Philodendron 'Black Cardinal' is a striking tropical plant valued for its deep burgundy to nearly black foliage and compact growth habit. It’s an excellent choice for indoor gardening, as it thrives in low-light environments and is relatively easy to care for. This self-heading philodendron doesn’t climb like many other varieties, making it ideal for pots and indoor settings.

 Plant Description:

- Foliage: The leaves are large, glossy, and oval-shaped. When new leaves emerge, they have a bright burgundy or reddish color and gradually darken to deep green or almost black as they mature. The contrast between the new and old leaves adds dynamic color to the plant.

- Growth Habit: Philodendron 'Black Cardinal' is a self-heading variety, meaning it grows in a rosette-like form rather than trailing or climbing. The plant has a compact, bushy habit, typically growing upright.

- Stems: The stems are thick and sturdy, supporting the large leaves.

 Growing Conditions:

- Hardiness Zones: USDA zones 10-12 for outdoor growth. It’s primarily grown as an indoor plant in most regions but can be grown outdoors in tropical climates.

- Height: 24 to 36 Inches (60 to 90 cm) when grown indoors, although it can grow taller in ideal outdoor conditions.

- Width: 24 to 36 Inches (60 to 90 cm).

- Sun Exposure: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the dark leaves. In low light, the plant’s growth may slow, but it will still maintain its attractive appearance.

- Soil: Use well-draining, rich potting soil. A mix designed for aroids or tropical plants that includes peat, perlite, and orchid bark is ideal. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.

- Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Allow the top Inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so ensure the pot has drainage holes.

- Humidity: Thrives in high humidity, though it can adapt to average indoor humidity levels. Misting the plant or using a humidifier can help in drier environments.

- Temperature: Prefers temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Avoid cold drafts or temperatures below 55°F (13°C).

 Planting and Care Tips:

- Planting Time: As an indoor plant, it can be planted at any time. If growing outdoors, plant in spring or summer in warm climates.

- Repotting: Repot the plant every 2-3 years or when it becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is 1-2 Inches larger in diameter than the current one, and refresh the soil with each repotting.

- Fertilization: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer during the growing season (spring and summer) every 4-6 weeks. Reduce fertilization in fall and winter when the plant’s growth slows.

- Pruning: Prune dead or damaged leaves as needed to keep the plant looking tidy. If the plant grows too large, it can be pruned to control its Size, but typically 'Black Cardinal' maintains a manageable growth rate.

  • Pests: Philodendrons are generally resistant to pests, but occasional infestations of spider mites, mealybugs, or aphids can occur. Wipe down leaves with a damp cloth or use insecticidal soap if needed.   
  • Indoor Plant: 'Black Cardinal' is a popular houseplant due to its dramatic foliage and tolerance of low light. It’s perfect for offices, living rooms, or any indoor space where a bold, low-maintenance plant is desired.

- Tropical Gardens: In tropical climates, it can be used as a focal point in garden beds or containers. Its deep color provides contrast to brighter tropical plants.

- Container Gardening: Its compact Size and slow growth make it ideal for pots, adding a modern touch to indoor or outdoor spaces.

- Air Purification: Like other philodendrons, 'Black Cardinal' helps purify indoor air by removing toxins such as formaldehyde and benzene.

 Native Range:

Philodendrons are native to the tropical rainforests of Central and South America. They grow in the understory of forests, where they receive filtered light and high humidity. While 'Black Cardinal' is a hybrid and not found in the wild, its parent species originate from these tropical regions.

MUST BUY! For large Dogs Safe & Fun! 100lb Dutch shepherd loves this
Size: Large, Color: Blue, Size: Large, Color: Blue
I have 100 pound Dutch Shepherd who likes to chew and he goes through toys pretty quickly. This one he has been chewing on for hours and has not made a dent, not one!! he loves it. He bounces it. It’s very bouncy. I love that about it the engagement with it is great! noise level. It makes some noise. I’ve got wood floors so you can hear it bouncing and the squeak is pretty loud, which is fine with me. It doesn’t bother me. My pet really really enjoys this a lot. I think this is an amazing value for the money because I’ve spent more money on other toys and they fell apart within a day. I think it’s a safe toy because he’s not got a little hard plastic pieces that are coming off of it. It does not break apart very easily and the size is good. it fits in the palm of my hand so it’s pretty good size ball for him. It’s big enough. He cannot swallow it, but he can fit it in his mouth. I think the thing that I like the most about it and he enjoys is that when he drops it, it bounces and he can chase it. Pet enjoyment 10 out of 10 engagement 10 out of 10. I feel it’s very safe dog friendly absolutely must buy hands-down. You will not be disappointed. It’s made of a very strong. I would say rubber and it’s super easy to clean. Just toss it in the sink. Wash it off with soap and water rinse it. It’s good to go. I’m running to buy another one right now as we speak so just in case he loses it, he’ll have a backup.

Great, solid toy safe for my dog
Size: Large, Color: Blue, Size: Large, Color: Blue
This ball is great! My pit bull love toys, especially ones with squeakers, but she’s a power chewer and trashes them almost immediately. Since she’s got a history of swallowing foreign bodies, this means she’s rarely been able to have toys, and when she does get them, it’s short lived. She LOVES this ball and it’s already lasted multiple weeks with no signs of any damage, despite the fact she carries it everywhere and chews on it daily. We don’t have to worry about her safety with this toy, because it’s large and tough enough she can’t swallow anything. It hasn’t lost its squeak either despite all her tough love. She loves to play with it and we’re getting more of them asap so she has a backup if this one gets lost or eventually does break.

Truly indestructible
Size: Large, Color: Blue
They are not kidding, this ball is truly indestructible. I've gotten several for my dogs so they have plenty to share. Two of my dogs are beyond super chewers (bully breeds). One of the balls is missing the section that's glued into most of them, but the structure has still held up. And my dogs LOVE them.

Tough STINKY ball
Size: Large, Color: Red
This ball is the only one I've found that my dog can not destroy in seconds. He can chew on it for a few weeks before he works a hole in it. That's the good part. The bad side is the horrible smell! It doesn't seem to bother him, but it is horrible to my nose. It is so awful that I tried soaking it and dish soap and vinegar water overnight to see if I could make it go away. It was a little bit better but still stunk. Anybody got other suggestions on what could make the smell go away?

A good toy for chewers!!
Size: Large, Color: Blue
My dog loves this ball! The best part is that he hasn't destroyed it yet. He's a real chewer and has destroyed several toys since I got him about 6 months ago. The ball is very solid and a the squeak is not annoying. A great toy
