How Fast Do Hope Philodendrons Grow?
Hope Philodendrons are considered moderate growers and can develop into large, lush plants with the right conditions. During the growing season—spring through early fall—you may see new leaves every few weeks, especially when the plant receives bright, indirect light, regular watering, and good humidity.
Indoors, a mature Hope Philodendron can grow up to 4–5 feet tall and wide, though this can take several years. Growth typically slows in winter when the plant becomes more dormant, which is completely normal.
To encourage healthy growth, provide your Hope Philodendron with a roomy container, well-draining soil, and occasional feeding with a balanced liquid fertilizer during the growing season.
While they don’t grow as quickly as vining philodendron varieties, Hope Philodendrons reward consistent care with dramatic, tropical-looking foliage that brings bold texture and greenery to any space.
