Philodendron domesticum
Need to fill a space? This could be your answer.
Philodendrons are fantastic houseplants that bring size and drama without being a headache to care for. As Philodendrons do grow quite quickly and tend to be on the large size do not be afraid to tame them by trimming any unwieldy growth (you can always propagate this afterwards very easily in water). The domesticum has larger leaves and a spreading nature so may not be suitable for small spaces.
Plant care
This plant needs the following:
Light
Bright indirect light.
Water
Water when the top 3-4cm of soil are dry to the touch, ensuring all excess water is drained away.
Placement
Due to the large size of this plant a living room is probably your best choice.

Top Tip
If the leaves are spreading and unruly you can always bind stems inwards with some string or a pair of old tights - they're perfect for delicate stems!
