Philodendron Rojo Congo is native to South America, specifically regions in Brazil and neighboring countries. Its natural habitat is the rainforests, where it thrives in the warm and humid climate. This philodendron typically grows upright with a bushy habit, making it a fantastic choice for enhancing interior decor or filling a corner that needs a dramatic touch.
Rojo Congo's most notable feature is its deep, velvety, burgundy-red leaves. These large, heart-shaped leaves have a glossy sheen, adding a touch of luxury to any space. The contrast between the red foliage and the plant's green stems creates an exquisite visual display.
As with many Philodendrons, the Rojo Congo contributes to improved indoor air quality by helping to remove common pollutants and toxins, making your home a healthier place to live. It's also considered relatively easy to care for, making it a good choice for both novice and experienced plant enthusiasts.
Philodendron Rojo Congo is not primarily grown for its flowers, and it is relatively rare for it to produce blooms when cultivated as a houseplant. However, when it does flower, the blooms are typically inconspicuous and pale in color.

Rojo Congo prefers bright, indirect sunlight, but it also tolerates medium light conditions.It needs at least a few hours of light daily. Avoid harsh direct sun to prevent scorching leaves.
This plant prefers slightly moist but not waterlogged soil. Water thoroughly and drain well after each watering. Check the soil twice per week and only water when the top 1" of the soil is dry to the touch.
Rojo Congo likes rich soil that can retain some moisture, but the soil should also drain well to prevent root rot. It is recommended that you mix some peat with general houseplant soil to improve drainage.
This plant grows best in normal room temperatures (between 65°F-80°F). It does not grow well in temperatures below 50°F and over 90°F. Red Congo thrives in normal indoor humidity, and it is recommended that you mist your plant and use a humidifier when the environment is too dry (humidity level falls below 50%).
This plant should be fertilized once during the growing season (spring/summer) with diluted houseplant fertilizer.
Rojo Congo plant is toxic if ingested, so keep it out of reach of pets and children.

The 5 love languages themselves are simple enough to "get
As an educator of 25 years plus experience, I always go back to reading and re-reading this timeless book by Dr. Chapman. What a blessing it is for the parents of teenagers and those who work with teens. The 5 love languages themselves are simple enough to "get," but putting them into practice can be a bit difficult for parents. Have no fear: there are plenty of examples and case studies in the book that will "spark" ideas or plans in the reader's mind. The last few chapters on how to deal with parental anger and different family structures are also very helpful. My only one regret: I wish someone had recommended this book to me when my kids were 9 or 10 years old. Get this book. It can be a game changer.

helpful and timely
I love the tone of this book. The author comes across well, with the whole goal being to get to know our teens at the heart level.
I found myself wanting to see my kids in this same light, as wonderful people God positioned in my life for me to know and interact with. Just that part would have made this book worthwhile. It really did help to change my heart toward them.
There were some areas where I felt entitled to respect from them, but those thoughts were dashed as I realized I owe them only love. The author also addressed every question that came up, such as, "Isn't that indulgent?" "What about discipline?" "If I just love them, won't they walk all over me?" Those questions proved I just didn't understand the meaning of the word Love. These questions were particularly answered in the chapters about acts of service and gifts, two love languages that can easily be misused by both parents and teenagers. I learned some things I'd never thought of, such as making a ceremony out of gift giving, in order for it to be accepted as a gift rather than just something a son or daughter is entitled to. About acts of service, I appreciated the advice to serve, all the while explaining what we are doing, so that they will never misunderstand and think they are entitled to acts of service, and also that they will not miss what we are doing is expressing love.
Something else that was new to me, and I hadn't counted on, was the moodiness of teenagers. I didn't know that was common and that it will be outgrown. I know, I should have known, I was obviously one at one time, but I missed the obvious, and had some aha moments personally, when I read this book. I hadn't known that there is no need to be offended or intimidated by these moody spells, but to lovingly address the person just as if they were not.
There was a whole chapter devoted to finding out our teens' love languages, and even how they might have changed dialects by growing up.
The book is up to date, acknowledging that there are cell phones and electronics, and how this affects today's teens so much more than the previous generation.
The reason I don't give it five stars is because I thought the author could have used more examples of interests kids could have. So many of the examples and suggestions involved either peer relationships, homework, or sports, all areas where I thought kids would be displaying false personalities. I would have liked to read more examples about family activities in the home, where everyone tends to be more like themselves, and where the reality of their life will lie as soon as they graduate from school. It could also be that we are farming, and our lifestyle is very home centered instead of business trip/9 -5 hours oriented, and I just couldn't relate to those examples. Anyway, that small concern didn't take much away from a great book, There is so much wise advice here, that we could easily fill in our own examples from our life. This is a book I'm glad to have in my library and one that I will read again.

A worthwhile read for anyone who deals with teenagers and adolescents
Format: Kindle
Mr. Chapman’s series on the Five Love Languages is excellent reading for anyone who feels disconnected in their ability to love someone else effectively, and this book is an excellent addition. Teenagers are special little monsters who are transitioning from being cute kids to ugly adults, so they have to take it out on the world. Dr. Chapmen’s work helps to restore a level of humanity to them that can be forgotten by those on either side of that great transition into adulthood.

A MUST for parents of teens
Honestly. I wish I’d read this before my first child was a teen and not my last. This book is a GAME CHANGER, as is the original. So much insight into how to better connect with and truly make them feel loved.

Highly recommend
Format: Paperback
I have read the love languages for kids when my child was about 7 and I found it very helpful and gave me a very different perspective on handling issues that would come up. I purchased this book, more out of curiosity as I don’t have a difficult relationship with my teen but I found it very eye opening. It not only helped me realized things about my own childhood but also a better way to handle issues with my teen. I think this book is good for anyone who wants a closer relationship with their teen, anyone having trouble parenting their teen or anyone who simply wants to be the best parent they can be. This book could be the thing to change your perspective and your relationship with your teen. Don’t hope you and your child can have a good relationship when they are an adult. Be proactive and have one now so that when they do go off to college, they do want to come back home.
