Due to the sensitive and breakable nature of our products, it's understandable that damages may occur despite our meticulous packaging methods. If you find that your plant or pot has arrived in a less than satisfactory condition, please reach out to us at hello@plantsforallseasons.co.uk within a month of your delivery date.

We are committed to resolving such issues by offering a refund or a replacement, depending on the availability of the item in question.
We are unable to accept returns that are not related to damage because plants are inherently perishable and delicate. It's also worth noting that the plant you receive may slightly differ from the images displayed on our website.

The Philodendron Melinonii, native to the rainforests of South America, is a beautiful, evergreen, tropical plant known for its large, glossy, deeply-lobed green leaves. It is a relatively easy plant to care for and can thrive in indoor environments if given the proper care:
Light: Philodendron Melinonii thrives in medium to bright indirect light. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
Water: This plant prefers consistently moist soil. However, it's important not to overwater as this can lead to root rot. Allow the top inch of the soil to dry out before watering again.
Humidity: Being a tropical plant, it enjoys a higher level of humidity. If your home is dry, especially in the winter months, consider using a humidifier, placing the plant on a tray of pebbles filled with water, or misting the plant regularly.
Soil: Use a well-draining, peat-based potting mix. You can create your own mix with one part perlite or orchid bark and two parts peat or a peat-based soil.
Temperature: Philodendron Melinonii prefers warmer temperatures, ideally between 65°F and 80°F. It does not tolerate cold drafts or temperatures below 55°F.
Fertilizer: During the growing season (spring and summer), feed your plant with a balanced houseplant fertilizer every 2-4 weeks. During the winter months, reduce feeding to once a month or less.
Repotting: Repot your Philodendron Melinonii every 2-3 years or when it becomes root-bound. Spring or early summer is the best time to repot.
Propagation: You can propagate this plant by taking stem cuttings with at least one node. Place the cuttings in water until they grow roots, and then transfer them to soil.
Pest Control: Regularly inspect your plant for common pests like aphids, mealybugs, and spider mites. If you notice any, treat the plant with an insecticidal soap or neem oil.
Leaf Care: Clean the leaves occasionally with a damp cloth to remove dust.
As with any plant, it's important to keep an eye on its health and adjust care as needed. Conditions in your home may require adjustments to watering, light, and feeding. With proper care, your Philodendron Melinonii can grow to be a large, beautiful specimen in your indoor plant collection.
