Know before you buy
This plant requires bright, indirect light to keep its colors vibrant. Placing it near an east-facing window or a few feet back from a south-facing window is ideal, as direct sun can scorch the delicate variegated leaves.
It is relatively easy to care for, though it grows much slower than common varieties like the Heartleaf Philodendron. Because of its slow growth rate, it requires less frequent repotting and fertilization, making it a low-maintenance choice for collectors.
No, the Philodendron Ring of Fire is toxic to pets if ingested. It is best kept on a high shelf or in a room that your animals cannot access.
Due to its slow growth habit, you should expect new leaves to emerge less frequently than with faster-growing tropicals. During the warmer spring and summer months, you may see new growth more regularly if the plant is receiving adequate light.
Choose a 2-inch or 4-inch pot if you prefer a desk-sized plant or are looking to watch it grow over time. The 6-inch and 8-inch sizes are better suited for floor displays or as a statement piece on a larger plant stand.
