Pro Tip
Wipe leaves gently with a damp cloth to remove dust and help the plant photosynthesize effectively. For best variegation, give it as much bright, filtered light as possible.
-
Light and Placement
Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain strong variegation. Too little light may cause the white areas to fade or reduce. Avoid direct sun, which can scorch the delicate variegated portions. Ideal near east or north-facing windows, or with filtered light throughout the day.
-
Watering and Care
Allow the top inch of soil to dry before watering. White Princess prefers lightly moist, well-draining soil. Use a chunky aroid mix if possible and ensure proper drainage. Regular misting or increased humidity will support healthy growth, especially in drier environments.
-
Growth and Size
A slow to moderate climber. Indoors, it typically reaches 1 to 3 feet tall, especially when supported with a moss pole or trellis. As it matures, leaf size and variegation tend to become more dramatic.

Pet-Friendly?
Like most philodendrons, White Princess is considered toxic if ingested. It’s best to keep it out of reach of pets. -
