Care & Maintainance

HOW TO CARE FOR PHILODEDNRON RED CONGO - Below see details on how to keep your new arrival happy, healthy, and beautiful. If you’re a fan of Philodendron plants, you’ve probably heard of the Philodendron Pink Princess, Monstera Deliciosa, Philodendron Xanadu, Philodendron Selloum Split Leaves, Philodendron Brazil, Philodendron Heart Leaf, Philodendron Silver Leaf, Monstera Adansonii, If you’re looking to expand your indoor plant collection consider the Philo plants family, anyone of this plants will add a touch of grace and elegance to your home. 

WATER MANAGEMENT FOR PHILODEDNRON RED CONGO - Philodendron plants do enjoy higher moisture levels both in the soil and the surrounding environment, however plants intended for indoor use can be watered less frequent, frequency of watering can depend on the size of the plant, humidity levels and rate of growth. One of the most common mistakes in the care of indoor plants is overwatering, indoor plants are far more tolerant to underwatering than overwatering, Improper watering can result in fungal issues and root rot. It is recommended to monitor your houseplants and water them when they need it, rather than on a schedule. When watering plants the objective is to maintain the soil moist, a moisture meter is a great tool to utilize to reduce the guesswork, We recommend to sample the top soil an inch deep every 3-4 days, if you notice is still moist hold off on watering until it dries further, since most plants water needs may be different this is a good way to determine each individual plant water requirements. Water Recommendations base on pot size, we suggest to utilize a soil probe initially to determine humidity levels and when to water. 6 inch Pot plants, every 4-7 Days, 10-12 inch Pot plants, every 7-12 days 

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS - Medium to Bright indirect light is the best option for these tropical plants, so they can remain vibrant for may years to come. Philodendron plants can perform well both indoors or outdoors under shade, direct sunlight can scorch the leaves. Indoor if is bright enough to read, is bright enough for the Elephant Ears family of plants. Complete darkness is not recommended, no light means the plant can not photosynthesize and it will affect the health of the plant.

HUMIDITY - Philodendron Plants originate from the tropics, where humidity is very high, generally the air in our homes is dry, occasionally misting our houseplants is a very simple and effective way to boost humidity, an easy solution to the risk of overwatering your plants. Philodendrons in general enjoy higher humidity levels, Always pay attention to the color and texture of the leaves on your plant. Generally Plants with brown or dry leaf tips will benefit from regular misting to keep the plant happy and thriving, preferably in the mornings to allow the foliage to completely dry out during the day.

PLACEMENT AND TEMPERATURE - Selecting the right location for your plant indoors or outdoors is very important, micro climates can affect the health of the plant, make sure the plant does not receive air draft from near by AC/Heating vents, or warm air if close to a freezer, the foliage will dehydrate faster than it can hydrate from moisture in the air or in the soil, eventually turning brown and dropping, when plants are properly watered and care for and still display signs of wilting or seem sad it may help to relocate the plant to a different area for brighter indirect light. Please note most tropical plants are from the tropics, proper moisture is required for their health and survival, we highly recommend to bring your tropical plants indoors when temperatures are expected below 45s during winter months or above 90 during summer months, extreme weather can severely damage the plant.

REPOTTING - Philodendron Plants can grow exceptionally well in pots for long periods of time, frequent repotting isn’t as necessary compared to other plants. Generally you should repot your plant when it has become excessively rootbound that its roots are overgrown, you may not need to repot for 1-2 years, do maintain a feeding schedule, the longer is kept in its existing pot the more nutrients are needed to maintain the plant happy and healthy. When repotting is due planting between spring and fall is recommended, use a potting mix with good drainage, Cactus or Succulent potting soil or indoor potting soil is recommended as long as the mix can drain freely, the objective is to avoid water log, you may increase the soil’s drainage properties by simply adding sand or perlite into the soil mix, now is a good time to integrate a slow release fertilizer in the soil, apply it base on label instructions, Most general all purpose fertilizer can work well. Select a pot 2-3 inches wider than your current pot, it should have drain holes if all possible, Do not remove all the soil from the root ball, this procedure can severely stress or may damage the plant, you may remove about an inch of the outer layer of soil as this can simulate growth, avoid planting too deep in the new pot, the top of the root ball should be level to the top of the soil in the new pot. In the event the new pot does not have drain holes you must avoid water from accumulating in the bottom of the pot, this will severely damage the plant, one possible solution is to water a fix amount of water, depending on the size of the plant 1 cup of water per gallon of soil may be sufficient once every 4-7 days. Water slowly to allow the soil to absorb the water and moist evenly, the objective is to avoid excess water build up in the bottom section of the pot.

FERTILIZING – No need to fertilize right away, We fertilize our plants during the production phase with slow release fertilizer which can last an additional 2-3 months supplying residual nutrients to the plant. Once you do decide to fertilize You may use a fertilizer formulated for interior plants, preferably a slow release fertilizer 180 days duration, fertilize during spring or fall base on label instructions.

How to Prune Philodendron Red Congo Plant Philodendron Plants requires regular maintenance, pruning lower bottom leaves may be needed at some point to maintain the plant clean and healthy, Lower leaves will gradually yellow and decay, collapsing over time, this is a normal process as new shoots pop and form into new leaves.

First delivery was bad, plant had root rot but they made up for it and sent me a new Red Congo and it is healthy and beautiful.

I love the above mentioned plant. What I love the most is after you clean the leaves with a little lemon and water they almost sparkle in a beautiful red hue. This plant is wonderful and the vendor is excellent. I highly recommend this supplier. Sal Saccullo

Customer photo review of Philodendron Red Congo, Tropical Forest Plant

Plant arrived very healthy, love it!

I don’t know whether I have ever responded to a request for my opinion about a purchase, but the three large house plants that I bought from Eureka are so beautiful, head and shoulders above any other plants I have bought online, that I wanted to send in a review. They arrived in great shape, didn’t lose a leaf. Since their arrival, they have actually grown because they were so wellpotted. I would recommend this company to everyone. Their plants are truly exceptional and very reasonable.

Beyond my expectations. Really impressed with the care taken in shipping.

This plant is strikingly beautiful in person! Fast shipping and thoughtful packaging for shipment.

Customer photo review of Philodendron Red Congo, Tropical Forest Plant

Beautiful!

Beautiful Plant , Perfect 10!

Beautiful!

I’am so happy with my plants, I don’t know what to do. This is my first time ever buying from your website, and I’m going to buy a whole Lot more in the future. Now I’m starting to hate that, I spent over 10,000 dollars on all kinds of plants versus yours within five years. My wife and I, sit down and calculated how much I spent within five years, I had no idea.😳”Thank you so much!” I will send you a photo of a plant to see if you want it, but you would have to send some people to pick it up, because shipping would be very high. It’s a $6,800 dollar variegated monstera that extremely tall and enormous. your store could easily do propagating cuttings off this enormous plant and make a ton of money. I was hoping your boss or owner of the company would trade me six of the Rojo philodendron the same height that I bought in the 5 gallon pots.I will send you photos. Once again I’m not trying to sell anything just trade you my $6800 dollar variegated monstera, for 6 of your 5 gallon pots rojo philodendron like the ones I bought. If you had this plant in your inventory, this would change everything for your store and business I had the highest variegation possible. I will email you a photos
