Care for Philodendron lacerum
- These Look Fantastic in large rooms, hallways, within offices and anywhere else that can cater to their size and caring needs.
- To grow them tall they have to be trained, which is fairly easy when using a moss stick.
- There is different advice from various sources about feeding (none wrong), but I would suggest fertilizing once a month with a diluted solution.
- Average to high room humidity is needed, so you will need to increase the humidity of a normal room. Misting the leaves is helpful.
