You will receive the plant in the 1st picture, picture 2 is a picture of the roots already developing, picture three is of my "mother" plant, picture 4 is a stock photo to show the detail of this plant. The roots will be wrapped in wet materials, and the plant itself will be padded to survive its trip to you.
Transplant your philodendron into a large, planter 2 to 3 times the size of the plant start. Use any potting soil designed for houseplants. Be sure to place the pot on a plant saucer.
Water your newly transplanted philodendron at least once a week until you see signs of new growth, then allow the soil to dry out before you water it again. Usually, watering a philodendron every two weeks is sufficient. Water even less during the winter.
Philodendrons can easily become sunburned, so keep yours in an spot that receives filtered or indirect sunlight.
Provide a temperature between 60 and 85 F. Philodendrons can withstand lower temperatures---as low as 36 F---for short periods of time.
Fertilize your plant twice each year---in spring and mid summer---with an all-purpose liquid houseplant fertilizer. Dilute it according to instructions on the label.
If leaves begin to turn yellow, this indicates that you are over-watering. Cut back on water and the new foliage that soon emerges should be a healthy green color.
