Philodendrons themselves are relatively easy-to-maintain indoor plants. The entire Philodendron genus includes almost 500 species. These plants vary considerably in terms of leaf size, shape, and patterning.
Philodendrons are so popular in part because of their adaptability. These plants are very forgiving of low-light conditions, as they naturally grow under shady rainforest canopies. Philodendron prefers high humidity to promote growth in leaves and stems, but will also manage in a drier space. These plants like for their soil to dry out between watering, but they dont like to go longer than 2 weeks without hydration.
A Philodendron is great for long-term roommates and coworkers because they are versatile and will grow to complement wherever room you put them in. A climbing plant, the Philodendron is often pruned and grown as a means of framing or concealing parts of your space.
