The Philodendron 'Strawberry Shake' is a rare and highly sought-after variety known for its stunning variegated leaves, which feature a blend of green, cream, pink, and red hues. Each leaf is unique, with splashes of color that can vary from subtle pastel shades to vibrant, bold patterns, reminiscent of a strawberry milkshake.
- Light: This Philodendron thrives in bright, indirect light. Too much direct sunlight can cause the pink variegation to fade, while too little light may lead to leggy growth.
- Watering: Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil are dry to the touch. Be mindful of overwatering, as it can cause root rot. Adjust watering frequency based on the season and humidity levels.
- Humidity: The 'Strawberry Shake' prefers higher humidity, ideally above 60%. A humidifier or regular misting can help maintain the desired environment.
- Temperature: Keep the plant in temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Avoid cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.
- Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix with added perlite or orchid bark to ensure proper aeration and prevent the soil from becoming waterlogged.
