Are philodendrons easy to care for?
Yes. Most philodendrons handle typical indoor conditions well and bounce back with consistent watering and bright indirect light.

How often should I water a philodendron?
Water when the top of the potting mix feels dry. Overwatering is a bigger problem than underwatering for most plants.

Do philodendrons need direct sunlight?
No. Direct sun can scorch leaves. Bright, indirect light is best.

Why are my philodendron leaves turning yellow?
Yellowing is commonly linked to overwatering, poor drainage, or low light. Check soil moisture and ensure your pot drains freely.

Can I train a philodendron to climb?
Yes. Climbing varieties grow larger leaves when supported by a moss pole or similar structure.

Are philodendrons safe around pets?
Many philodendrons can irritate pets if chewed. Place plants out of reach and consult a veterinarian if ingestion occurs.

When should I repot my philodendron?
Repot when roots circle the pot or water drains too quickly. Many plants do well with repotting during active growth seasons.
