California Tropicals Philodendron Cordatum

No, this plant is not pet-friendly. It contains calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause irritation if ingested by cats or dogs, so it is best kept on a high shelf or in a hanging basket out of reach.

To maintain that signature electric neon hue, place it in bright, indirect light. While it can tolerate partial shade, too little light will cause the new growth to turn a darker, duller green.

Aim for moderate watering. Allow the top inch or two of soil to dry out completely before watering again, as this plant prefers to be slightly on the drier side rather than sitting in soggy soil.

This plant has a moderate growth rate. You can expect it to start trailing fairly quickly once it settles into its new environment, but it will likely need a repotting into a slightly larger container within a few months.

Absolutely. It is one of the most forgiving houseplants available, handling occasional missed waterings or varying light conditions better than most tropical varieties.
