Philodendron Melanonii Variegated requires consistent humidity and bright, indirect light to maintain its striking fluorescent green variegation. Overexposure to direct sunlight can cause the variegation to burn, so it’s best to keep it in a location with filtered light. It needs well-draining soil, and overwatering should be avoided to prevent root rot. Regular watering is necessary, but the soil should dry out slightly between waterings.
