Care Instructions
Light: Bright, indirect light helps maintain crisp white variegation and healthy growth. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch leaves or fade variegation.
Water: Allow the top 1–2 inches of soil to dry between waterings. Keep soil evenly moist but not soggy; overwatering can lead to root issues, while underwatering can slow growth.
Soil: Use a well‑draining, nutrient‑rich aroid potting mix. Adding perlite or orchid bark enhances aeration and drainage.
Temperature: Prefers stable indoor temperatures between 65–80°F. Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below 60°F.
Humidity: Moderate to high humidity supports optimal growth and vibrant foliage. Occasional misting or a humidity tray can help in dry environments.
Growth Habit: Upright, clumping form; responds well to support like stakes or a moss pole as it matures.
Pet Safety
Philodendron ‘White Princess’ is toxic to cats and dogs if ingested. Keep out of reach of pets and children. Ingestion can cause oral irritation, swelling, and gastrointestinal upset.
Philodendron ‘White Princess’ combines striking variegation with distinctive form — a dramatic and sophisticated addition to any indoor plant collection.
