How to root your Philodendron Brasil cutting
Philodendron Brasil is one of the easiest indoor plants to propagate and you can choose to root your cutting directly in soil, water or in your choice of propagation substrate such as sphagnum moss, fern fibre, leca etc.
Water propagation is the fastest and easiest way to root your Philodendron Brasil cutting. Fill your glass or jar with filtered water or allow the tap water to sit out in the open for a while to let the chlorine dissipate. Submerge the lower 1-2 nodes of your cutting in the water with the leaves up above. Make sure that no leaves are touching the water as this could lead to rot.
Then, place in a warm spot that receives plenty of bright, indirect light (no direct sun though) and change the water regularly until the roots are at least an inch long and your cutting is ready to be planted in soil.
Philodendron Brasil Plant care
Philodendron Brasil tolerates low light but prefers bright, indirect light. Its well-draining soil should dry halfway before watering.
This plant likes warmer room temperatures, can handle normal humidity and is hardy against pests and disease. Fertilize regularly during the growing season.
