Botanical Name: Philodendron
-
Common Names: Congo Rojo
- Description: The Congo Rojo is a unique tropical houseplant native to South America. This plant is different than most philodendrons as its stems will not grow in a vine like habit. The Congo Rojo is a self-header that spreads outward as it grows upward. The glossy, dark green, thick leaves are spaced very close to each other on a single stem. The stiff, barely visible stem, keeps a Philodendron Congo upright and elegant looking as it matures.
Care:
- Light: Although Philodendron houseplants can tolerate low light they will grow faster in bright, indirect light or medium light. Avoid direct light on the foliage as this will cause it to burn. They can tolerate low light, however if you notice leggy growth you may need to move it to a brighter location.
- Pet Friendly: No
- Water: Philodendrons like soil with good drainage. Allow the top 2-3 inches of soil to dry out between waterings. Careful not to over water since this can cause root rot. Non-climbing species are more drought tolerant than climbing species.
- Humidity: Medium
- Temperature: The ideal temperature for a philodendron is between 65 – 78° F during the day, and around 60° F at night.
- Difficult Level: Easy
