Philodendron 'Silver Sword' - Philodendron hastatum

Light - Silver Sword Philodendron easily survives in a wide range of light conditions. However, you can expect robust growth and more vibrant foliage when the plant is grown under partially shaded areas that receive a sufficient amount of indirect sunlight. Avoid exposing the plant to full sun as this can damage the delicate foliage. Meanwhile, you should also observe if your plant is having a leggy stem or exhibits signs of etiolation, as this could signal low light conditions. 

Water - The Silver Sword Philodendron watering cycle is done more frequently. This is because the plant is considered a moisture-loving type. Hence, a little overwatering here and there wouldn’t hurt the plant. You should water Philodendron hastatum when the top two inches of the soil already feel dry to the touch. Watering needs of the plant may also vary with the current season - you should adjust and increase watering in the summer and reduce it later on during winter. Always use a well-draining soil mix and a pot with sufficient drainage holes.
