The Philodendron Cordatum is a rarer Philodendron with beautiful white variegation on green heart shaped leaves.

 

Light - The Cordatum requires bright indirect light. Low light can lead to sad dull leaves, so near a window is best. Hot sun, such as western sun in warmer months can lead to leaf burn, so keep an eye on position during summer.

 

Water - Water deeply around once a week, keeping soil moist but not letting the roots sit in water. Lesser in winter and more when soil is drying out quickly in our hot summers.

 

Food - In warmer growing months, give a quality liquid fertiliser monthly for the best growth, but hold off during winter.

 

Propagation - The Cordatum is a vine philodendron, so fairly easy to propagate. You can cut the stem either side of a leaf keeping the node, and sit the stem in water to grow roots in a well lit spot. Once the roots have grown a bit, the rooted cuttings can be potted up into soil to continue to grow. Best to prop in warmer months for best results.

 

Soil - Philodendron Cordatum like a well draining soil, that's light, chunky but still retails moisture. Potting mix with added coco peat is great, but some perlite will assist in drainage.

 

Pets - All philodendrons are toxic if eaten, so keep this one away from your fur babies if they are prone to eating your plants.
