Philodendron 'Golden Dragon' – Rare Hybrid with Dragon-Like Foliage

Philodendron 'Golden Dragon', also known as 'Lime Fiddle', is an unusual hybrid believed to have originated in Thailand, most likely related to Philodendron bipennifolium. Its deeply lobed, dragon-shaped foliage and occasional golden variegation make it a standout among collectors. With fast growth and exotic appeal, this plant is a must-have for anyone seeking to expand their Philodendron collection.

Key Features

  • Unique foliage: Deeply lobed, pinnate leaves with dragon-like form and occasional golden splashes

  • Collector appeal: Highly sought-after for its distinctive leaf shape and exotic character

Care Guide for Philodendron 'Golden Dragon'

  • Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light; avoid harsh direct sun that scorches leaves
  • Watering: Keep soil evenly moist but never waterlogged; allow the top layer to dry slightly
  • Humidity: Enjoys high humidity but tolerates normal indoor levels; add a humidifier in dry climates
  • Temperature: Ideal range is 18 – 27 °C; protect from drafts and heating vents
  • Soil: Airy, well-draining mix with perlite and orchid bark for healthy roots
  • Fertiliser: Use a balanced liquid feed every 4 – 6 weeks throughout the growing season

Common Issues and Fixes

  • Yellowing leaves: Usually from overwatering or poor drainage; let soil dry slightly before watering again
  • Drooping foliage: A sign of underwatering or low humidity; increase watering frequency and boost air moisture
  • Pests: Watch for mites, mealybugs, or fungus gnats; treat with neem oil, insecticidal soap, or biological controls
  • Root rot: Avoid waterlogged soil; prune affected roots and repot in a fresh, well-draining mix

Additional Growing Tips

  • Placement: Choose a bright, filtered-light location away from direct sun
  • Support: Provide a moss pole or stake to encourage upright growth and larger leaves
  • Pruning: Trim leggy growth and remove yellow leaves to maintain a compact, bushy form

Etymology

The genus name Philodendron comes from Greek: philo (“loving”) and dendron (“tree”), describing its climbing nature. The cultivar name 'Golden Dragon' refers to its dragon-like lobed leaves and occasional golden colouration on the foliage.

Great toy my dog loves!
Color: 12 Tennis Ball
My dachshund, Winston, loves these balls because they squeak and of coarse it’s a ball. Only thing is he is destructive and the squeaker doesn’t last long but by far his favorite toy.

Balls need to squeak out of the box
Color: 12 Tennis Ball
The squeaky ball lights up the faces of my dog shelter furiends, they love to fetch and chew the ball to make it squeaky. I have been buying these balls for about a year now. They don’t last long with some of the dogs, but the joy is worth the price. Lately some of the balls do not squeak right out of the box but many of the balls are fine. Returning the box doesn’t make sense because I used some already so I thought I would comment, dropping one star so far.

Nicer than I expected
Color: 12 Tennis Ball
Much more sturdy than other "squeaky" balls of this type. I love that they have an internal or covered squeaker, so I don't have to worry about my dog chewing it and swallowing a plastic squeaker. But ... what I find as a plus, my dog sees as a minus, since one of his favorite thing is to chew a ball until it stops squeaking. They come in a plastic net bag, which is very handy for storage also.

Squeaks break immediately
Color: 12 Tennis Ball
Squeaks break almost immediately, even with very light chewing. Some are so badly made that the squeaks break after one or two squeezes. Get Kong balls instead.
