Philodendron pastazanum 'red poin'

This highly prized aroid is known for its large, heart-shaped leaves that have a deeply corrugated, glossy green texture. New foliage is distinguished by a temporary pink to reddish point where the leaf meets the stem, a vibrant characteristic seen in your image.

• Light: Medium to bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
• Temperature: Warm conditions. Maintain temperatures between 68-85°F (20-29°C). Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below 60°F (16°C).
• Humidity: High humidity is preferred. Aim for 60% or higher relative humidity. While it can tolerate average household humidity, higher levels will promote larger, healthier leaves.
• Watering: Water thoroughly when the top 1-2 inches of the potting mix feel dry to the touch. Ensure excellent drainage to prevent root rot. Allow some slight drying between waterings.
