Can someone give me care instructions for a philodendron pink princess as I have just gotten one from a plant giveaway

My Mcdowell is putting out a new leaf. I was going to repot with a moss pole, but when I went to grab him he had this leaf so I guess I will be waiting

Hi Philodendron Friends, I have this Philodendron Strawberry Shake… 😬 She’s been looking rough since I took a top cut from her many months ago. I’ve been trying to leave her alone to see what she does, but every time I look at her I want to chop her up and reset her. She has active nodes. What would you do?

Picked up this Philodendron at Home Depot for a pretty good price 🌿 I think it might be a Philodendron ‘Prince of Orange’ — can anyone confirm? Also wondering if these new leaves are a bit stuck and didn’t unfurl completely.

I'm just curious about my Birkin. It's doing good, currently has 2 or 3 new leaves trying to unfurl. Is this normal to have things so crowded at the base? Looks like more than one "vine" or plant. Should I try to separate or is it OK? I don't want it to be stunted in growth or struggle because it's so compacted.

ID Help! Red philodendron Hi all! Got this rescue philo that I chopped up about a month or so ago and was wondering if anyone could help ID? (Both photos from the same mother plant) Not sure if it’s a rojo, mccolley or something else/reverted? 🙃

This leaf on my Velvet Philo Gloriosum is starting to unfurl and it is torn. What can I do to save this leaf? Floral tape? Super glue? I really don’t want to loose this leaf. Thank you in advance, Philo Parents🪴

My Painted Lady is a happy girl. She looks like she is a crawler...maybe? Am I better off planting her in a long pot? Note....I watered her right after I took the picture....I know the soil looks dry. It actually wasn't horrible.

Since I had my soil out to repot some Alocasia’s I decided to repot my Golden Crocodile 🐊 not a good angel for its new leaf, but he is still pretty especially right next to his Red Congo sister. They make each other’s colors pop.

Hello! Can anyone help me with an ID on this philo? It's definitely a saw tooth species, but not sure which one. My first thought is either jungle boogie or pluto, but I've never seen one with such narrow leaves before -- though maybe that's just because the leaves are still kinda small? The newest leaf also has a small splash of reddish brown variegation on the back, but it's the only leaf that has it so probably just random luck rather than anything meaningful lol.

I've scoured Google and AI for info but I thought I would ask planta Philo parents now about winter and philos... I live in Seattle in a top floor apartment with lots of big windows. Great for lighting but it's not the easiest for controlling the environment. I've already had to turn on the radiator on a pretty decent level to keep a tropical temperature in the living room lol. I haven't switched on the furnace there is always that next step ... I've weather taped some windows. Humidity is not an issue I have enough plants that they keep it balmy. I will be purchasing more living room and plant furniture soon I figure it would help to get them off the floor. And I've thought about buying a heat pad (just for the philos), worst case scenario. I already have growlights on. Any other suggestions? From your experience what temps do your philos tolerate in the winter? Is a cabinet pretty much mandatory to keep them healthy? I don't mind them slowing down a bit during the dark winter months but I don't want to kill my collection during their first winter... And id rather not have to pay to keep my apartment a sauna all winter long either if I can help it Thank you Philo parents! As you can see Enzo is already giving me dramatic leaf curl and condensation 🤭 so he will need a remedy by winter I expect. Oh and lastly I forgot to mention Seattle has been in the mid to low 50s F and I've been measuring on the floor next to the Philos like 18.1- 20.4C humidity 70-80% . K thanks

Noticed the dark spot on this leaf last week. Today I noticed it’s gotten bigger and the leaf is yellowing. I repotted the plant last month and haven’t watered for 19 days because the soil has been wet. Is it just a bad leaf or should I be concerned about root rot?
