Philodendron 'Green Princess'

Philodendron 'Green Princess' is a compact green Philodendron with glossy leaves and a naturally tight growth habit. It forms a small, dense outline in the pot, with fresh green leaves held close around a short central stem.

New growth opens bright green, then settles into a deeper glossy tone. Short internodes keep the plant tidy, while active roots allow regular new leaf production.

Compact green traits at a glance

  • Growth habit: Compact self-heading Philodendron with short internodes.
  • Leaf shape: Oval to softly pointed green leaves with a glossy surface.
  • Plant size: Small, tight-growing Philodendron with a contained pot shape.
  • Care needs: Warmth, bright indirect light and careful watering keep the short growth habit neat.
  • Container behaviour: Holds a tidy pot shape with regular rotation and careful watering.

Short internodes and close leaf growth

Philodendron 'Green Princess' develops as a small, leafy cluster. The short stem keeps leaves close together, so the plant can look dense even when young. This tight arrangement also means the base should stay clean and well ventilated. Old leaf sheaths and dead leaf bases can hold moisture, so removing dry material carefully helps protect the central growth.

The leaves are smooth and reflective. They can be wiped with a soft damp cloth when dusty, which is especially helpful on compact plants where leaves overlap. Healthy growth should appear firm, evenly green and well spaced. A plant that starts leaning strongly toward the light is asking for brighter indirect light or more regular rotation.

In indoor containers, Philodendron 'Green Princess' stays at its best when the pot is scaled to the root system. A very large pot can keep the inner mix wet too long, while a tight root ball dries too quickly and slows leaf development. The goal is a breathable mix, steady warmth and enough light to keep the short growth habit neat.

Care for a smaller self-heading Philodendron

  • Light: Bright indirect light keeps the plant compact and helps new leaves size up properly. Avoid harsh direct sun on the glossy leaf surface.
  • Watering: Let the top few centimetres of the mix dry before watering again. Water thoroughly, then allow excess water to drain away.
  • Substrate: Use a loose aroid mix with bark, perlite or pumice. The compact base needs air movement around the roots and lower stem.
  • Humidity: Normal home humidity can be enough, but moderate humidity supports cleaner new growth during active leaf production.
  • Temperature: Keep warm and stable, ideally above 18°C. Avoid cold windowsills combined with wet substrate.
  • Feeding: Use a diluted balanced fertiliser during active growth. Compact plants can show tip burn when overfed.
  • Cleaning: Wipe leaves gently to remove dust and inspect the tight inner growth for pests.
  • Repotting: Repot only when needed. A pot that is too large can keep the root zone wet for too long.

Problems in tight central growth

  • Loose, stretched growth: Usually caused by insufficient light. Move the plant to a brighter indirect position and rotate it regularly.
  • Yellow lower leaves: Check whether the leaf is simply old. Several yellow leaves together suggest excess water, compacted mix or a cold root zone.
  • Brown tips: Often linked to dry spells, fertiliser build-up or inconsistent watering. Check the roots before increasing water frequency.
  • Black marks near the crown: Look for trapped moisture in old leaf sheaths or dense substrate around the stem.
  • Sticky residue or fine webbing: Inspect for scale, spider mites or other pests, especially where leaves overlap.

Philodendron 'Green Princess' grows best with steady, moderate care. Strong fertiliser, oversized pots and constantly wet substrate can damage the compact root zone. Bright filtered light, a breathable mix and careful watering help keep the plant dense and evenly shaped.

Safety for pets and children

Philodendron 'Green Princess' is not pet-safe. Chewed leaves or stems can release insoluble calcium oxalate crystals, causing mouth and throat irritation in pets or people. Keep cuttings and removed leaves away from children and animals, and wash hands after handling sap.

Philodendron name background

Philodendron belongs to Araceae, the arum family. The genus name is built from Greek elements often translated as “loving” and “tree”, reflecting the climbing nature of many wild Philodendron species.

Philodendron 'Green Princess' stays small and glossy, with short internodes and close green leaf growth around the central stem.

Couldn't Put it Down
Format: Hardcover
Hopkinson takes a huge and complex historical event and somehow manages to explain the overarching purpose and events without ever losing sight of the individuals who made it happen. Terrifying, riveting and satisfying in equal measures. Great for young people who want to know more about seminal events (especially ones their relatives may have lived through) and for adults as well. Highly recommended.

Other Words for Home
Format: Hardcover
Other Words for Home by Jasmine Warga is a book that has melted my heart. From the moment I picked up this verse novel, I was engrossed in the story and the courage of the characters.  Jude, the main character, is a young girl from Syria. Her family has been separated by the unrest and violence in her country. To keep Jude and her mother safe, Jude's father has sent them both to live with an uncle in America. Life in America is challenging and scary. Jude is finding herself continually heeding her brother's words to "be brave." Taking his words to heart, Jude holds her head high as she starts school in America, meets new friends, and tries to find a balance between her life in America and her life in Syria. She even emulates his example and makes the choice to audition for the musical at her new American school.  Other Words for Home is a modern-day story of immigration and bravery. It tells the story of one young girl's desire to start her new life in America while she still honors the family and life she left behind in Syria.  It hits on the struggles of fitting in, learning a new language, and the realities of racism and intolerance that happens even here in America.  As I was reading Other Words for Home, I got lost in the poetic words that just flowed from the pages. They were melodic and entrancing. Jasmine Warga has a talent that I would put right up there with other verse novelists, such as K.A. Holt and Kwame Alexander. The verse novel structure was done with perfection, and it was a beautiful asset to Jude's story.

I wrote Jude for my twelve-year-old self, who never saw a brown girl in a book who was proud of her family and where she came from. A brown girl with hopes and dreams of her own.” The voice Jasmine found for her main character, Jude, is astonishingly authentic, wonderfully observant, and filled with love and hope and strength. Jude’s voice combined with the free verse blew me away for its lack of pretension, naturalness, and profound beauty. I was worried that the free verse would feel forced, especially coming out of a twelve year old’s mouth, but instead it’s surprisingly organic and easy to read. ⁣ ⁣ This is a Syrian refugee story that reveals what should be obvious: that refugees want what everyone wants: to be happy, to be safe, and to be themselves. ⁣ ⁣Jude’s story is told with humor and heart and understanding and joy. It’s possibly my favorite book I’ve read so far this year.
