Cleaning Philodendron Leaves

Cleaning philodendron leaves with a cotton ball saturated with milk will remove the dust and let them shine, shine, shine! After wiping off each leaf gently, let air dry. During the process, check the tips for any accumulated milk drop and dispose of with a Q-tip or paper towel. My plants look like they have been treated to whatever a florist uses to make plant leaves shine, but doesn't cost me a penny if I use the milk leftover from a grandchild's milk glass.

I've used mayonaise for 35 years......rub a small amount on a leaf and wipe off with a paper towel. The leaves will glow.....
