About Philodendron Heart Leaf Golden
Philodendron Heart Leaf Golden is a trailing vine variety of the classic Heart Leaf Philodendron, with glossy, heart-shaped leaves in vivid golden-yellow. One of the most tolerant and durable houseplants, it adapts easily to a range of indoor conditions.
Growing Conditions
- Light: Medium, indirect light; too little light produces smaller, more widely-spaced leaves, while direct sun burns the foliage.
- Soil: Good commercial potting mix with equal parts loam, sand, and peat moss.
- Humidity: Tolerates typical home humidity; misting encourages lush growth.
Placement
Ideal for hanging baskets, shelves, and trailing over the edge of tables or window sills.
Care
- Watering: Keep soil evenly moist, allowing it to dry out between waterings; water less in winter. Overwatering causes yellow leaves, underwatering causes brown, dropping leaves.
- Fertilizer: Liquid houseplant fertilizer in spring and again in mid-summer.
- Repotting: Every 2-3 years, once roots become tightly packed - it prefers snug pots.
- Pruning: Trim trailing stems to control length and encourage bushier growth.
Note: This listing ships a young potted plant. Growth rate and mature size vary by light, care, and environment. Toxic if ingested (contains calcium oxalate crystals) - can cause mouth/throat irritation, drooling, and vomiting in pets. A commonly-flagged toxic houseplant - keep away from pets and children.
