  • Botanical Name: Philodendron 'Green Congo Nuclear' Hybrid
  • Common Names: Congo Nuclear, Green Congo Nuclear, Neon Philodendron
  • Growth Habit: Upright, self-heading, non-climbing
  • Appearance: Large, paddle-shaped leaves with marbled green/white or green/yellow variegation

The Philodendron 'Green Congo Nuclear' is a rare, self-heading (upright) plant known for its unstable, vibrant streaks of cream, lime, and dark green. It requires bright, indirect light, well-draining aroid soil, and moderate-to-high humidity (50–60%). Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil are dry, and feed monthly during spring/summer

Key Care Guidelines
  • Light: Provide bright, indirect light to maintain variegation. Too little light causes slow growth, while direct sun can scorch leaves.
  • Watering: Water thoroughly when the top 1-2 inches of soil are dry. Avoid prolonged dryness or waterlogging.
  • Soil: Use a well-draining, aerated, peat-based, or chunky aroid potting mix.
  • Humidity & Temp: Prefers 50-60% humidity and temperatures between 65-85°F.
  • Fertilizer: Feed every 4-6 weeks during spring and summer with a diluted, balanced fertilizer.
  • Maintenance: Clean leaves with a damp cloth to remove dust. This plant does not require a moss pole as it is a self-heading, bushy grower.
  • Toxicity: Toxic to pets and humans if ingested
