Ring of Fire Philodendron

Ring of Fire is a named Philodendron in the Araceae family. [1]

Its narrow leaves develop serrated edges and mixed green, cream, lime and gold markings. Younger foliage can be more lightly toothed than mature leaves. [2]

Place Ring of Fire in bright indirect light and keep it out of direct sun. [3]

Review new growth for long, weak stems if the spot becomes too dim. [6]

Choose an organic, well-drained houseplant mix with air spaces around the roots. Check the rootball before choosing a container; unused wet medium should not surround a small root system. [4]

Use a pot with drainage holes. [8]

Warm rooms with steady conditions suit this tropical foliage plant. Average household humidity is often workable; move it away from cold windows and forced-air drafts. [4]

Feed during active growth at the product label rate; pause when growth slows. [9]

Prune only when size or damaged foliage requires it. Use gloves, and make stem cuts near a leaf joint; support elongated growth if it becomes unstable. [5]

As daylight weakens, review the window position and rotate the pot for even exposure. [6]

Feed during active growth. In slower periods, wait for surface drying before watering; do not keep the mix saturated. [5]

Ring of Fire combines toothed margins with several foliage colors. Golden Xanadu offers a lower, broader lobed canopy; choose the silhouette that fits the available space. [2][18]
