Philodendron Verrucosum 'Esmeralda' 

A geographically distinct collection of Philodendron verrucosum sourced from the Esmeraldas region of Ecuador, the 'Esmeralda' form distinguishes itself from the standard species and other regional collections by a notably more rounded leaf shape and a particularly vivid, intense red abaxial surface — the deep burgundy-red undersides characteristic of the species here achieving a richness that shows through to the adaxial side, where the luminous pale green to golden venation shimmers against the deep, velvety dark green leaf surface. The characteristic bristle-hairy, reddish-orange petioles of the species are present and, on mature climbing specimens, become increasingly ornate. Like all verrucosum, it is a hemiepiphyte that begins life in the rainforest canopy and eventually sends roots toward the soil below, and it is widely regarded as one of the more demanding but visually rewarding philodendrons a serious collector can grow — the combination of velvety texture, luminous veining, and dramatic red-backed foliage on a vigorous climber is genuinely unmatched in the genus.

This cultivar performs best on a tall, firm moss pole — vertical support is essential, and mature leaves on a climbing specimen are dramatically larger and more ornate than those on an unsupported plant. Provide bright indirect light without direct sun, which scorches the velvety surface; this species also appreciates slightly cooler growing temperatures than most philodendrons, ideally 65-75°F, which reflects its higher-altitude Ecuadorian cloud forest origins. Keep the medium consistently but lightly moist — never waterlogged — using a very open, chunky aroid mix of orchid bark, perlite, and coco coir. High humidity of 70%+ is non-negotiable; below 60% causes rapid browning of the leaf margins and petiole tips. Toxic to humans and pets if ingested.

Long sleeve tee
Size: XX-Large, Color: Wine Red, Size: XX-Large, Color: Wine Red
Ordered this one size up simply due to preference. It runs true to size otherwise. The material is stretchy and the color was accurate. The ribbing sets this apart from other plain long sleeve tees. The only thing I don’t like is the curved hem. Makes it look very girly.

Excellent fit and a good look
Size: Small, Color: Grey, Size: Small, Color: Grey
I'm very pleased with the way this shirt looks on me. Despite being a "squeeze" material, it's quite comfortable to wear. The fit, at least for me, is spot-on. Design-wise, I found that the lines on the front of the shoulders look a little odd, almost like they're supposed to the shoulder seams. But overall, I really like this shirt, and $20 for a shirt that fits this well is a steal.

Bizarre bottom hem shape
Size: Medium, Color: Wine Red, Size: Medium, Color: Wine Red
First, my stats: I’m 6 foot 1, 185 pounds. I ordered a medium size. At first glance, I liked this shirt, but after observing what the bottom looks like, I’m not even sure I want to keep this. A picture is worth many words, so take a look at the ones I included in this review. The bottom hem in the front curves down in a strange sort of “tunic” style. This renders the garment completely unwearable in my opinion, as this is not a shirt that I think would look good tucked into pants. If the bottom of the shirt was flat/straight, it would be four or five stars. As such, I’m rating this three stars because the only thing wrong with this shirt is the bottom, and this might not bother everyone else.

The Perfected Muscle T-Shirt.
Size: Medium, Color: Black, Size: Medium, Color: Black
​This is a great muscle shirt that can be worn many ways. ​My grandson likes it for workouts because the gym (or place) is cold, and this muscle shirt is breathable, comfortable, and stretchy, and doesn't restrict his movements. He also likes that it's a little longer than most muscle shirts. ​But he also loves how good it feels under sweatshirts because it is soft on the skin and doesn't create bulkiness. The color is a true black and it runs slightly big. The length of the sleeves is just right for his long arms. All combined, this shirt is a fantastic value.
