🌿 Philodendron Caramel Marble Care Guide

The Philodendron Caramel Marble is a highly prized variegated philodendron known for its swirls of caramel, cream, toffee, and soft green across broad, glossy leaves. Each leaf is unique, making this plant a true living artwork and a standout in any aroid collection.

☀️ Light

• Thrives in bright, indirect light

• Essential for maintaining strong marbling

• Gentle morning sun is fine

• Avoid harsh direct sun — pale areas scorch easily

💧 Water

• Water when the top 3–5 cm of soil are dry

• Keep lightly moist, never soggy

• Use a chunky aroid mix (bark + perlite + coco coir + pumice)

• Yellowing leaves = overwatering

🌫️ Humidity

• Prefers 60–80% humidity

• Higher humidity helps bring out cleaner variegation

• Dry air may cause browning on lighter sections

🌡️ Temperature

• Ideal range: 20–28°C

• Keep away from drafts and cold air

• Never below 16°C

🍽️ Feeding

• Feed every 4–6 weeks in spring & summer

• Use a diluted aroid fertilizer

• Pause feeding in winter

🌱 Growth Tips

• Benefits from a moss pole to size up leaves

• Rotate weekly for even colour distribution

• Trim all-green shoots to maintain variegation

• Wipe leaves to keep marbling bright and glossy

• Not pet-safe
