Care Guide:
Light: Philodendron Red Wings thrives in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight as it can scorch the leaves. If the plant is not receiving enough light, its leaves may become sparse and leggy.

Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist, but not waterlogged. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. It is important to avoid overwatering to prevent root rot. Reduce watering in the winter months when growth slows down.

Temperature: Philodendron Red Wings prefers temperatures between 18-27°C. Avoid exposing the plant to temperatures below 13°C as it is sensitive to cold drafts.

Humidity: This plant thrives in high humidity levels. Mist the leaves regularly or place a humidifier nearby to maintain the ideal humidity level of 50-60%.

Soil: Plant Philodendron Red Wings in well-draining, peat-based potting mix to ensure proper drainage. You can also mix in some perlite or orchid bark to promote aeration.

Fertilising: Feed the plant with a balanced liquid fertiliser once a month during the growing season (spring and summer). Avoid fertilizing in the fall and winter when growth slows down.

Pruning: Trim any yellow or dead leaves to maintain the plant's appearance and encourage new growth. You can also prune the plant to shape it and promote fuller growth.

Propagation: Philodendron Red Wings can be propagated through stem cuttings. Simply cut a healthy stem with a few leaves and nodes, and place it in water or moist soil until roots develop.

Overall, Philodendron Red Wings is a low-maintenance plant that adds a pop of colour to any indoor space. This tropical beauty will thrive and is a must have for your jungle vibe!
