🔆Light: This plant prefer bright indirect light becausedirect sunlight can cause burning on the leaves. This makes them perfect plants for a north-facing window.
Light through a window is not direct sunlight as the light will be filtered as it comes through the glass, which impacts its intensity. This means that this light can be at least 50% less intense than direct outdoor sunlight, although sunlight through a south-facing window can be close to direct light. Philodendron can survive with very little light but will grow faster and healthier in bright indirect light. Indoors, set them up by a window that gets bright, indirect light. Too little light can result in leggy growth with lots of space in between the leaves.
