Useful Information

Plant Bio

Philodendron Jose Buono is a highly sought-after aroid, celebrated for its large, elongated leaves adorned with striking variegated patterns. This Philodendron cultivar features broad, heart-shaped or paddle-shaped leaves that can reach impressive sizes, displaying a beautiful combination of deep green with irregular splashes and streaks of lighter green, yellow, or creamy white. Its dramatic foliage makes it a prized addition to indoor plant collections in the UK. It is a member of the Araceae family.

The genus name Philodendron comes from Greek words, reflecting the plant's tendency to grow on trees in its native environment. 'Jose Buono' is a cultivar name, honoring an individual named Jose Buono.

Light: Philodendron Jose Buono thrives in bright, indirect light. Strong, direct sunlight can scorch its leaves and diminish the variegation, while insufficient light may result in slower growth and faded patterns. A position near a window with filtered light in a UK home is ideal.

Water: The potting mix should be kept consistently moist but not saturated. Allow the upper inch or two of the soil to dry between waterings. Ensure the pot has excellent drainage to prevent root issues, which can be a common problem, especially in the UK's climate.

Soil: An airy and well-draining potting mix is essential. A mix specifically formulated for aroids, incorporating materials such as coco coir, perlite, and orchid bark, is often recommended to provide the necessary aeration and drainage.

Fertilising: Use a diluted liquid fertiliser every two to three weeks during the active growing period in spring and summer. Reduce or stop fertilising during the autumn and winter months when the plant's growth naturally slows.

Temperature: This plant prefers warm temperatures, ideally between 18°C and 27°C (65°F and 80°F). It should be shielded from cold drafts and sudden temperature changes, which can occur indoors, particularly during colder UK months.

Humidity: Higher humidity levels are highly beneficial for Philodendron Jose Buono. Consider using a humidifier or placing the plant on a pebble tray with water to maintain optimal conditions, especially during drier indoor periods in the UK.

Growth Habit: This Philodendron has a climbing growth habit and will benefit from a support such as a moss pole or trellis to encourage larger leaves and more vigorous vertical growth.

Toxicity: Like other Philodendrons, Jose Buono is toxic if ingested by humans or pets, as it contains calcium oxalate crystals. Keep it out of reach of children and animals.
