Philodendron is a tropical plant from the Araceae (Aroid) family that comes in several varieties, including:
Some philodendron species grow vines like pothos plants, while others have larger leaves similar to Monstera deliciosa, Monstera adansonii, and Alocasia.
This plant does well in low-light environments, out of direct sunlight. It also requires moist soil, which should be airy and well-draining to avoid issues like root rot (common in indoor plants).
Wondering how to care for your philodendron plant?
Follow these vital philodendron care tips:
The best potting soil to grow philodendron plants (whether philodendron pink princess, heartleaf philodendron, or split leaf) should have :
That’s why it’s best to use a high-quality soil mix, like Rosy, rather than garden soil to grow philodendron.
Note: While you can use succulent soil to plant philodendrons, you’ll have to amend it with organic matter to help the philodendron flourish.
We also suggest steering clear of conventional potting mixes, DIY soil mix, and soilless mixtures that contain unsustainable soil additives, like:
Instead, buy a bag of Rosy’s philodendron soil, which is 100% sustainable and contains everything your beloved indoor plant needs to thrive!
Philodendron care mainly involves:
These low requirements make it a popular houseplant for beginners.
However, certain issues may leave you wondering, “What’s wrong with my philodendron houseplant?”
When its soil, water, and light needs aren’t properly met, you may notice:
Pruning indoor plants is an essential part of plant care.
Typically, a philodendron houseplant will have green leaves, vines, and an aerial root system. So, to maintain this tropical plant, you need to prune overgrown vines, damaged roots, or yellow leaves.
You can also propagate philodendron plants using a stem cutting (or leaf cutting with a node) from pruning.
Here’s how to propagate philodendron:
I’ve transplanted all that I could for about 3 weeks now and all of the plants appear very happy. I enjoyed working with it also. I would definitely plant more of my plants in the soil.
This stuff rocks. Good for the earth and a catalyst for adding houseplants to my collection!
Very good aeration and drainage, I tend to over water and because of the excellent drainage me and my plants are on very good terms.
I’m really happy with this soil mix. I repotted four plants with this mix 2 months ago and my plants are very happy. My monstera has grown 6 new leaves sine repotting. I did major surgery on my jade and it has put out so many new little leaves. I do pick out little mushrooms often but it doesn’t bother me. Will be purchasing again.
I received my FIRST order on Saturday. The bag was huge! I repotted my neanthe Bella palm and she is adjusting nicely. Then I used the rest to repot a huge sansevieria that I received last month and which was rootbound. This soil was extremely easy to work with and I managed to transfer my sansevieria into a larger pot with no difficulty. I appreciate the time which the team has taken to answer all of my questions regarding this soil. I am highly recommending and will definitely purchase again
I've been using ROSY soil for a little over a year now, and my plants have never been happier. I've noticed a significant improvement in the overall health of my pothos, with extremely fast growth. It's very easy to work with and provides everything your plant needs to thrive. I was able to use the abundance of growth to propagate more healthy pothos plants - all potted in ROSY. I would recommend this to any plant parent!
I love this soil. They're so beautiful and growing so fast
I planted some cuttings from a plant I dropped. At first I was a little apprehensive because the soil is really dark lol….but after 3 weeks she seems to be doing great. She even grew a new leaf 🤗.
I used Rosy soil to plant succulents. I mixed it with a little bit of succulent mix and within 2 weeks, the succulents had grown larger and had new growth shoots. I bought more to transplant herbs for the spring. It's well worth the price and it's all I'll buy now.
I love Rosy Soil! I ordered two bags from the site then used up both so had to get another bag locally. It’s really perfect for wall planters and hanging planters, Rosy Soil has far less loose dirt/soil/potting medium on the top of the plants so there’s less on my floor! I also have found way fewer fungus gnats since switching to Rosy Soil. I love this soil and apparently always need a bag on hand! I highly recommend mixing Oh Happy Plants Habitat Blends into the Rosy Soil (I am NOT affiliated!) for extra nutrients and all kinds of extra good stuff for your plants. Between OHP and Rosy Soil, I’ve greatly streamlined my plant care routines!
