Philodendron gloriosum – Velvety Leaf Aroid Houseplant

Philodendron gloriosum is a highly sought-after aroid prized for its large, velvety, heart-shaped leaves adorned with striking pale veins. Unlike climbing varieties, this philodendron is a slow-growing crawler, with each new leaf unfurling along a creeping rhizome. It brings a lush, tropical feel to any indoor space and is a favourite among aroid collectors.

Each plant comes with a QR code for care instructions. Avoid repotting or major changes for 1–2 weeks after arrival. Our plants are shipped in standard nursery mix – to provide the best growing condition use only good quality potting mix designed for aroids.

How often should I water my Philodendron Gloriosum?: Water the plant when the top of the soil feels slightly dry. Be careful not to overwater by letting the plant sit in water, as this could lead to root rot.
What is the best light condition for maintaining the vibrant variegation of the leaves?: Place your plant in a spot with bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, while too little light might cause the variegation to fade.
Is the Philodendron Gloriosum suitable for beginners?: This plant is a great choice for beginners due to its easy-care nature and robustness, making it forgiving to some common care mistakes.

☀️ Light

☀️☀️▫️ (Medium)

The Philodendron Gloriosum thrives in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight as it can scorch the leaves. A spot near a window with a sheer curtain would be perfect for just the right amount of filtered light.

💧 Water

💧💧▫️ (Medium)

Keep the soil lightly moist, allowing the top half to dry out before watering again. This plant enjoys consistent moisture but dislikes waterlogged conditions, so ensure your pot has good drainage.

🌡️️ Temperature

🌡️️🌡️️▫️ (Average)

Philodendron Gloriosum prefers a warm environment with temperatures ranging from 18°C to 24°C. Keep it away from draughty areas and sudden temperature changes to maintain a stable growing condition.

💦 Humidity

💦💦💦 (High)

This plant loves high humidity. Consider placing it in a kitchen or bathroom where humidity levels are naturally higher, or use a humidifier to boost the moisture in the air around it.

🪴 Repotting

Philodendron Gloriosum grows along a creeping rhizome and prefers a wide, shallow pot. Repotting should be done every 2-3 years or when the plant outgrows its pot. Use a well-draining aroid mix to ensure optimal growth.

🐾 Pet Friendliness

This plant is not pet-friendly. It can be toxic if ingested by pets, so it’s best to place it out of reach of curious cats and dogs.

🪴 Recommended Locations at Home

Place your Philodendron Gloriosum in a living room near a window with indirect sunlight, or in any well-lit room that does not experience temperature extremes. Its striking foliage makes it a perfect focal point for interior decorations.
