 4 to 5 days, but always feel the soil first. This plant likes a slightly moist soil, but should not stand in water for too long. It is important to keep a close eye on how much water you give, especially in the beginning. Does the soil still feel damp after 6 to 7 days? Then you can water a little less next time. Too wet soil can cause root rot, which is harmful to the plant. So be careful not to overwater.
Light requirement Philodendron Verrucosum - 40cm
The Philodendron Verrucosum does well in a shady spot, making it perfect for a dark corner of the house. It does not need direct sunlight, and a sunny location may even be harmful. Nevertheless, it does need sufficient daylight to stay healthy. Yellow or brown leaves can indicate too much or too little light. It is a good sign if you notice that the plant is producing new leaves; this indicates healthy growth. So adjust the lighting to ensure your Philodendron Verrucosum can grow optimally.
Is the Philodendron Verrucosum - 40 cm poisonous?
The Philodendron Verrucosum is poisonous if ingested, so it is important to make sure that small children and pets cannot easily reach the plant.
