Philodendron Gloriosum

Velvety heart-shaped leaves with striking white veins—a true showstopper.

The Philodendron Gloriosum is a terrestrial crawler prized for its large, velvety heart-shaped leaves adorned with prominent white or pale pink veining that creates a stunning contrast against the deep green foliage. Unlike climbing philodendrons, this beauty grows horizontally along the soil surface, making it a unique and dramatic addition to any tropical collection. Each new leaf unfolds with a soft, plush texture that begs to be touched.

Why you'll love it:

• Large, velvety leaves with striking white veins create luxurious visual and tactile appeal
• Unique terrestrial growth habit—crawls horizontally rather than climbing
• Leaves can reach impressive sizes of 30-60 cm with proper care
• Deep green foliage with a soft, plush texture adds premium quality to your collection
• Highly sought-after collector's variety with timeless elegance
• Relatively slow-growing, making each new leaf a rewarding event

Care essentials:

• Light: Bright, indirect light for optimal growth; tolerates medium light but grows slower
• Water: Allow top 2-3 cm of soil to dry between waterings; prefers consistently moist but not soggy soil
• Humidity: Prefers 60-80% humidity for best leaf development and vein coloration
• Temperature: 18-27°C; protect from cold drafts and temperature fluctuations
• Soil: Well-draining, chunky mix with good aeration for the creeping rhizome

Each Philodendron Gloriosum arrives ready to bring velvety elegance and striking beauty to your tropical collection with its magnificent foliage.
