The Philodendron Squamiferum is a rare and unique plant known for its elongated, deeply lobed leaves and distinctive red, hairy petioles (stems). It’s a relatively easy-to-care-for Philodendron, but it does require some attention to thrive. Here’s a guide to caring for your Philodendron Squamiferum:

Philodendron Squamiferum prefers east or south facing indirect light. Too much direct sunlight can scorch its leaves, while too little light can slow its growth and cause the leaves to lose their vibrant color and shape. A spot near a window with filtered light is ideal.

Water your when the plant is completely dry. Be careful not to overwater, as it can cause root rot. Always ensure the pot has good drainage. During the winter months, you can reduce watering frequency, as the plant’s growth slows down.

This plant thrives in warm temperatures between 65-80°F . It does not tolerate cold drafts or temperatures below 50 degrees, so avoid placing it near air conditioners or windows that get chilly.

Philodendron Squamiferum enjoys higher humidity levels (50% or more). If you live in a dry environment, you might want to mist the leaves regularly, use a humidifier, or place a humidity tray near the plant to keep it happy.

A well-draining, light and airy potting mix is best. You can use a general-purpose indoor plant mix with added perlite or orchid bark to ensure good drainage and root aeration. 

Feed your Philodendron Squamiferum during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced fertilizer every 4-6 weeks. In fall and winter, you can reduce or stop fertilizing, as the plant’s growth slows.

Pruning isn’t necessary unless you want to control the size or shape of the plant. Cut back any leggy or damaged stems. You can also propagate your plant by cutting a healthy stem with a few leaves and rooting it in water or soil.

While the Philodendron Squamiferum is generally resistant to pests, it’s still good practice to check for common houseplant pests like mealybugs, spider mites, or aphids. If you find any, treat the plant with insecticidal soap or wipe the leaves with a damp cloth.

Best sunscreen
Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
My family and I use only Blue Lizard sunscreen. We think it's coverage and sun protection works best.

Waterproof
Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This product is great for kids in the pool or ocean. It is very waterproof and you can even see the water beading on top of the sunscreen. It doesn't go on super clear, which can be an advantage for determining coverage. One other unique feature is the bottle itself changes color to indicate it is currently exposed to UV light although that is basically anytime you walk outside in daytime.

Good sun protection but leaves white streaks after sweating
Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I really wanted to like this sunscreen after seeing it make a lot of lists for best sunscreen for runners. But for whatever reason, about 15-20 minutes into my runs and I've started really sweating, I see white streaks in my elbow crease. I've started developing weird tan lines in my elbow crease if I don't consciously try to re-rub and re-spread the sunscreen in my elbows periodically during my runs. If I only use the sunscreen for lower impact activities, I don't get the white streaks. It's as if from the sweat it pools the minerals from the sunscreen into my elbow crease. But yet I don't have that problem with the sweat mix with my sunscreen on other parts of my body. I've also switched to Australian Gold Botanical Mineral sunscreen which ironically isn't meant for sports, but I don't have the elbow crease white streaks issue with that sunscreen. I will say, this Blue Lizard sunscreen does rub and spread easily and doesn't leave a white cast after rubbing it into my skin. Although it does feel mildly greasy after I'm done applying it everywhere. I've switch to Australian Gold Botanical Mineral sunscreen which doesn't feel greasy but it does leave a slight white cast on my tan skin, but I'll rather have that than deal with frequently needing to re-rub/re-spread the sunscreen in my elbow creases when white streaks form.

Go to sunscreen!
Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Mineral based sunscreen was recommended to me after second degree burns. I love how the bottle changes color when UV is bad.
