** THIS IS A STARTER POT OF FRESHLY ROOTED CUTTINGS **

Philodendron Silver Stripe is a captivating variety known for its dark green, heart-shaped leaves accented with streaks of silvery-white and cream.

Philodendron Silver Stripe Care Tips:

1. Light:

Best grown in bright, indirect light. Too much direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, while low light may reduce variegation.

2. Soil:

Use a high-quality, well-draining potting mix. A combination of potting soil with perlite or bark works well to promote aeration and drainage.

3. Watering:

Allow the top half of soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering can cause root rot, so ensure the pot has proper drainage.

4. Humidity:

Thrives in higher humidity but tolerates average indoor levels. Increase humidity with a pebble tray or humidifier if needed.

5. Temperature:

Prefers temperatures between 65-85°F (18-29°C). Keep it away from cold drafts or sudden temperature changes.

6. Fertilization:

Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Avoid over-fertilizing.

7. Pruning and Maintenance:

Regularly trim leggy stems to encourage a bushier appearance. Remove any yellowing or damaged leaves to maintain its health and beauty.
