Repotting : This is a low-maintenance plant that will require repotting once the roots begin to grow out of the present container.

Typical issues
1. Why are the leaves on my Philodendron curling?
When your Philodendron doesn’t get enough water, the leaves curl. It can also happen as a result of overwatering, which drowns the roots.
2. Why leaves of the philodendron are turning yellow and drooping ?
Overwatering causes philodendron leaves to turn yellow and droop. Reduce the frequency with which you water your plant to address this issue.
3. Why are my Philodendron’s leaves going brown?
Philodendron leaves become brown owing to a lack of water. If you’ve been leaving extended intervals between waterings, try watering it more often.
Design and Decoration
Light Requirements: The Philodendron Golden Heart prefers bright indirect light inside, although it may also thrive in full shade.
Location : Your Philodendron requires moderate sunshine when growing outside. Direct sunlight might cause your plant to burn. Indoors, you may position your Philodendron in a south or west facing window, which will shelter it from direct sunlight while yet providing just the proper amount for it to grow. Balconies that are shaded are also great for the Philodendron.
Styling/decor tip : Its name is Versatility – whatever d?cor, any area ? the huge heart shaped leaves are your solution. Allow it to trail form on top of shelves or hanging pots to add character, climb the walls with a trellis or wire clips for a more tropical feel, or grow on a moss stick to provide height to your decor. It’s your go-to plant since it’s easy to cultivate and has gorgeous leaves that hang softly from the vines.
