Philodendron gloriosum

Philodendron gloriosum is a Colombian crawling Philodendron grown for large heart-shaped leaves with a velvety surface and pale venation. Its surface-running stem moves sideways across the substrate and produces one new leaf at a time from the active growing tip. A wide, shallow pot gives the stem room to advance while the root zone stays airy and evenly drained.

The creeping stem has visible internodes and persistent cataphylls, and it belongs at the substrate surface. Roots grow down into the mix while the active tip continues forward across the pot.

Philodendron gloriosum velvet leaves and crawling growth

  • Leaf shape: Broad, heart-shaped blades become larger as the creeping stem establishes.
  • Texture: The velvety surface gives mature leaves a deep green, matte finish.
  • Venation: Pale veins define the blade shape and become more pronounced as leaves harden.
  • Growth habit: A surface-creeping stem needs horizontal pot space and an airy substrate surface.
  • Family: Araceae.

How Philodendron gloriosum creeps across the pot

Philodendron gloriosum develops one leaf at a time from a crawling stem. The stem should stay visible on top of the substrate, with roots growing down into an airy aroid mix. Deep planting keeps moisture around the stem and increases the risk of rot.

As the stem advances, the plant builds a low, spreading shape with new leaves emerging from the active tip. A pot with open substrate ahead of the growing point supports cleaner growth, especially once the stem begins reaching the pot edge.

Care for Philodendron gloriosum crawling stems

  • Pot shape: Choose a wider pot so the creeping stem has room to move forward.
  • Stem position: Keep the surface-running stem visible and clear of wet, compacted mix.
  • Watering: Water when the upper 25–35% of the pot has dried, then let the surface settle before watering again.
  • Substrate: Use an airy aroid mix that holds light moisture while draining quickly around the roots.
  • Light: Provide bright indirect light to support broad leaves and steady growth.
  • Humidity: Moderate to high humidity helps new leaves open with fewer tears or stuck edges.
  • Temperature: Keep it warm, ideally around 18–27°C, and protect it from cold draughts.
  • Fertilizing: Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced fertiliser diluted below full strength.
  • Repotting: Repot when the growing stem reaches the pot edge or root growth has filled the container.
  • Propagation: Stem sections with at least one node can root in a warm, humid setup.
  • Pruning: Remove damaged leaves at the base of the petiole and keep old, wet cataphyll material from collecting around the stem.
  • Mineral substrates: It can adapt to airy semi-hydro or mineral substrates if the creeping stem stays above the wet zone.

Philodendron gloriosum stem and leaf issues

  • Soft creeping stem: Check planting depth and moisture; the stem should sit on top of the mix.
  • Yellow leaves: Often linked to heavy substrate or overwatering around the roots.
  • Torn new leaves: Improve humidity and keep watering steadier while leaves are expanding.
  • Stalled growth: Check whether the growing tip has run out of horizontal space.
  • Pests: Check the undersides of leaves and the petiole bases for thrips, spider mites and mealybugs.
  • Leaf spotting: Improve airflow around the plant and keep the velvety leaf surface dry after watering.

Pet safety for Philodendron gloriosum

Philodendron gloriosum is toxic if eaten and can irritate the mouth and digestive tract. Place it away from pets and wash your hands after handling cut or damaged tissue.

Philodendron gloriosum published name and etymology

The genus name Philodendron comes from Greek roots meaning tree-loving, a reference to climbing and tree-associated growth in much of the genus. Philodendron gloriosum was described by Édouard André and published in Illustration Horticole in 1876. The species epithet gloriosum means glorious or splendid, matching the broad velvety leaves and pale venation seen on mature plants.

Philodendron gloriosum brings a low, spreading growth habit together with large velvet leaves and bold pale veins.

Mom of 3 recommend!
Size: 5T-6T, Unit Count: 14
I'm using these again for the 3rd time and they're great as always. My 3rd is still having some issues at night time with bed wetting, and as they get older the bigger the mess, so these truly hold up to a full bladder. And they don't smell by morning like some diaper brands. I'm usually against pull ups, but these are great for up and down ease of use and that added protection when it comes to potty training. I love the bigger size inclusion for larger children which we struggle with for comfort compared to other brands.

Approved by an Overnight Registered Nurse, Has worked great last 4 years!
Item Package Quantity: 1, Size: 100 Count (Pack of 1)
I have worked overnight as a Registered Nurse for the last 4 of 6 years and I will offer my own experience on how these pills have helped me in my job performance. To start of with I have to say that no two human beings are the same so before I bought these pills I read the good and bad reviews and wasn't sure on the product. I've had heart palpitations in the past from excess caffeine when I drank one of the blue pop top Rock Stars with 1.5 times the caffeine as regular Rock Star and I can say that no, it's not fun at all. I've also experienced when I drink to much caffeine at once and find myself either visiting the restroom many times during a shift, or the crash that comes after the initial burst of energy. Anyways, I can say that with ONE pill a shift prior to going to work, I am able to stay awake and not in a forceful manner without the many negative effects from caffeine that I've experienced in the past. Working night shifts, I've seen how many co-workers need to chain drink coffee all night. I can't say that I don't like coffee, but I don't drink it more than once a week and I prefer not too if I have the chance. This is why I am glad that the Guarana Energizer has worked for me. I am able to be more alert all shift long, not have to struggle with energy or struggle with staying awake, and when I get home I not too wired where I have a hard time going to sleep. On my days off it also works as an excellent energy booster for the mornings to get your energy level going for your day ahead. Also, I've tried other guarana pills when the Source Naturals were no longer in stock (same 900 mg strength), and I have to say that I had to take more than 2 pills per shift to keep me awake, plus they never lasted a full shift. Don't know why the "energizer" term makes a difference, but it does for me. I recommend it to all my co-workers, and when they feel low on energy I've seen that even 1/2 a tab is sufficient for a little pick me up especially for those sensitive to caffeine.

The best guarana I've used - helped me kick energy drinks!
Item Package Quantity: 1, Size: 100 Count (Pack of 1)
I suppose I ought to stand in front of a group of people, and admit to being a caffeine addict. However, I rather like caffeine. I started in on caffeine at an early age- first by drinking soda- mostly cola- as often as my parents would allow. As a teenager, I discovered coffee. Later, it was espresso drinks- I loved a good quad-shot latte, and eventually was getting several a day. A few years ago, my stomach stopped agreeing with coffee as much, so I switched to energy drinks. I was drinking about 4 Rockstars a day. After doing the math, I realized that I was spending around $300 a month on these silly beverages. To economize, I switched to No-Doz. However, it wasn't the same, and it honestly felt... unnatural. The No-Doz sometimes aggravated my stomach, and I just didn't feel as well. Then I tried Guarana, as it is one of the main functional ingredients in many energy drinks. Love it. It seems to last a bit longer (it could be my imagination there, I am unsure), and it definitely feels more natural. I take a few of these per day- and I seem to have less of a "caffeine crash" after 4 hours or so than I once did. It still happens, but it's more gentle. My only complaint is that the pills are rather large- definitely a chore to swallow! Bottom line- this stuff costs just a bit more than a bottle of No-Doz, and is made from natural stuff. It feels healthier, and probably is. I now spend in a month wha I spent in a day on energy drinks. Also- for what it's worth- I've tried other brands of guarana, and this one "feels" best.

Worked well for a few days, then built up a tolerance
Item Package Quantity: 1, Size: 100 Count (Pack of 1)
Guarana for me is one of those things that you should only take every once and a while. It gave me a nice surge of energy for about an hour or so after taking one, then after only a few mornings of taking one I noticed the effect completely wore off. So I stopped taking it for about a week. Then tried taking it again and it still did nothing. Maybe it's just my body, but now I need at least two to notice any effect. It's not that I even feel more alert now, it just makes me feel like I drank to much coffee. I will finish the bottle and then will not buy it again. Different supplements work differently for everyone though! Just because this didn't work for me longterm, that's not to say it won't work wonderfully for you. Trial and error is key with anything like this.
