Please help! What is going on? I water once a week. Bright indirect light. Do I need to fertilize? Water more/less?

This philodendron lemon lime was thriving in a 4” plastic pot but I wanted to move it to a Terra cotta pot. So I moved it to a 6” pot a few weeks ago because it looked root bound. However, it lost roots during the transplant and hasn’t rallied in the last few weeks since I transplanted it (losing leaves steadily). So today I moved it back to a 4” again (pictured). Should I chop and prop it too to fill out the pot? I’m afraid the small root system will get lost even in a 4” pot but smaller than that seems unnecessary.

Just bought a couple of tiny baby Philodendron ‘Red Moon’ plants. Nothing came up when I tried to add them. Does anyone else here have a Red Moon? Is it under a different name?

Got my plant babies fertilizer! I stopped putting Miss Lime outside in the mornings, and started giving her fertilizer, and now shes doing so much better!! So many baby leafs!

I bought a Brazilian philodendren yesterday, and can yall tell me, am I killing it already or is it just dramatic? It looked like this last night too, but this morning it was perked up and happy. In my defense I thought it was a pothos when I bought it.

My friend got a promotion that came with a new office, so I gave her the baby my Strawberry Shake made. She’s also a plant person, so the bebeh is in good hands. 🥲

Got this pretty Philodendron Birkin yesterday. What are some good soil options for her that have worked for y’all?

Hey everyone! Just got this beautiful girl today! I have her on the lowest light setting for four hours a day and just watered her with the Arber liquid fertilizer and she has a diffuser next to her. I haven’t reported her because she might go in a shock just from moving places, but I wanted some advice on care for her! All advise is welcome! Substrate, lighting, pots, whatever💚💚💚 I’m kinda new to philodendrons🫣 as I’m a pothos girl but couldn’t resist😂

My philodendron plowmanii is arching up instead of crawling. How do I get it to lower back down and be flat again?
Melanie
How can I propagate this lady? Where do you even cut? I'm used to cutting nodes I can see 😭

My philodendron brasil has started putting out cream colored varigation. Is this normal?

Please tell me how to fix it! I purchased this philodendron Brandt off of Etsy. It arrived broken. I snipped it and placed it in soil. I kept it wet and I put it underneath a grow light and just keeps dying and sun stressing.

This is my handsome chonky boi. All he does is grow. I’ve only had him 1.25 years and this is his second repot.

Okie I need to pick yalls brains about my white wizard… he’s FLUFFY. Like super fluffy. There is all this new foliage deep inside that I worry about getting enough light… should I pull him out and see if I can separate him into multiple plants… looks like it would be possible from the surface view… I reckon my concern is that his stems and petioles are overcrowded in there…

Welcoming my Philo White Wizard to the family. Tons of white streaks along the stem, so I'm hoping for lots of variegation as it matures. New leaf already emerging!

I’m a little bit Philodendron obsessed. Show me all of your favorite Philos. Here’s some of mine.

Be honest, should I let her go 😮💨😅

Hey all! I’ve got a question for the collective, need some tips. I have a Philo painted lady I brought home and put in a self watering pot. She looks to have been well overwatered, droopy leaves, a few yellowed tips, soggy soil. I wouldn’t typically repot so quickly (it’s been less than a month) but I don’t want rot to become an issue that looses me more of her. What would you all recommend? Repot or wait for her to dry out?

I'm having to repot my Cobra due to uncontrollable fungus gnats. Should I separate them? Also should I chop & prop them since they are so long with no aerial roots? And how do I cut them without killing them? Can I cut the "vine" into multiple segments?

Beautiful philodendron rojo congo for $5! Is it worth it? (I got it anyway) :))))
