The philodendron is a family of plants that includes over 400 different species. The come in a variety of colors, shapes, and sizes, which means there will likely be at least a few that you LOVE. They are also easy to care for. However, as there are so many different species, the care tips will vary depending on the exact plant that you have.
This is a plant that can be categorized in two ways: non-trailing and vining. The vine plants are great for placing in hanging baskets, where they can be placed around the home or garden. Non-trailing plants are like mini trees that act as statement pieces to any room. The most common type of non-trailing philodendron plant is the lace tree, which is found in homes around the world. They really are beautiful!
The plants don’t just look good either, as they actually work to clean the air in our homes. I believe every home should have a philodendron plant (or another tropical plant) for the healthiest air qualities.
