what are these orange-brown spots on my tree philodendron...
is it getting too much sun, or too low humidity, or any other conditions? direct sun only hits this plant around 9-11 am. it’s outdoor; the temperature ranges from minimum 16°C at night, and around 28°C maximum at day. strong winds, humidity levels around 40-50%. i’m living in indonesia, and it’s peak summer/dry season here.
besides the yellow spots on leaves, there’s also these weird dry spots on one of the stems. what are these, and should i do anything about it?
there’s 2 new growing leaves on the way, i want to give the best care for this baby :( please help, thank you!

Hi, Kristeva! I love your #TreePhilodendron! I have one too. Mine used to get those spots when it was getting too much light. Now I've moved it and it gets filtered light all day. It sits under a 50% shade cloth.
The spots on the stems are called corking and it happens over time to give stability to older leaves. (:
I'm glad you found Greg and I love your username! 😆

@sarah10orio hello, thank you for the valuable information! i’ve moved the plant to a shadier spot now :D and also, may i ask some tips to help them grow faster? or are these naturally slow growers?
@sarah10orio awww that’s a sweet comparison! i will also think of them as dinosaurs from now on 🦕🌿 alright then i don’t have anything to worry about! ^^ i’m gonna keep on doing whatever i’m doing right now ✨
