HOW TO: Caring for your Hope Philodendron

The Hope Philodendron is a beautiful, easy to care for houseplant that provides yearlong beauty with its interesting foliage and full silhouette. These plants are native to regions in South America - specifically Brazil, Bolivia, Argentina, and Paraguay - and prefer a tropical, humid environment. This Philodendron is a fun addition to any space in your home, and can even filter certain toxins from the air and improve overall air quality in your home!

Care Tips

This plant requires moist soil, but should not be overwatered. Water when the soil feels dry to the touch, and make sure that all the water can be absorbed into the soil. Occasional fertilizing (approximately once every 2 weeks) will help to avoid nutrient deficiencies. The plant prefers bright, indirect sunlight - placement near an east or south facing window would be ideal. Removing dead leaves from the plant is important for aesthetics as well as plant health.
