Description
The Philodendron ‘Ring of Fire’ is a stunning and fairly rare hybrid known for its serrated leaves with colors ranging from green to orange, yellow, cream, and even red. It’s slow-growing but not especially difficult to care for if you get the basics right. Here are some essential care tips:
🌱 Light
Prefers bright, indirect light.
Avoid direct, harsh sun—it can scorch the leaves.
Can tolerate medium light, but coloration will be less vibrant.
💧 Water
Keep the soil evenly moist but not soggy.
Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil are dry.
Reduce watering in winter.
Use distilled or rainwater if your tap water is hard (to prevent leaf spots).
🪴 Soil
Needs a well-draining, airy mix.
Aroid mix works best: chunky bark, perlite, orchid mix, and some peat or coco coir.
🌡️ Temperature & Humidity
Thrives at 65–80°F (18–27°C).
Avoid cold drafts or temps below 55°F (13°C).
Loves high humidity (60%+)—use a humidifier or pebble tray if your air is dry.
🌿 Fertilizer
Feed monthly during spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertilizer (diluted to half strength).
Hold off in fall and winter when growth slows.
✂️ Pruning & Support
Prune dead or yellowing leaves as needed.
Provide a moss pole or support if you want it to climb (though many grow it as a bushy specimen).
🪲 Pests & Issues
Watch for spider mites, mealybugs, and scale.
Wipe leaves occasionally to keep them dust-free.
Browning edges usually mean low humidity or inconsistent watering.
✅ Quick tip: Since it’s a slow grower, patience is key. Focus on steady care rather than expecting rapid leaf production.
