It thrives in bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, while too little light can reduce the vibrancy of the foliage. It can tolerate lower light conditions, but the colors will be more pronounced in brighter light.

CARE TIPS

Watering
Frequency: Water the plant when the top inch of soil feels dry. It's important to keep the soil evenly moist but not soggy. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
Water Quality: Philodendrons generally tolerate tap water well, but using distilled or rainwater can be beneficial if your tap water is particularly hard or chlorinated.
Humidity
Preference: This plant prefers moderate to high humidity levels. If the air is too dry, the leaf edges might brown. Regular misting, using a humidity tray, or placing a humidifier nearby can help maintain adequate humidity.
Temperature
Range: It prefers warm temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Avoid exposing the plant to cold drafts or temperatures below 55°F (13°C).
Soil
Type: Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a mix designed for aroids or a combination of peat, perlite, and pine bark. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.
Fertilizing
Schedule: Feed the plant with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding in the fall and winter when the plant's growth slows.
Pruning
Maintenance: Prune to remove any dead or yellowing leaves and to control the plant's size and shape. Pruning can also encourage bushier growth.
Propagation
Method: Philodendron 'Painted Lady' can be propagated through stem cuttings. Take a cutting with at least one node and a few leaves, and place it in water or moist soil until roots develop.
Pests and Diseases
Common Issues: Keep an eye out for common houseplant pests such as spider mites, mealybugs, and scale. Regularly inspect the plant and treat any infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
