-Care Recommendations By The Dude-

Best for These Animals: Small to medium-sized amphibians and reptiles.

Bio Dude Substrates: TerraFlora, TerraFauna, TerraFirma

Soil Depth: Prefers moderate to deep soil. Can be placed partially-submerged near water features.

Lighting: Low to medium light, or bright indirect light. Do not place under a heat or basking lamp.

Humidity & Misting: 40% - 100%. Prefers consistently moist soil and higher humidity. Can be placed partially-submerged near water features.

Mature Plant Size & Root System: Can get 2 to 3 feet in height, and occasionally taller (though it can be trimmed and selectively pruned), and can topple over and root along the ground as it grows out.  It likes moderate to deep substrate to fully root out.  It can also climb up and root out along wood branches and backgrounds.

Temperature Tolerance & Placement in the Terrarium: 60 - 85 degrees Fahrenheit tolerated, but prefers temperatures in the 60 - 75 degree range.  Excellent as a sprawling/semi-clumping groundcover, a climbing vine, or placed next to a water feature. 

Edible & Side Effects if Ingested: Philodendrons are members of the family Araceae, so they contain low levels of oxalic acid and sharp calcium oxalate crystals known as raphides. Ingestion may cause oral irritation, but philodendrons are not commonly consumed by reptiles or amphibians.

Pot Size & Packaging: A single 4" potted philodendron plant is shipped in the pot, wrapped in paper.
