ABOUT THE PLANT 

Philodendron Xanadu, also known as Philodendron bipinnatifidum ‘Xanadu,’ is a popular and versatile plant that belongs to the Araceae family. It is known for its attractive foliage and compact growth habit. Here is some information about Philodendron Xanadu:

1. Appearance: Philodendron Xanadu features large, deeply lobed leaves that are typically a vibrant shade of green. The leaves have a glossy texture and are deeply divided, giving them a unique and eye-catching appearance. The foliage forms a dense and bushy clump, creating a lush and tropical look.

2. Growth habit: This Philodendron variety has a compact and mounding growth habit. It typically grows to a height of 2 to 4 feet (60 to 120 cm) and can spread to a similar width. The plant produces multiple stems that emerge from a central point, creating a dense and full appearance.

3. Light requirements: Philodendron Xanadu thrives in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate lower light conditions, but it may exhibit slower growth and reduced leaf coloration. Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.

4. Temperature and humidity: This plant prefers temperatures between 65°F and 85°F (18°C to 29°C) and appreciates higher humidity levels. It can adapt to average household humidity, but it will benefit from increased humidity. Regular misting, using a humidifier, or placing the plant on a pebble tray filled with water can help create a more humid environment.

5. Watering: Water the Philodendron Xanadu thoroughly when the top inch (2.5 centimeters) of soil feels dry. Allow the excess water to drain out from the pot to prevent waterlogged roots. Avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot.
