Philodendron Likety Split

A ruffled, deeply lobed split‑leaf philodendron with bold texture and easy‑care temperament.

Description

Philodendron Likety Split is a self‑heading, non‑climbing selection celebrated for its dramatically cut, ruffled leaves that create a lush, architectural silhouette. Compared with the classic split‑leaf types, this cultivar stays more compact and forms a dense, rounded clump—perfect for bright living rooms, shaded patios, and tropical gardens in frost‑free climates. Thick, glossy leaves with deeply serrated lobes add year‑round texture and movement. Easygoing by nature, it tolerates a range of indoor conditions while rewarding good light and steady moisture with vigorous warm‑season growth.

Care Tips

Planting instructions icon
Planting Instructions
Use a pot with drainage; set the root crown at soil line (do not bury the stem). For outdoor planting in frost‑free zones, choose dappled shade and space 3–5 ft apart. Acclimate to brighter light over 7–10 days.
Soil moisture icon
Soil Moisture
Keep evenly moist but never soggy. Water when the top 1–2 in (2.5–5 cm) of mix is dry; reduce frequency in winter.
Soil type icon
Soil Type
Chunky, well‑draining aroid mix: ~40% potting mix, 30% fine bark, 20% perlite/pumice, 10% compost; pH 6.0–7.5.
Humidity icon
Humidity
Prefers 50–70% RH. Tolerates average indoor humidity; improve with pebble tray, humidifier, or grouping plants. Provide light airflow.
Pruning icon
Pruning Instructions
Remove yellow or damaged leaves at the base with clean, sharp shears. Rotate the pot periodically for even growth; wipe leaves to remove dust.
Winter care icon
Winter Care
Protect from temps below 55°F (13°C). Keep away from cold drafts; provide bright light and reduce watering/fertilizer until days lengthen.
Planting depth icon
Planting Depth
Set the root ball level with the surrounding soil; top of root crown should be visible at the surface. In containers, allow 1–2 in of fresh mix around the root ball.

Feed every 4–6 weeks in spring–summer with a balanced liquid (½ strength) or apply slow‑release granules in early spring. Flush the pot quarterly to prevent salt buildup.
