Philodendron Narrow Escape Plant Care Tips
- You can place your Philodendron Narrow Escape in a shady corner or a bright spot, it is not a fussy plant. Just be careful with direct sunlight, as it may scorch its leaves. The ideal temperatures are between 18°C and 24°C.
- Let roughly the top half of the soil dry before giving it a good soak, let it drain and be cautious to not overwater it.
- Mist it occasionally to give it the extra humidity Philodendrons love!
- During the growing season, feed it with a balanced organic fertiliser once a month.
- When the plant becomes pot bound or top-heavy, repot it into a container one size bigger with good drainage. Use an organic well-draining soil mix.
- Propagation is best with stem cuttings during the growing season. Cut about 3 inches below a leaf joint, put the cutting in a container filled with water and place it in a bright position away from direct sunlight. When the roots reach around 4 inches plant them in well-draining soil.
