Top Philodendrons of the Week: Philodendron Colombia & Philodendron El Choco Red - Info + Care Tips!

Check out some plant tips for two of my favorite heart shaped philodendrons. My #philodendronelchocored and my #philodendroncolombia. I have many juvenile philodendrons but I can’t wait to see how these two specifically mature.

Love your content I truly follow you every episode. I love your energy. Love your plants. Please give us an update with how your Golden Bone plant is doing with the Leca. I love the Coming to America reference lol that was funny. I really wish that you would help me or show me how to plant with a moss pole

[@ILiftPlants]

I sure will. I’m actually going to give an update on all of them I’ve been out of town so hopefully they didn’t all go to plant heaven. Lol

[@jamarkis82]

I’m sure they won’t do that because your to good of a plant Dad but enjoy your vacation bring back a plant we haven’t seen before and something new to your collection we all want to see

[@barbasfear16]

As a collector of Alocasia I am very acquainted with spider mites. The other day I looked over at my paraiso verde and saw webbing. I was so annoyed until I turned the leaf over and found an actual spider 🤣. Also its "North Haven Gardens"

[@ILiftPlants]

Haha. I’ll take a regular spider over a spider mite any day of the week. Lmaoooooooo

[@growfolds]

Plant pests are terrible

[@msladyjune3285]

El Choco will drink a lot of water when it grow larger. Mind drink like it has a habit. 🪴Happy Planting🌿

[@ILiftPlants]

Good to know! Do you have yours growing up a pole, or totem?

[@Suadade1983]

😂 What is that, velvet?👏🏽You’re hilarious.

[@ILiftPlants]

😂😂😂😂😂😉

[@deedee-lightful5710]

Eww...Spider mites. Whenever I get new plants, I'm always praying I won't discover any little pests once I get them home. Guess it just comes with the territory sometimes.

[@ILiftPlants]

I know Dee. In three years never had them. But now I’m aware. A least they didn’t migrate to any other plants. 😂

[@melg8475]

Pests are so....pesty 😖

[@ILiftPlants]

I know. I got the gnats under control. I was so surprised to see the spider mites. I do a good job taking care of these plants! 😔😔😔

[@melg8475]

​@ILiftPlants that's very clear! it's not our fault they are in existence, and it's certainly not our fault when they find their way in. You can do everything and sometimes a dang bugger or two will hide for it's life in some random crevice we just can't get! Bugs are apart of the business. ;) You did great catching it in time! In the wild gnats do great things for the soil, indoors, total aggravation. 🤪
