Care Requirements:

• Light: Philodendron Brasil thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions. Too much direct sunlight can scorch the leaves.
• Water: It prefers to be kept slightly moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings.
• Humidity: This plant enjoys average household humidity but can adapt to lower humidity levels.
• Temperature: It prefers temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Keep it away from cold drafts or sudden temperature changes.
• Soil: Well-draining potting mix is essential to prevent root rot. A mix designed for houseplants or with perlite and peat moss works well.
• Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).
