1. Lighting: Place your Philodendron 'Painted Lady' in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate lower light conditions, but brighter light will help it maintain its vibrant colors.

2. Watering: Water your Philodendron 'Painted Lady' when the top inch of soil feels dry. Be careful not to overwater, as it can lead to root rot. Allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings.

3. Humidity: Philodendron 'Painted Lady' enjoys higher humidity levels, but it can adapt to average household humidity. You can increase humidity by misting the leaves or placing a tray of water nearby.

4. Temperature: Keep your Philodendron 'Painted Lady' in a room with temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Avoid exposing it to cold drafts or extreme temperature fluctuations.

5. Soil: Plant your Philodendron 'Painted Lady' in well-draining soil. A mix of peat moss, perlite, and regular potting soil works well. Ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent waterlogging.

6. Fertilizer: Feed your Philodendron 'Painted Lady' with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer diluted to half-strength every 2-4 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce or stop fertilizing in the winter months.

7. Pruning: Prune your Philodendron 'Painted Lady' to remove any dead or yellowing leaves. You can also trim it to shape or encourage bushier growth.
