About Philodendron Lemon Lime
Philodendron 'Lemon Lime' boasts delightful bright yellow foliage. 💛 Philodendrons grow aerial roots that grip the bark of trees, allowing them to grow over 20 feet tall! Their heart-shaped 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 Philodendron Lemon Lime

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 Philodendron Lemon Lime after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Another plant I brought back from almost immanent death. My Lemon Lime philodendron! Sprite was an impulse but at a local nursery, but he came home with bugs over three years ago. Almost completely killed him, but he’s finally perked back up! I only water my plants with distilled water and I use a powder plant food I found on Amazon called “Big Green Leaves”, and I only water when the soil is almost 100% dry! #Philodendron #lemonlimephilodendron #PlantsMakePeopleHappy

Is this normal? This is probably a stupid question, but my philodendron had been sprouting new leaves that are yellow. This this normal? Or is there something wrong? I’m assuming it’s the “lemon” of lemon lime, 🍋🟩 but I also feel like there’s something wrong. #Philodendron #PhilodendronLemonLime

#PlantID for my pothos? This girly is definitely a pothos, but the label said she was just a mix. I currently have her down as a golden pothos, but any ideas on what the main pothos strain is there? Given that one of the leaves is much greener than the others so I do imagine that’s a different variety #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #PothosPack #identify #GoldenPothos #NeonPothos #Epipremnum

Repotting I just got a few new plant babies and I want to place them in a more permanent container. Currently they’re in black planter pots, the original ones they came in. I want to move them to a ceramic pot with a drain hole. Initially I was going to get 4” pots but thought it might be best to get a size or so up to accommodate for their projected growth. Should I go with 5” pots or stick to 4” ones? #NewGrowth #PlantAddict #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantTherapy #Philodendron #PothosPack

Is this normal or am I extremely lucky? I looked up pictires of #PhilodendronLemonLime and I didn’t see any that look like this. #variegationappreciation #HappyPlants #NewGrowth

Finally have new growth! Diana was propagated in water and planted. After losing a leaf, she stayed that way for a long time. I put my newly made plant tag and she started gorwing! So clearly my signs are magic because no way was she already growing before the sign lol jk 🤣🤣 #happyplants #newgrowth #plantsmakepeoplehappy #philodendron

Mushrooms in my philodendron? Hi! I recently found a few little mushrooms in one of my plants. Can anyone identify the mushrooms? Is this a concern? Should I remove them and repot the plant?
