PHILODENDRON MAMEI PLANT CARE INSTRUCTIONS


Soil
If you want to grow Philodendron Mamei in a pot, you get the best results by using rich, loose potting soil that will drain well and is high in organic matter like your garden compost and mulch.

Any good quality all-purpose, well-draining soil is good enough. Ensure drainage by including perlite in it.

Also make sure you throw in several clumps of organic matter like peat moss, brick bits, coconut husk, bark, etc. because the roots love to wrap themselves around them and draw moisture at a steady rate.

Philodendron Mamei care becomes easier if grow them outdoors straight in the ground. Any spot that has quick-draining soil is good enough.

Light
Philodendron Mamei care requires 70-85% sunlight. Filtered sun is the best to grow the plant, so give it an east window side or a west window side spot.

In order to grow Philodendron Mamei outdoors acclimatize the plant to the new location and beware that the plant is susceptible to sunburn.

Water
I water just enough to keep the soil moist and that's about once a week of deep drenching. Then I let the topsoil dry out about a couple of inches.

That said, the optimal Philodendron Mamei care changes according to time of the year, climatic zone and your specific growing conditions.

If order you live in the tropics and grow Philodendron Mamei outdoors in the ground, you can water it every other day.
