Philodendron El Choco Red Large
Temperature: Prefers temperatures between 65-85°F (18-29°C) and should be kept away from drafts or extreme temperature fluctuations.
Light: Requires bright, indirect light to thrive. Direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, while too little light can cause leggy growth.
Water: Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil is dry, allowing excess water to drain out. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot. In the terrarium, use a drainage layer of rocks or charcoal to prevent water from pooling at the bottom.
Care/Maintenance: Prune any leggy growth to encourage bushier growth and repot every 2-3 years to refresh the soil and provide more space for root growth.

ProRep Live plant. Philodendron El Choco Red Large
General Information: Philodendrons are popular houseplants known for their heart-shaped leaves and low maintenance care requirements. They can thrive in a variety of lighting conditions, making them a versatile choice for terrariums.
Apart from the aesthetic appeal of a planted terrarium there are some very real, tangible benefits for the animals. Living plants provide natural cover and climbing perches, shade, basking sites and maintain natural humidity. Just as live plants in an office can improve workers well-being, live plants in a terrarium will have the same effect for animals.
These plants are not just small houseplants but are a selected range of species that are ideally suited to the terrarium, including some of the more unusual or rare types. We have carefully selected the range so that there are plants to suit all habitats and growth patterns. There are succulents for arid environments, bromeliads, ground cover plants and epiphytes for jungle set up’s as well as aquatic plants and mosses.
These plants enhance your pet’s terrarium, creating a natural and attractive environment. See our bioactive set up kits.
Over 40 different plant species are available in the range including Philodendron El Choco Red Large. For advice on turning your pets tank bioactive, or anything else, please contact us.
