🌿 Heartleaf Philodendron Care Instructions

The Heartleaf Philodendron is famously easygoing, making it an excellent match for beginner gardeners or busy homes. [1]

- Sunlight: Thrives best in bright, indirect sunlight, but it is highly adaptable and will grow beautifully in medium to low-light spaces. Keep it out of harsh, direct afternoon sun to prevent leaf scorching. [1]
- Watering: Water thoroughly once the top 1 to 2 inches of soil feels completely dry to the touch. Use your clear pot to visually check moisture levels deep in the root column before watering. Avoid letting it sit in stagnant, waterlogged soil.
- Humidity: Adapts beautifully to average household humidity levels. For the 3″ Rooted Start variation, keep the top air vent partially closed early on to maintain high humidity, gradually opening it over a couple of weeks to acclimate the vine to your open room. [1]
- Temperature: Maintain a stable indoor temperature range between 65°F and 80°F. Protect your plant from freezing window drafts and active heating vents.
- Soil: Plant or top-dress using a loose, airy, well-draining potting substrate, such as our signature Dirtbags Handcrafted Soil Blend.

🐾 Pet Safety Information

- Important Safety Note: Unlike the Goldfish Plant, Philodendrons contain naturally occurring insoluble calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause mild digestive irritation if chewed. We recommend displaying this beautiful trailing vine on high shelves, ceiling hangers, or tall mantels safely out of reach of curious cats and dogs. [1]
