Ed's Plant Shop Philodendron Hederaceum

No, this plant is toxic to cats and dogs if ingested. It is best kept in a hanging basket or on a high shelf out of reach of curious pets.

It is quite adaptable, but it prefers medium to bright indirect light. While it can tolerate lower light conditions, you may notice slower growth and smaller leaves if it is kept in a dark corner for too long.

The best rule of thumb is to check the soil moisture. Water the plant thoroughly only when the top 50% of the soil feels dry to the touch.

Yes, it is very easy to propagate. Simply take a stem cutting that includes a node—the small bump where a leaf meets the stem—and place it in water or moist soil to encourage root growth.

It appreciates humidity between 50% and 70%, but it is generally resilient enough to handle standard household humidity levels. If your home is very dry, occasional misting or a nearby humidifier can help keep the leaves looking their best.
