FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Vining varieties grow along long, flexible stems that love to trail down from shelves or scale up a pole or trellis. Self-heading (upright) varieties do not vine; instead, they grow leaves from a tight, central basal cluster, resulting in a bushy, self-supporting plant that develops offshoots at the base.

What is the difference between a "vining" and a "self-heading" Philodendron?

Vining varieties grow along long, flexible stems that love to trail down from shelves or scale up a pole or trellis. Self-heading (upright) varieties do not vine; instead, they grow leaves from a tight, central basal cluster, resulting in a bushy, self-supporting plant that develops offshoots at the base.

Yellowing leaves can be caused by overwatering if the soil is soggy, underwatering if the soil is bone-dry, or placing your plant too far from a window where it lacks light. Simply adjust your care by giving bone-dry soil a deep soak, letting soggy soil dry out completely, or moving the plant closer to a bright, indirect light source. If it is just a single older leaf dropping from the very base of the stem every now and then, it is just a natural part of the plant’s aging process!

When a new leaf struggles to unfurl or emerges distorted or with ripped edges, it is almost always a sign of humidity being too low. The protective sheath around the emerging leaves need moisture to stay lubricated and slippery. You can try running a humidifier near the plant or using a moist, soft paintbrush on the new leaf that to help dislodge it from the sheath.
