The Philodendron Strawberry Shake is a dreamy delight from the Dessert Nebula, serving up swirls of pink, cream, and green like a cosmic smoothie for your space pod! To keep this variegated voyager vibrant, give it bright, indirect starlight, too much sun and it’ll fry like a space waffle, too little and that sweet coloration may fade into the void.
This beauty prefers its roots in well-draining asteroid mix, a blend of chunky bark, perlite, and coco coir to keep things light and airy, just how they like it in zero gravity. Water when the top inch feels like dry Martian crust, no need to flood the launchpad.
Humidity? Yes please! 60% or more will help those juicy colors thrive. Feed monthly during its growth orbit (spring through early fall) with a balanced space fertilizer to keep the variegation tasty and strong.
She’s a climber, so give her a moss pole or space trellis to ascend like she’s reaching for the stars & be patient, growth can be slow, but the payoff is out-of-this-world.
With the right cosmic conditions, your Strawberry Shake will swirl through space leaving a trail of candy-colored foliage and interstellar admiration.
