Philodendron Mayoi

Light: Place your Philodendron Mayoi in a bright spot, but avoid direct sunlight, especially during the hottest hours of the day. It tolerates indirect to medium light well.

Temperature: This plant prefers moderate temperatures, between 18 and 24 degrees Celsius. Avoid extreme temperatures and cold drafts.

Watering: Water your Philodendron Mayoi when the top of the soil is dry to the touch, being careful not to overwater to avoid root rot. Always allow excess water to drain from the pot. Reduce watering in winter when growth is slower.

Humidity: This plant appreciates medium to high humidity. If the air in your home is dry, mist the leaves regularly with water to increase ambient humidity. You can also place a tray of water with pebbles under the pot to increase humidity.

Fertilization: Fertilize your Philodendron Mayoi with a diluted balanced liquid fertilizer about once a month during the growing season (spring and summer). Avoid fertilizing in winter when the plant is dormant.

Support: Like many Philodendrons, Philodendron Mayoi can become vining over time. If you wish to support it, you can provide it with a support such as a trellis or stakes.

Pruning: Prune your Philodendron Mayoi as needed to control its size and shape. Remove dead or yellowing leaves as they appear to encourage healthy growth.
