Philodendron
This genus of plants is suited to indoor growth as in their native environment they grow in dense forest with dappled light and misty moist atmosphere and preferring to be left undisturbed.

When used indoor place in a bright indirect position and maintain humidity by placing in a saucer of water. Keep the leaves clean and mist with water during summer or when the winter heater has dried the air. 

Re-pot every two to three years with a drainage layer in the bottom of the pot of rubble then mulch the top with moist peat moss.

They prefer a constant temperature of 18ºC (65ºF) though will tolerate a wide range.
