Known for its adaptability and low-maintenance care, the Philodendron Mayoi offers an exotic touch that plant enthusiasts will appreciate.
Best Locations For Growing Philodendron Mayoi
The Philodendron Mayoi thrives in living rooms, home offices, and bedrooms with medium to bright indirect light. It appreciates high humidity, making it ideal for placement near a humidifier or in bathrooms with natural light. Keep this plant out of reach of pets and children, as it is toxic if ingested.
Sunlight Requirements
This philodendron requires medium to bright indirect light to maintain its glossy, vibrant foliage. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch its leaves. East- or west-facing windows with filtered light are ideal.
Philodendron Mayoi Care
Plant your Philodendron Mayoi in a well-draining aroid mix composed of potting soil, orchid bark, and perlite. Support its climbing habit with a moss pole or trellis to help the plant mature into its full potential. Regularly wipe down its leaves to promote photosynthesis and inspect for pests. It thrives in temperatures between 65°F–80°F and prefers humidity levels above 60%.
Watering Philodendron Mayoi
Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil are dry, saturating the mix until water drains out. Ensure the pot has proper drainage to prevent root rot. Reduce watering frequency during the winter months when growth slows.
Feeding Philodendron Mayoi
Feed every two months during spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength. Fertilizing during the growing season encourages lush foliage and healthy root development. Refrain from fertilizing during fall and winter when the plant is dormant.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
