☀️ Light

• Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain silver tones.

• Tolerates medium light but may lose color vibrancy.

• Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the delicate foliage.

• Grows well under full-spectrum grow lights indoors.

💧 Watering

• Water when the top 2–3 cm (1 inch) of soil is dry.

• Keep soil lightly moist, not soggy.

• Water less frequently in cooler months or lower light conditions.

• Ensure the pot has good drainage to avoid root rot.

🌱 Soil

• Thrives in a well-draining, chunky aroid mix:

  Potting mix + orchid bark + perlite + a bit of charcoal or coco coir.

• Airy soil prevents compaction and supports healthy roots.

💦 Humidity

• Prefers moderate to high humidity (60–80%).

• Can adapt to average room humidity but grows best with added moisture.

• Use a humidifier or place near other plants for better humidity levels.

🌡️ Temperature

• Ideal range: 18–27°C (65–80°F).

• Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below 12°C (54°F).

🍃 Fertilizer

• Feed every 4–6 weeks during the growing season (spring–early fall).

• Use a balanced liquid fertilizer, diluted to half strength.

• Pause fertilizing in winter when growth slows.

✂️ Growth & Support

• Silver Queen is a vining/climbing philodendron—grows best with a moss pole or trellis.

• Climbing encourages larger, more elongated foliage.

• Prune to shape or manage length if it becomes leggy.

✨ Special Features

• Silvery leaves reflect light, adding a unique shimmer to any room.

• Fast grower when given proper conditions.

• An eye-catching statement plant in modern and minimalist interiors.

✅ Display Ideas

• Beautiful in tall planters with moss poles.
