Care instructions and tips Philodendron Imperial Mix

The Philodendron Imperial is a reasonably easy houseplant to care for. However, due to its tropical origins, this houseplant does like a slightly damp environment. This will enhance its growth and shine. The Philodendron Imperial will certainly survive in a less humid environment, but its growth will be somewhat slower. The Philodendron Imperial also has a strong air-purifying effect. Due to its size, it will not be able to purify the entire room, but every little bit helps!

Water requirements for the Philodendron Imperial

Philodendron Imperial does not need much water, but it is important that the soil stays slightly moist all the time. These houseplants are very sensitive to wet feet. Does the soil still feel moist? Then wait a moment before watering. If your Philodendron Imperial gets brown leaves, this is probably due to too much water. You can easily cut off these brown leaves.

The amount of water depends on the location, the humidity of the room and the size of the pot. Always check the amount and frequency of watering in the beginning. As the Philodendron Imperial originates from a tropical climate, we recommend that you water its leaves on a regular basis. This will ensure that the Imperial Philodendron remains healthy and that it retains its special appearance.
