How to care for a Philodendron 'Ring of Fire'
Watering Philodendron 'Ring of Fire'
The Philodendron 'Ring of Fire' prefers even moisture without getting its feet wet. Water about once a week, depending on the room temperature and humidity. Allow the top layer of potting soil to dry slightly before watering again to prevent root rot.
Light for Philodendron 'Ring of Fire'
This plant thrives in bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can burn the leaves, but low light will dampen the colorful markings. Therefore, place your Ring of Fire near an east- or west-facing window, perhaps alongside a Monstera Deliciosa or a Pothos Marble Queen for a playful plant nook.
Common problems
Yellow leaves
Yellow leaves on the Philodendron 'Ring of Fire' are often caused by overwatering or insufficient light. Check regularly that the soil isn't waterlogged and adjust your watering schedule. Move the plant to a brighter spot if the light intensity is too low.
Plant dripping
Sometimes you might see moisture dripping from the leaves; this is guttation and usually nothing to worry about. It happens when the plant absorbs too much water at night and then releases excess moisture. Adjust your watering and, if necessary, lower the humidity slightly to alleviate this.
Plagues
Spider mites, thrips, or aphids can all damage your Ring of Fire when humidity is low. Check the undersides of the leaves weekly for small insects. At the first signs, treat with our sticky traps against fungus gnats and, if desired, spray with an organic plant spray.
Roots emerge from the bottom of the pot
When roots grow out of the drainage holes, it's time to repot. Choose a pot one size larger than its current size and use airy potting soil, such as our potting soil for aroids . This will give the Philodendron 'Ring of Fire' room to grow again.
Brown edges on the leaves
Brown edges can indicate overly dry air or too much direct sunlight. Increase the humidity by using a plant mister or humidifier. Move the plant a little further away from the window or place it a little further inside to prevent sunburn.
