Philodendron subhastatum is an easy going, rare, ornamental tropical plant that has deep green satiny tops of the leaves, with a vivid maroon underside. This Philodendron prefers to climb and will do best with a pole to climb. 


Note: allowing this plant to climb will increase leaf size, but may also cause the plant to lose its maroon backs

Philodendron Care Instructions:
  1. Indoors Philodendron grows best in medium light and bright indirect sunlight. Outdoors, Philodendron prefers bright shade with no direct sunlight.
  2. Water your plant when the top 2” of soil becomes dry. Give your plants a thorough drink. If your plant gets yellow leaves and they start to drop, you're likely overwatering the plant.
  3. Gently remove the bottom leaves as they die off.
  4. Keep an eye on pests. Philodendron can fall prey to common pests like mealybugs, spider mites, and aphids. Keep pests at bay by maintaining the health of your plant.
  5. Fertilize your plant monthly. Pale new leaves typically indicate that your plant isn't getting enough calcium or magnesium. Fertilizing your plant with a water-soluble houseplant fertilizer once a month will keep your plants healthy, strong, and beautiful.
  6. Repot your plant as necessary. As your philodendron grows, you may want to move it to a larger container, or use propagation to start a brand new plant.
  7. Keep your plant away from children and pets. Philodendrons can be poisonous to people and pets if ingested, but they're not lethal.
