Philodendron Joepii 6cm

🌿 Philodendron ‘Joepii’ Care Guide

The Joepii is one of the quirkiest Philodendrons out there. Its long, slender, lobster-claw shaped leaves with narrow middles and flared tips make it look like living modern art. A true collector’s plant that’s as conversation-worthy as it is beautiful.

☀️ Light

• Thrives in bright, indirect light

• Can adapt to medium light, but growth slows

• Avoid harsh direct sun, which can burn delicate leaves

💧 Water

• Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil feel dry

• Keep soil evenly moist but not soggy

• Loves a chunky, well-draining mix to protect roots

🌫️ Humidity

• Prefers medium to high humidity

• Normal home conditions are okay, but a boost encourages faster growth and larger leaves

🍽️ Feeding

• Balanced liquid fertilizer every 4 weeks in spring and summer

• Reduce or skip feeding in autumn and winter

🌱 Quick Tips

• Give it a moss pole or support—Joepii is a climber

• Rotate occasionally so it grows evenly

• Not pet-safe—keep away from cats and dogs
