Stylish variegated foliage is a standout. Can climb 6 feet tall or more. Ideal for bright desks and tabletops. Easy-care plant makes for a thoughtful gift. Because it grows like a vine as it matures, it’s best to give your Painted Lady Philodendron a support, such as totem or moss pole, on which to climb. Painted Lady grows best within 3 to 4 feet of an east- or west-facing window (or the equivalent of, doing equally well under natural and artificial light). This plant can only go 1-2 weeks without water so check on it weekly and add water every time the top two inches of soil dry out.
