The Philodendron has the second largest number of species in any genus in the Araceae family.
Though the specific number is unknown, Philodendrons usually have very large leaves and the appearance of leaves on a single plant can vary dramatically as maturation of Philodendron leaves does not occur uniformly across the plant.
The berries on Philodendron plants are often toxic. Philodendrons are native to the American tropics.
Although Philodendron plants don’t like complete sun or complete shade, they grow well in almost any light, and a slower than expected rate of growth can almost always be remedied by increasing the amount of light it receives.
Philodendron Gloriosum
Botanical Name: Philodendron Gloriosum
The Gloriosum has large, ornamental leaves. These deep green leaves are made all the more striking by its stark white veins, which cut assertively across the surface of the leaf. The Gloriosum’s leaves have a rich, velvety texture.
The Gloriosum requires a soil that is rich in nutrients and drains well. It does not require more or less water than other Philodendrons, and like its fellows, it should be given time to drain between each watering. The Gloriosum will grow best in bright, filtered shade.
Plant Care
This little guys hates baths, so just a weekly shower will suffice
Well drained
If I said yes… I’d be lying
