Velvet-soft leaves of emerald green and interrupting white veins make up this gorgeous philodendron that goes by the name of Gloriosum. While it does produce classic heart-shaped leaves, with proper care a single leaf can grow to be over a foot in diameter, making for a striking tropical display! Unlike similar plants, it isn't much of a climber. Rather, it prefers to spread out horizontally and send new growth out via rhizomes.

- Prefers high humidity with temperatures between 60-85 F
- Requires low to medium light, near east/west facing windows or interior rooms
- Maintains soft velvety classic leaves that can grow to be very large and present rich green with white veins
- Great for humid spaces, low-light spaces, kitchens, bathrooms, interior rooms
- Low-light tolerant, foliage interest, creeping/spreading
Care Information
- Temperature: For optimal performance, keep at 60-85°F (15-29°C).
- Light: Bright filtered light, imitating what this plant receives in nature, is best. But early morning or late afternoon sun is beneficial when growing indoors. Sunny windows are particularly beneficial in the wintertime if you live in an area with shorter, dark days in the winter time.
- Humidity: These plants prefer high humidity, and maintaining this will also help to deter spider mites which they can be prone to in dry air.
- Soil: Like any aroid, this plant prefers chunky potting mixes that provide plenty of air circulation to the root system. Amending your all-purpose potting mix with perlite and orchid bark is one way to accomplish this.
- Watering: Water when the top 1-2 inches of potting mix feels dry. They don't want to be wet all the time, nor do they want to dry out completely.
- Growing: Feed once per month at half strength when plant is actively growing.
