Philodendron 'Green Princess': Lush Elegance for Small Spaces

Bring timeless tropical charm into your home with Philodendron 'Green Princess'. This compact hybrid impresses with its deep green, glossy foliage and easy-care nature. Perfect for desks, shelves, or plant stands, it offers bold greenery without demanding constant attention.

Why Philodendron 'Green Princess' Is a Must-Have

Philodendron 'Green Princess' features oval, richly colored leaves with a slightly textured finish. Unlike many sprawling Philodendrons, it grows upright, making it ideal for small urban spaces or for layering into larger indoor plant collections. With minimal care, it rewards you with dense, bushy growth year-round.

Growth Pattern and Size of Philodendron 'Green Princess'

This compact cultivar typically grows up to 50–70 cm tall indoors. With time, it may develop a slight vining habit but generally remains upright unless encouraged to climb. Growth is moderate, with steady leaf production under the right conditions.

Indoor Care Tips for Philodendron 'Green Princess'

  • Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light but tolerates moderate shade. Protect from harsh midday sun to avoid leaf damage.
  • Temperature: Ideal range is 18–27 °C. Avoid exposure below 15 °C.
  • Humidity: Prefers 60% or higher but adapts well to average household humidity without extra intervention.
  • Watering: Allow the top 2–3 cm of substrate to dry between waterings. Ensure consistent moisture but avoid soggy conditions.
  • Substrate: Use a free-draining mix of peat-free compost, perlite, and coarse orchid bark to mimic its semi-epiphytic nature.
  • Fertilization: Apply a balanced (20-20-20) liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength every 4–6 weeks during active growth.
  • Hydroponics: Adapts well to semi-hydro setups (e.g., LECA). Ensure roots are properly rinsed before transfer and maintain hydro-specific nutrients.
  • Maintenance: Regularly prune old or yellowing leaves to maintain a bushy, vibrant shape.

Common Care Issues with Philodendron 'Green Princess'

  • Yellow Leaves: Caused by excess watering or poor drainage. Always allow substrate to partly dry.
  • Root Rot: Avoid waterlogging by using breathable, well-draining substrate and pots with drainage holes.
  • Pests: Check for spider mites, aphids, and scale insects. Treat early using natural insecticidal soap or neem oil.
