Philodendron cordatum

Philodendron cordatum is a classic trailing houseplant with glossy, heart-shaped leaves in rich green. Its vines grow quickly and drape beautifully from shelves or hanging baskets, creating that effortless, cascading look. It’s simple, reliable, and always feels fresh—an easy staple for any indoor plant collection.

Philodendron

Philodendrons are adaptable tropical plants known for their lush foliage and forgiving nature. Many varieties trail or climb, thriving in steady indoor conditions with consistent light and moderate watering. With minimal fuss, they produce long, healthy vines and remain easy to maintain.

Caring for Philodendron cordatum

 Light Needs

Bright, indirect light is ideal, though it tolerates moderate light well. Avoid direct sun which can scorch the leaves.

 Watering

Allow the top several centimetres of soil to dry between waterings. Philodendron cordatum prefers slightly drier conditions over consistently wet soil.

 Feeding

Feed once a month during spring and summer with a balanced houseplant fertilizer. Reduce feeding in fall and winter as growth slows naturally.
