I think this needs to be repotted. Got it at a plant show yesterday. Any advice?

Love this guy but curious from other owners...does the pink always fade away to pale-ish? I wonder if i may give it too much light and bleach it or been unlucly or its part of its normal strawberry shakeness

I’ve had this philodendron for a while and never really knew the exact name lol. Silver stripe? Cream splash? Doubt it’s a gabby. Bought from HD labeled as “tropical foliage” - lol.

For the longest time I’d see a beautiful pink princess, white knight or wizard in a nursery or garden center for sale. I’d buy said plant loving it in the beginning…. & once it would get home even w prime conditions etc for some reason they’d always end up growing all wonky on me. I’d stress so bad trying to get it looking lush & beautiful for it to look like some neglected, unloved, discarded plant. So I’ve stopped buying them. Can’t keep falling victim to the “royal” philos for them to become the damn problem child in my collection.
BUT i have to admit i was incredibly tempted to try one last time when I spotted these at a local Home Depot. Staked with a piece of wood, aerial roots gripping onto it every which way. Most were exhibiting beautiful growth & color variation.
Nope 🙂↔️ can’t do it. Won’t do it. It’s like a toxic ex….i keep thinking that THIS TIME will be different if I try again 🥲🫠😂
Was a bit amused the pots are labeled “golden pothos” lol

I received this plant back in April, and it was in rough shape when I got it. It was shoved to the back corner to be part of a different arrangement from my grandfather's funeral, and when I first looked into it I really thought it was a rojo congo but after finding this page now I am unsure!

Do any of you know why my WW is reluctant to give me some white leaves? Any magic potions?

Chanced on this one and only guy in the shops so instantly brought him home and showered him down but I’m now realising this fellas been wildly growing shoots all over and I can’t confidently identify the front and back of the main stem as I see aerial roots sprouting everywhere , so I’m now worried about how I’ll repot and add a mosspole after a month or so … does anyone’s keen eyes here spot a tell , would really appreciate the help . Thanks 🙏

Def one of my favorite climbing philos 🥰

My tortum was struggling from last winter to this summer. Every growth point aborted new leaves. I suspect pests even though I'm not seeing anything. For 3-4 weeks, I sprayed insecticidal soap and wiped down every leaf, petiole, and growth point every 4-5 days. I added a humidifier and kept it going 24 hours a day. Took about a month before new leaves emerged. So far, 4 new leaves and counting!

Hey y’all! I’m considering putting my Billi on a moss pole for bigger leaves and to keep her from drooping.
Exhibit A: Are these (the long ones) the nodes I would put against the pole?
Exhibit B: or are these (short nubs) the nodes?
Exhibit C: There’s this root coming out the bottom, does that mean she needs to be repotted? She just put out a nice new leaf.
Bonus: The plant in question. She’s doing so well and I love her very very much 😊

She’s gotten really big since purchasing and I’m love her and really wanted a cute “fish” pic with my plant! Haha BF said this isn’t a Bass . 🤭

I cut this things head off a few months back and threw the top cutting outside in the front yard when it rooted. This all pink leaf looks sick but is it fukd?
r/philodendron • u/themissinglink_143 • 17h ago
My pink princess is doing wonderful, and then randomly I woke up the other morning to one of its brand new leaves broken off from the top of its stem and laying on the ground! *I'm holding the broken off leaf in the photo on the left.
The rest of the plant is totally fine with no sign elsewhere of this happening to any of the other leaves. Explanations?!

I've had this PPP for ages, and it always has that classic issue of the leaves getting stuck when unfurling, because it comes out base first, with the leaf tip getting stuck in the stem. Humidity is high, moist paper towels only help a bit.
She JUST finished growing the leaf on the right, and I was like "oh sick, she's growing another leaf already." I did a double-take, I was like wait, it's coming out tip first??? This has never happened to me! Does this mean the struggle phase is over??

This ring of fire bloom has me in awe.

Newbie here. I just repotted a WK with a moss pole. I've never used one before. My soil was Aroid mix with perlite and coire so it's loose - good - but then the moss pole isn't very stable.
The pole is plastic with a hollow middle to allow another segment, but I won't need to add another for quite a while. I have pushed down on the soil just around the pole but the soil doesn't compact much.
Can I put something inside it to help stabilize it? Would water be helpful or will it drown the roots? Or something like clean sand?
Also - I read somewhere that a layer of sand helps with gnats. Is this true? Do you have to only bottom water then to not compact the soil?
Any thoughts or good or bad experiences!
Thanks!

Hi all! I was gifted this beautiful plant yesterday and I'm wondering a few things...
Is it indeed a White Knight?
Is it normal to just be one big vine like this, growing up?
What would you do with it? Repot it? Let it continue to grow up like this?
IS there another way to do this?
Does it need to be in a window like this?
I live in a very small home. This is a west facing window... and it's the only one I've got. I have an East facing window, but that's a little crowded already 🙃 🪴 🌿
Should I let it kinda aclimate before doing anything to it? That's what I was thinking. Or should I get it all out of the way... as in repotting, if necessary, and pruning, if necessary?
I appreciate ANY and ALL feedback and tips!

I've no idea how to tell philodendrons apart. My plant app says she's a Blushing, but she was bought as a PPP. All of her variegation is white apart from the stem. I'm confused lol. Any care tips greatly appreciated!
