Philodendron mamei Culture
Successfully cultivating the striking Philodendron mamei involves understanding its unique needs. Here are some key cultural tips to ensure its thriving growth:
Light: Philodendron mamei thrives in bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can cause its leaves to scorch, so filtered light, such as through a light curtain, is ideal.
Temperature: Mimic its warm, tropical environment by maintaining daytime temperatures between 18-27°C (65-80°F) and nighttime temperatures around 16-21°C (60-70°F).
Humidity: High humidity is essential for Philodendron mamei. Aim for levels between 60-80%. Humidifiers, pebble trays, and regular misting can help maintain these conditions.
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but well-drained. Water frequently but moderately, ensuring excellent drainage to prevent root rot.
Habitat: Philodendron mamei naturally thrives in tropical rainforests, where it grows terrestrially or occasionally climbs up trees. It prefers rich, organic matter in well-draining substrates.
Shipped ok. Spider Mites magnet. The plant is doing ok but spider mites is really impacting its ability to take off and do well. Not a direct reflection of Ecuagenera. Issue is with this plant.
Small, like 1/3 of the picture!
Plant is alive, no yellow leaves but SMALL, like 4-5 inches for the biggest leaf. I asked customer service and he said this is the usual size of the plants they said. Quite disappointing.
The plant I received was very, very small, which is disappointing considering I ordered the full-size mamei and not the medium or the seedling. Roots were pretty good, just needed a little bit of trimming. Lost a couple of leaves, but nothing out of the ordinary. Seems to be doing really well now that itís acclimated. Just wish it was the size I expected :(
