🌱 Care Instructions:

• Light: Philodendron 'Prince of Orange' thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate medium light. Too much direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, so it's best to place it near a window where it receives filtered light.

• Watering: Allow the top 1-2 inches of soil to dry out before watering. This plant prefers even moisture, but be careful not to overwater, as it can lead to root rot. When you water, ensure that the water drains out from the bottom of the pot.

• Soil: Use a well-draining, lightweight potting mix. A mixture with perlite or orchid bark will help improve drainage and air circulation to the roots, which is essential for keeping the plant healthy and preventing root rot.

• Growth: Philodendron 'Prince of Orange' is a moderate grower that can reach up to 2-3 feet tall with the proper care. It’s known for its upright growth habit and its ability to create a stunning display with its colorful foliage.

• Pruning: To maintain a tidy appearance and encourage bushier growth, prune back any leggy or damaged stems. You can also propagate this plant easily through stem cuttings in water or soil.
