I. Light:

VIII. Support:

  1. Sturdy Pot: Plant in a sturdy pot to support the weight of the foliage, especially as the plant matures.
  2. Moss Pole for Climbing: Provide a moss pole for support if you want the Philodendron Squamiferum to climb.

IX. Repotting:

  1. When Root-Bound: Repot when the roots outgrow the current container, typically every 1-2 years.
  2. Spring Ideal: Repot in spring when the plant is entering its active growth phase.

X. Propagation:

  1. Stem Cuttings: Propagate through stem cuttings with at least one node, ensuring a portion of the stem is included for rooting.
