Know before you buy
This plant thrives best in bright, indirect light. While it is adaptable to partial shade, providing consistent indirect light will help maintain its signature vibrant chartreuse color.
No, the Philodendron Golden Goddess is not pet-safe. It is best kept in a location that is inaccessible to curious pets.
As a climbing vine, the Golden Goddess will benefit from a moss pole or trellis as it matures. Providing vertical support encourages the leaves to grow larger and helps the plant maintain its vining habit.
This plant prefers moderate, regular watering. Allow the top inch or two of soil to dry out between waterings, and ensure your pot has proper drainage to prevent water from pooling at the roots.
The Golden Goddess is hardy in USDA Zones 9-11 and can be kept outdoors in those climates. If you live in a region where temperatures drop below 30°F, you should bring the plant indoors during the colder months.
