Had a baby hitchhiker on my new prince of orange 🄰 I’ve put him in a cup with moss covered in cling film with some holes. Is that the right thing to do or is there any suggestions?

My two new starter plants! Philodendron Majestic and El Choco Red! I’m excited about these two but curious how soon I should put them on a pole/support. They’re still little babies and only in 3ā€ pots so I don’t think anytime too soon. Also the leaf on the majestic got a little bent during shipping but it’s already starting to sort itself out.

Is there any help for my Birkin? I received it in January and it was thriving until about a month ago when the leaves started breaking off at the stem and it deteriorated quickly after that. It's not in a spot to receive direct sunlight, but most likely has been overwatered.

My PPP has spider mites. šŸ˜ž how do I get rid of these things? They killed one of my other plants because I noticed them too late and that plant had root rot. Can I save my PPP?

Does anyone know what kind of philodendron this is? I got it from Home Depot and it was labeled green princess, but there’s hardly any information for it 😭 I

Saw other people post their Target White Wizards. Didn’t think I’d find one myself!!! I didn’t think I would find any sort of rare plant at a Target honestly. I’m gonna give it time to acclimate before I repot it. Welcome home Ian.

I’m here looking for some advice. I bought this white wizard philodendron in an H2O bowl. Within a few days of buying it, I put it in well draining chunky soil. Only a few smaller roots were rotted and I removed them. Before I potted, it did lose a smaller leaf (turned yellow and fell off). I’ve had it in the pot for about two weeks now. Earlier today I noticed a leaf yellowing. It’s yellow/brown on the stem as well. I’m very careful with watering. The root system has not spread to the sides of the clear container it’s in, but the little bit of root I can see looks to be fine. She is putting off a new leaf, but I’m anxious and don’t want to mess this up lol. I’m wondering if anybody has seen this before/if it is normal for the philodendrons? (It’s one of my plants closest to my humidifier)

Just picked up a philodendron Rojo Congo. I have heard they are hard to grow. Any suggestions to keep my baby happy? I currently have her in my living room next to my sliding door. In full indirect light.

Should I chop this leaf off on my Philodendron Moonlight or see if it heals on its own?

Hi guys first time writing on here. I bought a couple philodendron seed starters. Any guesses on how long they will take to grow ? I followed the instructions and put them down in soil instead of growing them via sandwich bag like I like too. Any tips and tricks? Thanks again!

Hello All! I am new to plant ownership so please be patient with me. Are these little guys new leaves? And if so does that mean my plant is happy? Thank you for your help!

Evening everyone. Just a quick question as I’m not very experienced with philodendrons. I bought this beaut today called a Florida ghost but when I look online I don’t see any with the distinct variegation like the half and half on one of the leaves. So my question is, is this normal for a philodendron Florida ghost? Thanks šŸ™‚

Does anyone know what kind of philodendron this is? It looked unwell so I got it for $5. Had it quarantined for 3wks now because I don’t want it around my other plant babies until I know what’s wrong with it. I’m getting close to throwing it out tho 😬 it isn’t showing signs of improvement, but is unfurling new leaves. I checked for pests etc

Growing my baby philo collection! I have a baby PPP on the way too. My husband got me all the little philos in the colored plastic pots. I officially have a Moonlight (self watering pot), Ring of Fire (black square pot), Variegated Burle Marx (yellow pot), Mint Florida Beauty (green pot), Dark Lord (purple pot), Cherry Red (pink pot), and a White Princess (white pot). I can’t wait to see these little guys grow up!

Does anyone know how to prop (in h20) a Philodendron Pink Princess? All info/tips appreciated. I want another one but they are very expensive!

Was just admiring the solo all-white leaf on my white princess. It’s already pushing out the next leaf, which looks all green, so nothing to fear. The pink petiole and vein is something else, huh? 😌 Meanwhile the stem growth pattern looks like a mutant creature lol

Ok, time for advise/a vote! I have this magnificent Florida Ghost and I am wondering what to do with it!?! I want it on a moss pole, but wondering… is it a plant that went 2 directions and I should put it on 1 pole or do we think it’s 2 plants and I could do 2 poles?! Or would it be ok if 1 and I cut it into 2?! I’ve never had one before and am not sure what would be best! Thanks!
