This striped sensation is one of the most decorated of the Philodendron family. Bright white inky banding adorns each of the small heart-shaped leaves. As a point of difference from other patterned plants, the variegation is whiter and brighter on the new growth, slowly graduating down the plant’s leaves to reveal darker, richer jungle greens. A top-lit luxury that will glow up smaller spaces.

Philodendron White Wave Care & Info Guide

Horty Hints

Get the light right! Has your plant lost its stripes? Moving it to a brighter position will encourage new white stripes.

Wilting away! This sensitive plant won’t thank you for direct light, leaves will fade and wilt, eventually dropping off. Solve with more shade.

Too dry to cry! Your plant is telling you it is too dry if brown leaf tips appear and start creeping up the leaves. Regular misting or moving to a humid room will remedy this.

Light

Philodendron White Wave is happy in a shaded area but best in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight as this will scorch the leaves, taking a long time to recover.

Watering

Water little and often, keeping the soil moist at all times. Allow the top of the soil to slightly dry out in-between watering. Water less during the winter. Will tolerate some degree of drought better than being too wet.

Temperature

Average to warm household temperatures from 18-28°C and short periods down to 13°C at an absolute push. Avoid cold draughts.

Humidity

Philodendrons are versatile when it comes to humidity levels, however, a good misting on those dry days will help keep the foliage looking fresh.

Feed

Apply a weak solution of liquid fertiliser once a month during the growing season. Do not feed during the winter.
