Philodendron squamiferum

Advice

1. Bright Indirect Light: Prefer bright but indirect light. Avoid intense direct sunlight.
2. Moderate Watering: Keep the substrate slightly moist, but avoid waterlogging. Allow topsoil to dry out between waterings.
3. Moderate to High Humidity: Philodendron Squamiferum does well with moderate to high humidity levels. You can improve humidity by providing a moist environment or by placing the pot on a tray of water.
4. Warm Temperature: It prefers warm temperatures and does not tolerate cold draughts well. Keep the plant in a warm, sheltered environment.
5. Well-drained substrate: Use a well-drained substrate to avoid waterlogging problems.

Signs of weakness

1. Yellow leaves: Yellow discolouration on the leaves could be indicative of problems with watering, either too much or too little.
2. Leaf Loss: If you notice that the plant is losing leaves excessively, it could be related to sudden changes in the environment or inadequate light conditions.
3. Leaf spots: Irregular spots on the leaves may be due to water problems or sunburn.
