Combo of Alocasia Melo + Philodendron Nangaritense

Melo: 3-5 inches
Nangaritense: 5-8 inches

The Alocasia Melo prefers bright, indirect light. Place it near a window with filtered sunlight or provide bright artificial light if necessary. Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves. The Philodendron Nangaritense also thrives in bright, indirect light. Place it in a location with moderate to bright indirect light, avoiding direct sunlight.

Both plants have specific watering needs. The Alocasia Melo prefers to be kept consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water it when the top inch of soil feels slightly dry, ensuring thorough watering until water drains from the pot's drainage holes. However, avoid letting the plant sit in standing water.

The Philodendron Nangaritense requires a similar watering routine. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out partially between waterings. Thoroughly water the plant, ensuring water drains out completely. Avoid overwatering or allowing the plant to sit in excess water, as it can lead to root rot.

Both the Alocasia Melo and Philodendron Nangaritense thrive in well-draining and nutrient-rich growing media. A combination of peat moss, perlite, and high-quality indoor potting mix provides an ideal medium for their growth. This mixture allows for proper drainage while retaining adequate moisture and providing essential nutrients.
