Philodendron Splendid — Rare Velvet Leaf Hybrid (verrucosum × melanochrysum)

The Philodendron Splendid is a testament to horticultural artistry — a hybrid that masterfully combines the best attributes of its parentage: the iridescent, velvety sheen of Philodendron melanochrysum and the distinct, textured petioles of Philodendron verrucosum. Each emergent leaf unfurls in a deep, jewel-toned green with prominent, pale venation, maturing into a spectacular heart-shaped blade that can reach impressive dimensions when allowed to climb.

Care Requirements

  • Temperature: Stable ambient conditions between 18–24°C; avoid draughts and sudden drops typical of European winters.
  • Humidity: Non-negotiable at 70–85%; a greenhouse cabinet or vivarium is ideal.
  • Light: Bright, indirect light mimicking the dappled light of its ancestral rainforest floor — never direct sun.
  • Substrate: A bespoke soilless aroid mix to ensure optimal root aeration and prevent waterlogging, critical for this sensitive hybrid.
  • Fertilising: During the active growth period (March–September), a balanced fertiliser diluted to half-strength every third watering supports robust foliar development.
  • Support: Provide a moss pole or coir totem to encourage climbing and promote larger, more defined mature leaf morphology.

FAQ

How can I encourage mature leaf morphology in Philodendron Splendid?

To promote larger, more defined leaves, provide a moss pole or coir totem for climbing, mimicking its natural hemiepiphytic growth. Maintain high humidity (70–85%) and bright, indirect light (approx. 1,000–2,000 foot-candles). A feeding regimen with a balanced liquid fertiliser including micronutrients, every 2–4 weeks during the active growing season (spring through late summer), is crucial for mature expression.

What is the ideal substrate composition for a mature Philodendron Splendid?

A chunky, well-aerated aroid mix is critical to prevent root hypoxia and subsequent rot. We recommend a soilless blend: 40% orchid bark, 20% perlite, 20% coco husk chips, 10% sphagnum moss, and 10% activated charcoal. This composition ensures excellent drainage and gas exchange while retaining adequate moisture for the root system.

Is Philodendron Splendid susceptible to specific pests under European indoor conditions?

Yes. Its velvety leaves are particularly attractive to spider mites (Tetranychidae), especially in lower humidity environments (<60%). Regular inspection of leaf undersides is advised. Thrips are also a known pest. Proactive integrated pest management (IPM) using beneficial insects like Amblyseius swirskii or horticultural oil applications during warmer months is an effective preventative measure.

Mouse Pad Charger
Color: Black-27.5"x11.8"
I absolutely love the mouse pad. It fits my 17.3 inch laptop nicely and my mouse. It's great for charging my phone next to me while I work. Unfortunately, it does not work for the Air Pods. It must be for an older version. Nonetheless, it's still a great buy.

A good product
Color: Black-27.5"x11.8"
Size is accurate and this is important in my situation as I use a pull out key tray and wanted edge to edge coverage. Depth is good but in my case I would have liked a deeper dimension as an option. Phone charger works well, the mouse slides smoothly

Will not charge your phone
Color: Black-Stock Market-31.5"x15.8"(with Wall Charger)
I love this mat, but it doesn't do what it says... I bought this mat for the candlesticks! The charging station was a bonus. It is very large and covers my working area, which I like. But when I go to charge my phones, it doesn't work! I placed my Android phone on the magnetic charging circle, and it showed the lightning bolt charging icon. I looked at it 5 minutes later to see how much it charged, and it was at the same % when I put it on, and the lightning bolt was gone. I tried three times, and it never charged! I then tried with my Apple phone, and the same thing, it doesn't charge. Buy this for the mat's aesthetics only; don't expect it to charge phones or earbuds...

Cute jewelery holder
Color: C Blue
I was looking for something simple to hold some necklaces and earrings. I do the have much because I'm not much into jewelry but I didn't want to just sit them in a bathroom drawer. This jewelry rack is so convenient and doesn't take up a lot of room. Fits the bill just right.
