Philodendron

Brief Description

Philodendrons are popular houseplants known for their lush foliage and ability to thrive in low-light conditions. They have large, heart-shaped leaves that can vary in shade from deep green to lighter shades depending on the species.

Care Instructions

Philodendrons prefer indirect light and should be watered when the top inch of soil feels dry. They thrive in a humid environment, so occasional misting can help. Fertilize every few weeks during the growing season.

Medicinal Value

While not commonly used for medicinal purposes, some species are believed to have mild anti-inflammatory properties. However, care is needed as philodendrons can be toxic if ingested.
