Care Instructions:

Caring for your Philodendron Jose Buono Tissue Culture Plant is a delightful experience. Follow these care instructions to ensure its optimal growth and continued beauty.

Initial Care: Prior to shipping, this house plant will be carefully packaged with her cup to contain the roots. We will make every effort possible to protect her during shipping. However, there is a chance that some branches may become damaged or some leaves may wilt if the soil gets too dry. Make sure to immediately open the package upon arrival and unwrap your plant. Provide her with water and a chance to settle, and she should be fine. If she is wilting, water and a light misting should help her recover quickly. Once she has had time to recover from the shipping process, please feel free to up-pot her to a new container. She will need chunky soil that is well draining. Do not up-pot into a significantly larger container, as you do not want your plant to spend all her effort on creating roots. She will be much happier with a gradual increase in container size.

Light Requirements: Provide bright, indirect light for your Jose Buono. While it can tolerate lower light conditions, it thrives in a well-lit spot that receives filtered sunlight. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent leaf scorching.

Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water when the top inch of soil feels slightly dry. Adjust the frequency based on environmental conditions and the specific needs of your plant. Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.

Humidity: Philodendron Jose Buono appreciates higher humidity levels. Consider misting the leaves regularly, especially in drier indoor environments. A humidifier or placing a tray of water near the plant can also help maintain adequate humidity.

Soil: Use a well-draining, peat-based potting mix to provide optimal aeration and drainage. A mix designed for aroids or tropical plants is suitable for the Philodendron Jose Buono.

Temperature: Maintain a warm environment, ideally between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Avoid exposing the plant to temperatures below 50°F (10°C), as it prefers a tropical climate.

Shipping and Handling: Rest assured, your Philodendron Jose Buono will be shipped with the utmost care. It will be delivered with its roots and soil intact, securely wrapped to prevent any damage during transit. We prioritize fast and efficient shipping, and your plant will be sent via Priority shipping to minimize time in transit and ensure its safe arrival.
