Philodendron ‘Moonlight’ is a hybrid variety of the very popular and easy to care for genus of common house plants called Philodendrons. This low growing, shrub-like tropical plant has light-green foliage with the new leaves opening up in a bright yellow-green chartreuse color. Its foliage tends to get more coarse with age and its leaves more prominently ribbed. Being a standard Philodendron, it appreciates moderate lighting and has moderate to heavy watering needs but tends to be quite forgiving on both ends of the spectrum. Over time, it can grow quite large: around 20-24” high and 20-26” wide!

USDA Hardiness Zones 11-15

Container Gardens/Terrariums/Houseplant:

Philodendrons are one of the most popular house plants due to their attractive foliage and ease of care. This plant is pretty versatile at different life stages, but can last very long-term as an attractive house plant. It prefers evenly, almost constantly moist soil, but needs drainage and will not do well in a soggy environment.

Josh's Frogs offers a wide variety of glass terrariums, container garden soils, drainage layers and other supplies for all of your indoor gardening needs.

Vivariums/Animal Terrariums:

Being tropical, this plant does great in the high moisture environment of a well-drained vivarium. At the size we sell this plant, it can be kept in most vivariums for about a year. At that point, it might be better taken out and transplanted to allow further growth as a houseplant due to its large growing size.

As good practice, Josh's Frogs recommends washing all plants thoroughly removing as much soil as possible with dechlorinated water before placing them in their final home. Live plants from Josh's Frogs are treated only with products that are OMRI Listed© for use in organic production. Live plants may vary in color, size and appearance.
