Your Xanadu Guide: How easily your baby grows big and strong!
You've snagged a very special baby plant! But don't worry, raising it is easier than you think. With these tips you'll give your Philodendron Xanadu everything it needs for a perfect start in life. Let's grow!
🌱 The perfect spot: light, but no sunburn
Your Xanadu loves bright light, but please avoid direct midday sun. Imagine it growing on the floor of a jungle, where only filtered light shines through the canopy.
- Ideal: A spot near an east- or west-facing window.
- Also good: A bright spot without direct sunlight or a few meters away from a south-facing window.
- Tip: Rotate the pot every few weeks so your baby grows evenly on all sides.
💧 Water with care: less is more
Waterlogging is the biggest enemy! Your Xanadu likes to be slightly moist, but not wet. The rule of thumb is simple:
- Stick your finger about 2–3 cm into the soil. If it feels dry, it's time to water.
- Water until a little runs out of the bottom of the pot. Pour away any excess water in the saucer after 15 minutes.
💨 Humidity: A touch of tropical spa
As a tropical plant, the Xanadu loves higher humidity. That keeps its leaves juicy green and shiny.
- Mist it every few days with low-mineral water — a little wellness shower!
- Alternatively, place a bowl of water next to the plant or put it in the bathroom (if it's bright enough there).
💚 Nutrients: power snacks for growth
During the growth period from spring to autumn your baby Xanadu is hungry. Give it the energy it needs for its magnificent leaves.
- Fertilize every 4 weeks with a liquid houseplant fertilizer at half strength.
- In winter it takes a little break — you don't need to fertilize then.
You got this! Watch your plant, enjoy every new leaf, and see how your little treasure turns into a real showpiece.
