Brief Description
Philodendrons are popular houseplants known for their lush foliage and ability to thrive in low light conditions. They come in various species, often characterized by heart-shaped leaves.
Care Instructions
Philodendrons prefer indirect sunlight, moderate watering (allowing the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings), and a humid environment. They benefit from regular fertilization during the growing season.
Medicinal Value
Certain species of Philodendron have been studied for their potential anti-inflammatory properties and are sometimes used in traditional medicine, although caution should be exercised as some can be toxic when ingested.
