The Heartleaf Philodendron (Philodendron hederaceum) is a popular, low-maintenance vining plant known for its glossy, heart-shaped, solid green leaves. It is perfect for adding a lush, tropical feel to any space and makes a fantastic addition to bioactive setups for terrariums, vivariums, or paludariums due to its easy-care nature and ability to thrive in various conditions.

Care Instructions

LIGHT. Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light levels. However, its growth may slow, and the leaves might lose some of their vibrancy in low light. In a bioactive setup, place it near a light source but avoid direct sunlight, which could scorch the leaves.

SOIL. A well-draining, loose soil mix is ideal. A blend of coconut coir, perlite, and orchid bark will help maintain aeration and proper drainage, which is essential for healthy root growth. In a bioactive environment, this mix will also allow decomposers like isopods and springtails to thrive by breaking down organic matter and enriching the substrate.

WATERING. Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Let the top 1-2 inches dry out between waterings. In bioactive setups, the decomposers (springtails and isopods) will help balance moisture levels by consuming excess organic matter, which helps prevent over-watering. Avoid leaving the soil overly wet for extended periods.

HUMIDITY. Being a tropical plant, the Heartleaf Philodendron thrives in high humidity, making it ideal for bioactive setups. Aim to keep humidity levels above 60% to encourage healthy, lush growth.

TEMPS. Prefers warm temperatures between 65°F and 80°F (18°C to 27°C). Avoid placing it in drafty areas or areas with cold temperatures to prevent stress.

FERTILIZATION. During the growing season (spring and summer), feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks. You can also use our dissolvable Mealworm Frass, produced by our mealworm colonies and enriched with a variety of vegetation, as a nutrient-pumped fertilizer. In the winter, reduce feeding as growth slows down.

Cohabitation with Bioactive Organisms

ISOPODS. Isopods are ideal for a Heartleaf Philodendron setup. These decomposers will break down dead plant matter, fallen leaves, and uneaten food, helping to maintain soil health and nutrient levels. The plant also benefits from the organic material provided by the isopods.

SPRINGTAILS. Springtails are great companions for Heartleaf Philodendron in bioactive setups. They help maintain soil health by consuming mold, fungi, and decaying organic matter. Their constant activity helps keep the environment clean while benefiting the plant by breaking down organic matter into nutrients.

Soil and Maintenance Tips

SUBSTRATE. A loose, well-draining mix is crucial. Use a combination of coconut coir, orchid bark, and perlite to allow for root aeration while ensuring that decomposers have the proper environment to thrive. You can also add a layer of activated charcoal at the bottom for better filtration and odor control.

HUMIDITY CONTROL. If needed, increase humidity by incorporating a shallow water dish or misting lightly once a day. The springtails and isopods will help keep the soil moist, and your plant will benefit from the additional humidity.

TRIMMING. Heartleaf Philodendron grows quickly and can be easily trimmed to maintain a neat appearance or encourage fuller growth. Periodically trim the vines to keep them in shape. You can propagate cuttings in water or soil, which is a great way to expand your collection.

PEST CONTROL. This plant is generally pest-resistant, but in a bioactive environment, springtails and isopods will help control minor pests such as mealybugs or aphids by feeding on their eggs or larvae.


With its vibrant, glossy, heart-shaped leaves, the Heartleaf Philodendron is a beautiful and resilient addition to any bioactive setup. It thrives alongside decomposers like isopods and springtails, which contribute to a healthy, nutrient-pumped environment. By mimicking its tropical habitat with proper humidity, light, and well-draining soil, you’ll create a thriving ecosystem where both your plants and bioactive creatures can flourish.

Good 😊
Flavor Name: Zero Sugar Beef, Size: 6oz (Pack of 12)
I’d rather reviews on these before purchasing them and I didn’t think I was gonna like it. I seen a lot of bad reviews lotta negativity, but I was impressed. They’re actually good a little greasy not too much. They were not mushy at all. Remind me of a slim gym, but not that greasy. I normally eat a different brand, but I really like this and I will buy it again. I recommend it. I wasn’t going to try it because a lot of the reviews weren’t too good that I was reading but they’re good. I like them, but I’m glad I tried it and they are zero sugar.

Delicious and Healthy Snack with Unmatched Flavor and Texture
Flavor Name: Traditional, Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
As someone who is constantly on the lookout for tasty and healthy snacks, I recently came across these Droewors Beef Sticks, and I have to say, I'm truly impressed. The unique air-drying process, combined with the use of vinegar, cloves, and coriander, gives these beef sticks a fantastic flavor that is not only mouth-watering but also worlds apart from other meat sticks I've tried in the past. Pros: Unique Flavor - The combination of spices and the air-drying process creates a taste that is both savory and satisfying. Texture - The coarse ground beef provides a buttery smooth texture that doesn't leave your hands greasy, unlike other meat sticks. Keto, Paleo, and Whole 30 Friendly - These beef sticks fit well with a variety of diets, making them a versatile snack option. High Protein Content - With more protein per ounce than other meat sticks, they're a great natural alternative to protein shakes for muscle fuel. No Sugar - The absence of sugar means no sugar rushes or mood swings, making it a great option for a healthy diet. Cons: Price - These beef sticks might be a bit more expensive than other brands due to their high-quality ingredients and production process. However, I believe the unique flavor and health benefits make the price justifiable. In conclusion, these Droewors Beef Sticks are a delicious and healthy snack option for those following Keto, Paleo, or Whole 30 diets, or simply looking for a tasty protein-packed snack. The unique flavor and texture, coupled with the high protein content and absence of sugar, make these beef sticks stand out from the crowd. While they may be a bit pricier than other meat sticks, the quality and taste make it well worth the investment. Highly recommended!

Good Food
Flavor Name: Traditional, Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I have had South African Billtong before and I loved it, so I thought I would try SA Droewars and see if they were as satisfying. The answer is yes! They are delicious and nothing like your typical mass marketed jerky snacks sold in the US. Droewars are lightly seasoned beef jerky sticks and, although I have not seen the numbers, they seem to be only lightly salted (important for me). The meat is not chewy or grisly, so the beef cuts they use must be prime. This is the first time I have tried the Ayoba-Yo brand and I am happy with my purchase. I am awaiting delivery of several varieties of Billtong from Ayoba-Yo presently and I will report back. Not inexpensive, but the value is there for sure. Jimmy

Almost not edible
Flavor Name: Traditional, Size: 2 Ounce (Pack of 3), Flavor Name: Traditional, Size: 2 Ounce (Pack of 3)
I am south african, an afrikaaner. I grew up eating droewors and biltong. I'm not sure what went wrong with this product. I have to believe it was off quality product and not what they are choosing to ship. The flavor was ok. Nothing spectacular. Thr big issue was texture of the droewors and the fact that the meat had shrunk away from the casing leaving the casing inedible. See my pic. This is not what droeworse looks like. Also, being from south africa I've never heard anyone say the word ayoba....
