Philodendron Burle Marx

Philodendron Tiger Tooth

A climbing house plant!    Leaves are a dark glossy green.  This plant is poisonous.  Fertilize every month during the spring through fall with a water soluble fertilizer.  Too much plant food causes excess salt build up in the soil that can result in leaf burn.  

 - Bright indirect light.  Lower light leaves turn dark green.

- Warm temperatures above 55 degrees.  Keep away from drafts and open doors.

- Grows best in rich, slightly alkaline soil

- Moist soil-during the winter, water less often, keeping the soil barely moist.

- Native to South America

* Like all philodendron, can be toxic if ingested by humans or pets.
