Give your space a tropical vibe with the Lickety Split Philodendron. A native of South America, the Lickety Split Philodendron, also known as Lacy Tree, Horsehead, or Philodendron bipinnatifidum, has deeply-lobed leaves with a slight ruffle. The unique leaf shape is eye-catching and gives this plant a textural element. The light-green midrib and veining stand out against the dark green of the foliage. The Lickety Split Philodendron is easy to maintain once you understand what this stunner needs.

Best Locations For Growing Lickety Split Philodendron

The main requirements when choosing a spot for the Lickety Split Philodendron are sunlight and space. This plant needs plenty of sunlight, and while houseplants do not grow as large as plants outside, it will still get rather big. An open area near east- or south-facing windows will be a wonderful spot for this tropical beauty.

Lickety Split Philodendron Sunlight Requirements

The Lickety Split Philodendron is adaptable when it comes to sunlight and can live in medium to bright indirect light. The plant may fail to thrive in low light, and the leaves may turn yellow. Avoid direct sunlight, which can burn the lovely leaves. 

Lickety Split Philodendron Care

This plant may become leggy with age. Overgrowth can be trimmed to encourage new leaves and a bushy look. The best time to prune a plant is before a regular fertilizer dose. Increase the light after pruning Lickety Split to help support new growth.

Watering Lickety Split Philodendron

Feel the soil to gauge the level of dampness, and water when the top few inches of soil are dry. Overwatering is a bigger problem than underwatering, so wait another day or two if you are unsure when to water. When watering, thoroughly wet the soil until excess water drains through the holes in the pot. The Lickety Split Philodendron can live in average humidity, but high humidity is best. Mist the leaves or use a pebble tray to keep the greenery full and lush.

Feeding Lickety Split Philodendron

The Lickety Split Philodendron responds well to regular feedings during the growing season. Use a balanced, water-soluble plant food once per month. The Lickety Split Philodendron is a large, fast-growing plant, and fertilizing it will support new growth and help the plant reach its potential.
