About Caramel Marble Philodendron
Philodendrons grow aerial roots that grip the bark of trees, allowing them to grow over 20 feet tall! Their leaves change shape as they climb and can grow larger than a dinner plate. Fossils show Philodendrons growing as far back as 30 million years ago when South America was still connected to Antarctica! ❄️

How to fertilize Caramel Marble Philodendron

Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Caramel Marble Philodendron after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Are these white leaves normal? My daughter has been caring for this adorable heart leaf philodendron and I noticed some new leaves that are white. I just want to know if this is normal. Thank you 😊 #NewGrowth #HeartleafPhilodendron

Why are leaves turning yellow if the soil is dry? I thought if leaves turn yellow then they are overwatered and if they turn brown the are dehydrated. The soil is dry, I have not watered it in a few weeks so why are the leaves turning yellow?

Talk about a #GlowUp !! My current favorite #BeforeAndAfter is my #PinkPrincessPhilodendron . She started with some nicely speckled dark leaves and in less than a year started throwing that PINK✨✨✨ I beheaded her last month and not only did the head root perfectly, she started growing back from 2! new growth points on the mama. I’ve now replanted the head with the mama and she is WORK👏ING👏 IT👏 Last pic is Mama’s first new leaf since getting cut. #NewGrowth #HappyPlants

My philodendron micans is dying? My once perfect philodendron has been slowly dying and losing leaves, and I can't figure out what's wrong? The leaves have started producing sticky drops, and they kill off the leaves? I just removed like 10-15 dead leaves. I can't find any sign of pests, so I have no clue what's wrong, just that it'll completely kill my plant if it keeps going.

Should I liberate these leaves? I bought a rescue philodendron a year + back that’s never quite thrived, but never given up either. (I am not 100% on the plant ID either. Lately I noticed the leaves aren’t quite separating? Should I try to release them? Any tips on how? I was going to try a dish cloth with warm water? #Philodendron #WeirdPlants #PlantID

🐶 🐈 👶 Toxicity
Greg does not have confirmed data on this plant’s toxicity. If you, a family member, or a pet consumes plant material of unknown toxicity, it’s always best to consult a medical professional.
If you or someone else ingested this plant, call Poison Control at US (800) 222-1222. If a pet consumed this plant, contact your veterinarian or the ASPCA at US (888) 426-4435.
💨 Humidity
Caramel Marble Philodendron prefers dry environments. Providing extra humidity or misting your plant allows water to linger on leaves, which can create the perfect environment for harmful types of fungi.
🪴 Soil
Caramel Marble Philodendron does best in well-draining soil. A good soil will contain lots of organic matter such as coco coir as well as perlite or vermiculite to help with drainage. Adding a handful of perlite to regular store-bought potting soil should do the trick!
💩 Fertilizer
Caramel Marble Philodendron should be repotted after it doubles in size or once a year, whichever comes first. Fresh potting soil has all the nutrients your plant needs, so as long as it’s refreshed yearly, you shouldn’t need to use fertilizer. Remember, plants get their energy from sunlight, not fertilizer!
❄️ Dormancy
Caramel Marble Philodendron does not have a typical pattern of dormancy. If you notice their growth slowing down substantially, double check that they are getting enough sunlight and water to thrive!
🌎 Native Region
Caramel Marble Philodendron is native to Central, South America, and the Caribbean.
🧐 Troubleshooting
When troubleshooting a sad-looking houseplant, start by checking for signs of distress in its leaves, such as yellowing, browning, or drooping, which can indicate overwatering or nutrient deficiencies.
Inspect the soil moisture; too dry or too wet soil can cause problems.
Ensure the plant is getting the right amount of light, as too much or too little can stress it.
Finally, consider environmental factors like temperature and humidity, and adjust care routines accordingly to revive your plant.
