About 2 ft tall, comes with bamboo stake.
Light: Philodendron Burle Marx prefers bright, indirect light. It can tolerate lower light conditions but may not grow as vigorously. Avoid direct sunlight, especially intense afternoon sun, as it can scorch the leaves. A north or east-facing window is usually ideal indoors.
Temperature: This plant prefers warm temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C) during the day and slightly cooler temperatures at night. It can tolerate temperatures down to 55°F (13°C) but should be protected from cold drafts and sudden temperature fluctuations.
Watering: Water Philodendron Burle Marx moderately, allowing the top inch (2.5 cm) of soil to dry out between waterings. In general, water when the soil feels dry to the touch, but avoid overwatering as it can lead to root rot. Adjust watering frequency based on environmental conditions and season—water more frequently in spring and summer and reduce watering in fall and winter when growth slows down.
Humidity: Philodendron Burle Marx prefers moderate to high humidity levels. Increase humidity by misting the leaves regularly, using a humidity tray, or placing a humidifier nearby, especially in dry indoor environments.
Soil: Plant Philodendron Burle Marx in a well-draining potting mix that retains some moisture but allows excess water to drain freely. A mix formulated for houseplants or aroid plants works well.
Fertilizing: Feed Philodendron Burle Marx with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half-strength every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce fertilizing in fall and winter when growth slows down.
Potting: Repot Philodendron Burle Marx every 1-2 years in spring if the roots have outgrown the pot. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one with drainage holes. Use gloves when handling the plant as its sap can irritate the skin.
Pruning: Trim any yellow or dead leaves as needed to maintain the plant's appearance and health. You can also prune to control the size and shape of the plant.
Support: As Philodendron Burle Marx grows, it may benefit from staking or providing a moss pole for support, especially if it starts to vine.
