# I’m looking for some advice on my Philodendron prince of orange - I…

_Posted by Aliposie on 2024-05-19_

I’m looking for some advice on my Philodendron prince of orange - I went through a low motivation period and he got a bit neglected and is now growing very sideways. He is health and giving new growth. Should I try to prop him up? Let him be sideways and get a long planter? Any ideas?

I would definitely suggest getting a stick or support of some kind and using plant Velcro to hold it up! Maybe even repot it but it’s up to you!

I would also agree with this… a stick will help tremendously

Washed and propped up, thank you for the advice! Still a little wonky but looking better
