It is thought to be one of many unnamed species collected by Burle Marx himself, but some believe the plant is a hybrid. It sports layers of green-grey foliage that are prominently veined with deep green. This is a slow growing house plant, but very easy to care for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eLight Needs Philodendron Burle Marx Fantasy\u003c\/h2\u003e Give them bright indirect sunlight, medium is ok too. No direct though. \u003ch2\u003eHow Often To Water\u003c\/h2\u003e Check the soil weekly and water it if the top half is dry. They must not be overwatered as they get root rot easily, so do not be tempted to give them more if they don’t need it. Make sure there is not water left over in the saucer or external container after water as this can also lead to soggy soil and root rot. This is really important, they can get root rot easily. \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTip: the best advice I can give for philodendrons is do not let them sit in soggy soil. The soil should be well draining with plenty of perlite, and when you water it, the excess water should be able to run off, or just tip it out of the tray\/saucer at the bottom of the pot. Don’t soak it with loads of water either, give it just enough so that water just about starts to drip out the bottom of the pot Then only water them when the soil is mostly dry. If in doubt, underwater them.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eFertilizer\u003c\/h2\u003e You can encourage growth by giving them a balanced feed every 3 or 4 weeks in the spring and summer. \u003ch2\u003eSoil\u003c\/h2\u003e Your philo burle marx fantasy wants a well draining medium as they can get root rot from sitting in wet soil. I would advise a mix of perlite and orchid bark with normal soil is a good idea. For more on making your own soil see our guide: Philodendron Soil. \u003ch2\u003eWhen to Repot Philodendron Burle Marx Fantasy\u003c\/h2\u003e Check them early Spring time and repot if they’re root bound, or you can repot them in the same pot in any case, just to refresh the soil. You want to make sure the roots have plenty of space to grow over the forthcoming warmer months. \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTip: give them a moss pole or trellis to help them climb, keep them sturdy and to show off those impressive leaves.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eHumidity\u003c\/h2\u003e Aim for 50-60% humidity or more, and they should thrive. You can use a humidity meter to monitor it, get one with maximum and minimum read outs on it so that you can see what it drops to at night. \u003ch2\u003eTemperature\u003c\/h2\u003e Try to keep them in the range 18°C to 25°C (64-77°F) for the daytime and above 10°C (50°F) at night. \u003ch2\u003eHow to Propagate Philodendron Burle Marx Fantasy\u003c\/h2\u003e Take a stem cutting with one node and one leaf and root them in sphagnum moss. You can root them in soil, water or perlite too, but these tend to so really well in moss. They grow very slowly and moss seems to give them what they need: air and moisture at the roots. Use a clear cup so you can monitor root growth. Once it has established a good root system, which may take up to 3 months, you can then plant them up into soil and treat them as a juvenile plant, and give them a pole or trellis. \u003cfigure\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/www.teakandterracotta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Philodendron-Burle-Marx-Fantasy-leaf-close-up-1024x1024.jpg?ezimgfmt=rs:773x773\/rscb1\/ng:webp\/ngcb1\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.teakandterracotta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Philodendron-Burle-Marx-Fantasy-leaf-close-up-1024x1024.jpg?ezimgfmt=ng:webp\/ngcb1 1024w,https:\/\/www.teakandterracotta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Philodendron-Burle-Marx-Fantasy-leaf-close-up-300x300.jpg?ezimgfmt=ng:webp\/ngcb1 300w,https:\/\/www.teakandterracotta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Philodendron-Burle-Marx-Fantasy-leaf-close-up-150x150.jpg?ezimgfmt=ng:webp\/ngcb1 150w,https:\/\/www.teakandterracotta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Philodendron-Burle-Marx-Fantasy-leaf-close-up-768x768.jpg?ezimgfmt=ng:webp\/ngcb1 768w,https:\/\/www.teakandterracotta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Philodendron-Burle-Marx-Fantasy-leaf-close-up-75x75.jpg?ezimgfmt=ng:webp\/ngcb1 75w,https:\/\/www.teakandterracotta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Philodendron-Burle-Marx-Fantasy-leaf-close-up.jpg?ezimgfmt=ng:webp\/ngcb1 1080w\" alt=\"Philodendron Burle Marx Fantasy - leaf close up\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\"\u003e\u003cfigcaption\u003ePhilodendron Burle Marx Fantasy – leaf close up\u003c\/figcaption\u003e\u003c\/figure\u003e \u003ch2\u003ePhilodendron Burle Marx Fantasy Mature\u003c\/h2\u003e It takes for the plant to mature and put out those characteristic leaves.
