Philodendron Gloriosum is the best option if you want to experience a truely tropical atmosphere in your urban jungle. Highly coveted for its exquisite heart-shaped leaves, which are gilded in a velvety sheen and have striking white veining. With proper attention and space, the wide, velvety leaves of this houseplant can spread to a whopping 90 centimeters.

Since the Philodendron Gloriosum spreads rapidly, it can be used to cover any empty spots in bookcases or on display shelves, though works just as well as a floor standing specimen when it gets larger. The Gloriosum Philodendron, like all Philodendrons, is exceptionally low maintenance and mildly tolerant of neglect, making it a fantastic choice for first-time plant parents. However, if you want it to stay looking perfect, you'll need to provide it with adequate humidity and a source of bright indirect light.

Add one of our gorgeous planters to the order and let this magnificent houseplant shine.

Please note: Philodendron is known to cause stomach upset if eaten, keep out of reach from pets and children who think houseplants are food.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS
