Philodendron 'Congo Rojo'
Complete Care Guide
WATERING
Frequency: Water when the top inch of soil is dry, roughly weekly in the growing season and less in winter.
Method: Water thoroughly until water drains from bottom holes. Empty saucer after 30 minutes.
LIGHT
Best Placement: Medium to bright indirect light, the kind most living rooms have. More light means redder new growth.
Signs: Pale leaves = too much light. Leggy growth = not enough light.
TEMPERATURE & HUMIDITY
Ideal Range: 65-75°F (18-24°C) with 40-60% humidity
Tip: Keep away from heating vents, AC units, and drafty windows.
GROWTH & MAINTENANCE
Repotting: Every 1-2 years in spring, or when roots circle the pot
Fertilizing: Monthly during growing season (spring/summer) with diluted liquid fertilizer.
