Philodendron scandens — also known as the Heartleaf Philodendron — is a beloved classic houseplant, admired for its glossy, heart-shaped green leaves and graceful, trailing vines. Its versatile nature makes it perfect for hanging baskets, shelves, or trained up a moss pole for a lush, tropical display.
Tolerant and easy-going, Philodendron scandens is an ideal choice for beginners and seasoned plant lovers alike.
Care Requirements:
Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but will tolerate medium and lower-light conditions. Avoid harsh direct sun.
Water: Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil feel dry. Keep soil evenly moist, but not soggy.
Humidity: Thrives in moderate to high humidity but adapts well to average indoor conditions.
Temperature: Enjoys warm conditions between 18–27°C. Protect from cold drafts or sudden temperature changes.
Soil: A well-draining potting mix rich in organic matter works best. Adding perlite or orchid bark improves aeration.
Feeding: Fertilize every 4–6 weeks during the growing season with a balanced liquid fertilizer.
Pruning: Trim back long vines to maintain shape and encourage bushier growth.
Pet-Friendly: No. Philodendrons are toxic if ingested by pets or humans.
