I got these little guys about a month ago at a plant swap but they had no identity tags with them. So I need your help so I can add them into the app. Thanks for the help

    The light colored one is a florida ghost. The other one I have no idea, these types of philos all look really similar when their leaves are juvenile (unless they have a very specific color or variegation pattern to go by). You'll be able to tell better when the leaves mature and get their more distinct shape.

    Have you looked at the bottom of the pot? If there are roots growing out then 1st thing first repot them both asap! Neither look healthy. Add a potting stick to both as they are climbing plants. You may have to floral tap to hold them up. Once you have them repotted and tapped loosely they’ll have a chance. If you want them as part of your collection doing the first will save them! If you intend to sell you have presented healthy looking plants. Philodendron two different varieties. Best wishes

      Thanks. I am planning on keeping them checked them both when I got them and the roots are good in the pots they are in so far. I will add some sticks and get them a little straighter and supported. Thanks for the help

    if it helps, care for most philos is pretty much the same. chunky well-draining potting mix, let it dry out a bit before watering, bright indirect light. most tropicals will do well with those general guidelines! (also imo, neither of these look particularly unhealthy. they could use some better staking but they look ok to me)

      Thanks. I will do a chunkier soil when I repot and I have a humidifier and grow lights I use. My pothos are doing well so I put these in the same area.
