Plant Faqs

How much light does a Pink Princess need? It requires bright, indirect sunlight to encourage its signature pink variegation. Will my Pink Princess always have pink leaves? Variegation is natural and unpredictable; not every leaf will display high levels of pink. How do I help my Philodendron grow larger leaves? Provide a sturdy moss pole and consistent moisture to encourage it to climb as it would in nature. Can I grow this plant outdoors? Only in tropical climates; in most regions, it is best kept as a houseplant.

Healthy white roots within a firm, moist plug medium.

๐ŸŒฑ

Soil Look

Dark, loose, organic-rich potting medium with visible chunks of bark and perlite.
