Aroids are a type of houseplant that thrive in warm, humid environments. As such, temperature plays a critical role in the growth of these plants. Too much heat can cause the leaves to wilt and the roots to rot, while too little heat can stunt the growth and cause the plant to become weak and vulnerable to disease.

The ideal temperature for aroid houseplants is between 65 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Anything above 80 degrees can be too hot for the plant, while anything below 65 can cause it to become stressed. It is important to monitor the temperature of your aroid houseplant’s environment to ensure it is not too hot or too cold.

In addition to temperature, humidity is also an important factor in the growth of aroid houseplants. They thrive in a humid environment of around 60-70%. If the humidity is too low, the plant can become dry and brittle, while too much humidity can cause the plant to become soggy and vulnerable to disease.

By monitoring the temperature and humidity of your aroid houseplant’s environment, you can ensure that it grows healthy and strong. With the right conditions, your aroid houseplant will be sure to thrive!
