Philodendron Mayoi Care Guide
- Light: Bright, indirect light is ideal to maintain vibrant foliage. Avoid harsh direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
- Water: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, keeping the soil evenly moist but never soggy. Ensure proper drainage to prevent root rot.
- Humidity: Prefers high humidity levels (60-80%). Use a humidifier, group plants together, or mist the leaves regularly to mimic its tropical environment.
- Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 60-85°F. Keep it away from cold drafts or sudden temperature changes.
- Soil: Use a well-draining, nutrient-rich potting mix. A blend designed for aroids or indoor plants works best.
- Feeding: Fertilize monthly during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer to encourage lush growth. Reduce feeding in fall and winter.
- Pruning: Prune to remove yellowing or damaged leaves and to shape the plant as needed.
- Growth Habit: Fast-growing and bushy, this plant can trail or climb when supported by a moss pole or trellis.
- Propagation: Easily propagated through stem cuttings placed in water or moist soil.
- Pests: Watch for common pests like aphids, spider mites, mealybugs, and scale. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
- Toxicity: Toxic if ingested by pets or humans; keep out of reach of curious pets and children.

Live Plants – Frequently Asked Questions
Shipping
What size plant will I receive?
What size plant will I receive?
The size shown on the product page refers to the approximate diameter of the nursery pot, not the plant’s total height or width. Plant height, fullness, leaf size, vine length, and growth pattern naturally vary by variety and individual plant.
Will my plant look exactly like the photographs?
Will my plant look exactly like the photographs?
Each live plant is naturally unique. The plant you receive will be the variety and pot size ordered, but its shape, coloration, leaf count, fullness, and maturity may differ from the example photographs. Seasonal growth, recent pruning, and natural variation may also affect its appearance.
Is the decorative pot included?
Is the decorative pot included?
Unless the product listing specifically states otherwise, live plants arrive in a standard nursery grow pot. Decorative planters, baskets, saucers, stands, and other accessories are sold separately. Please review the product title and description to confirm what is included.
When will my plant ship or be delivered?
When will my plant ship or be delivered?
Please allow approximately 5–15 business days for processing and preparation. Five business days is the earliest end of the range, and many orders require most or all of the stated processing window.
Processing time is separate from carrier transit time. Local NYC delivery also requires preparation and does not automatically mean same-day or next-day service.
Orders may occasionally require additional time because of plant availability, order volume, weather, seasonal demand, or courier coordination. We will send an update when confirmed fulfillment, tracking, or delivery information becomes available.
How are live plants packaged?
How are live plants packaged?
Each live plant is inspected and packed according to its size, shape, and shipping needs. Soil and foliage may be secured to reduce movement during transit, and protective materials may be added when appropriate.
Temporary drooping, shifted soil, limited leaf loss, or minor cosmetic stress can occur while a plant adjusts after shipping. This does not necessarily mean the plant is unhealthy.
What should I do when my plant arrives?
What should I do when my plant arrives?
Unpack the plant promptly and carefully remove all protective packaging. Place it in appropriate light and allow it time to adjust to its new environment.
Check the soil before watering. Do not water automatically upon arrival because the plant may already have adequate moisture. Avoid immediately fertilizing, heavily pruning, or repeatedly moving the plant while it acclimates.
Should I repot my plant immediately?
Should I repot my plant immediately?
We generally recommend allowing a newly delivered plant time to acclimate before repotting unless there is an urgent plant-health reason to do so.
Repotting an eligible small plant during the first 15 days may void the Plant Health Guarantee because it can make the cause of decline difficult to determine.
What should I do if my plant arrives damaged?
What should I do if my plant arrives damaged?
Report shipping or delivery damage within 48 hours. Keep the plant and all packaging while the concern is being reviewed.
Please provide your order number, a photograph of the entire plant, close-up photographs of the concern, and photographs of the box and packaging when applicable.
Small plants in nursery pots measuring 8 inches and below may also qualify for our 15-Day Plant Health Guarantee. Large plants in nursery pots measuring 10 inches and above have a 48-hour inspection and reporting window.
Review our Refund & Returns Policy for complete eligibility and documentation requirements.
