The plant photos shown are our stock images used to represent the general appearance, size, and quality of the plant you’ll receive. Please remember that each plant is unique—natural variations in color, shape, and size are completely normal!

 Light

• Prefers bright, indirect light

• Medium light tolerated but variegation may fade

• Avoid direct sun → leaf burn

• Brighter conditions help maintain vibrant orange tones

 Water

• Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil dry out

• Keep soil evenly moist but not soggy

• Overwatering → yellow leaves and root rot

• Underwatering → curling or crispy edges

 Soil

• Use a well-draining, airy aroid mix

• Ideal blend: potting soil + orchid bark + perlite + coco coir

• Prevents root rot and supports healthy growth

 Temperature & Humidity

• Ideal temps: 65–85°F (18–29°C)

• Avoid temps below 55°F (13°C)

• Prefers moderate to high humidity (50–70%)

• Higher humidity helps the orange variegation stay vibrant

 Growth Habit

• Climbing philodendron

• Grows best on a moss pole or trellis

• Leaves become larger and more colorful with support

• Moderate growth rate

• Propagates easily via node cuttings

 Fertilizer

• Feed every 4 weeks in spring and summer

• Use a balanced or foliage-focused fertilizer

• Avoid overfeeding → variegated areas burn easily

• Reduce feeding in fall/winter

 Common Problems

• Color fading: not enough bright light

• Yellowing: overwatering

• Brown edges: dry air or inconsistent watering

• Leggy stems: insufficient light or no climbing support

• Variegation loss: too low light or excessive pruning
