Philodendron 'McColley's Finale'

Philodendron 'McColley's Finale' is a self-heading Philodendron cultivar with glossy new leaves that open chestnut red, deepen through bronze-red tones, and mature to green with warm shading. The plant forms a dense rosette from a short central stem, filling the pot with layered colour from the crown outward.

Philodendron 'McColley's Finale' was selected from hybrid Philodendron plants of unknown complex hybrid parentage. Its background traces to the Orlando-area programme started by Robert H. McColley and continued by Cora McColley with Dr Howard N. Miller.

  • Growth habit: Self-heading rosette with very short internodes and a dense, pot-filling shape.
  • New growth colour: Fresh leaves emerge glossy chestnut red before shifting through bronze and green.
  • Patent background: Hybrid Philodendron selection with unknown complex parentage.
  • Breeding line: Part of the McColley/Miller Orlando-area Philodendron programme.

Red new growth from the McColley programme

Philodendron 'McColley's Finale' grows from a short central crown with leaves arranged closely around the plant. Mature plants usually become much wider than tall, forming a broad rosette that shows both fresh red growth and older green leaves at the same time. The dark petioles and cataphylls add colour even between new leaf flushes.

Each flush changes colour as it matures. New leaves carry the strongest red, then darken and settle into green with a residual warm tone.

Light and watering for a compact rosette

  • Light: Give bright filtered light to support colourful new leaves and a dense crown. Avoid harsh midday sun on glossy young foliage.
  • Watering: Water when the upper 3–4 cm of substrate feel dry. Avoid letting water collect around the crown.
  • Substrate: Use an airy, well-draining aroid mix. The roots need moisture below, but the base should not sit in stale wet soil.
  • Humidity: Average to moderate household humidity is usually manageable, though steadier humidity helps new leaves expand cleanly.
  • Temperature: Keep it warm, ideally 18–28°C, and protect it from cold drafts or cold windowsills.
  • Pot choice: Use a pot with drainage and enough width for the rosette. Oversized pots can keep unused substrate wet for too long.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth to support regular leaf production and steady colour cycling.

Crown issues to catch early

  • Yellowing and soft tissue near the base: Check for overwatering or compacted substrate. Improve drainage and let the surface dry between waterings.
  • Weak new colour: Check light levels and plant vigour. The strongest colour appears on healthy new leaves in bright filtered light.
  • Brown tips: Check watering consistency, fertiliser strength, and mineral build-up in the substrate.
  • Distorted new leaves: Inspect the crown and leaf bases for thrips, scale, or mealybugs before the pests spread.

Safety for pets and handling

Philodendron 'McColley's Finale' is not safe to chew or ingest. Like other Philodendrons, it contains calcium oxalate crystals that can irritate the mouth, throat, and stomach. Keep it away from pets and children, and avoid contact with sap around sensitive skin or eyes.

Name and breeding background

Philodendron is a genus in the Araceae family, with a native range from Mexico to tropical America. The cultivar name 'McColley's Finale' reflects the McColley breeding background; the patented plant came from unknown complex hybrid parentage within the Orlando-area programme associated with Robert H. McColley, Cora McColley, and Dr Howard N. Miller.

Philodendron 'McColley's Finale' carries chestnut-red new leaves, glossy green mature foliage and a compact self-heading rosette.

WEIRD feature - requires a water bottle
Color: Cow, Size: Large
Cute, but buyer beware. Maybe the description said this, but who would think to read for this.... You have to insert an empty bottle (like an old water bottle) for it to make the crinkle noise. There is a velcro spot at the base where you can open it and insert the water bottle for the noise factor and your dogs entertainment. I've yet to do that, but feel like my dog is gonna figure out the velcro and get the bottle out in no time. Seems like a waste of money. I could just give her an empty water bottle without the toy for free.

Best dog toy!
Color: Multicolor/Alligator & Wild Duck, Size: Medium, Color: Multicolor/Alligator & Wild Duck, Size: Medium
Best dog toy! Most dog toys lady maybe a week or less but this one has been going strong for almost 2 months. Both the squeekers still work on both toys i purchased. My vizsla loves ti squeek and carry it around. We added an empty water bottle in the pocket cavity for some extra fun! Yes, we are still on the same water bottle! Fantastic durability.

Shows wear quickly
Color: Multicolor/Sheep & Cow, Size: Medium
These are cute but not holding up as well as I had hoped. Quality is ok and the Velcro has held up great. The fabric just isn’t as good as it could be. They are much larger than expected.

Super Sturdy with hours of fun.
Color: Wild Duck, Hare, Squirrel & Alligator, Size: Small
I got the small ones that you cannot put a water bottle in. These toys have held up way better than expected. I am dog sitting a very rough with toys dog named Chunk. He tears up ever. Single. Toy my dog (Ted) has. I bought new ones just for chunk. These appealed to me with the no stuffing, They were cheaper, and have a squeaker. Everything chunk needed. They arrived on time and I thought I wasted my money. They were super soft, like too soft. They felt flimsy and weak. Like 5 minutes with chunk and they be dead. 2 hours with my dog and they would have a rip. So far 2 of them (I set two out) have lasted the whole weekend. The bunny looks very rough and disgusting, but no rips, the squeakers still work, and no random fluff everywhere. I am going to wash the bunny once chunk leaves. My very careful doggo Ted loves them too. He throws them up in the air and catches them, plays tug of war with them, and no rips. They are super sturdy. He can’t wait until Chunk leaves (chunk is 2 and Ted is 12-13) so he can play with them.

Loved it
Color: Brown/Wild Duck, Size: Large, Color: Brown/Wild Duck, Size: Large
He loved it so much, he destroyed it so we ordered another. I didn't realize that you can stick an empty water bottle inside. Again, the first one didn't last long, but he enjoyed it
