Part of what makes the philodendron lemon lime easy to maintain is that it can grow even in low lighting, but keep an eye out for droopy leaves as this could mean it needs more exposure. Less light will also likely mean less water.
You can train the vine to grow upright as it will try to climb as it would in the natural state.
This is easy to accomplish.
Find a few pieces of rod of any material. Plastic, wood or metal and insert it into the pot but make sure it is stable. The philodendron will try to climb up it over a period of time.
You can encourage climbing by using wire ties to attach the branches.
