Blushing Philodendron – Resilient, Dark, Mysterious
Transform any room with the Blushing Philodendron! The burgundy-tinged foliage matures into deep, glossy tones. This tall, dark, and beautiful plant adds refined drama to living areas or offices, evoking an upscale yet inviting ambience. Ideal for those who appreciate living décor with a bold, contemporary edge.
Plant Personality & Aesthetic Appeal
New leaves emerge in a rich burgundy-red, gradually darkening to nearly black with a subtle sheen. Their broad, oval shape and slightly undulating margins lend a sculptural quality to each stem. In minimalist interiors, these leaves become focal points, contrasting beautifully with neutral palettes. In more eclectic schemes, they layer texture alongside woven baskets or ceramic planters. Place this plant on a desk beside a softly lit lamp, on a sideboard among framed art, or on a slim pedestal in a corner. It even works as a standout accent on a floating shelf.
Growth Habit & Size Potential
Unlike climbing philodendrons, the Blushing Philodendron forms a self-heading clump, reaching 60–90 cm in height and spreading 30 to 45 cm across. Growth is moderate: expect one to two new leaves each month during spring and summer. A 12 to 15 cm pot will allow this plant to thrive. It can allow for expansion before repotting is needed. If you want denser growth, prune spent stems at the base. No moss pole or trellis is required because its upright habit and predictable spread make it an excellent floor-standing or tabletop choice.
Light & Location Needs
This variety of plant flourishes in bright, indirect light, ideally near an east- or west-facing window. Direct midday sun can scorch new foliage, while too little light will dull its signature burgundy hue and slow leaf production. In lower-light corners, it will survive, though colour intensity and growth rate diminish. It also adapts well to a covered balcony or glazed conservatory, provided it is shielded from harsh afternoon rays. Do rotate from time to time to ensure even leaf growth.
Care Level & Maintenance Tips
Water once the top 5 cm of soil feels dry, typically every 7 to 10 days, using filtered room-temperature water. A free-draining mix with equal parts loam-based compost, orchid bark, and perlite maintains moisture without waterlogging. Feed this plant with a balanced, dilute houseplant fertiliser monthly in spring and summer; withhold feed in autumn and winter when growth slows. This philodendron is toxic if ingested, so keep out of reach of pets and children. Avoid overwatering and exposure to cold drafts, both common causes of yellowing leaves and stunted growth.
The Blushing Pride with the Blushing Philodendron
Why bring home this Blushing Philodendron? Don’t just do it for the visual impact - though you certainly could. Studies in biophilic design suggest that richly textured plants like this reduce stress levels and enhance concentration. Gazing at the dark, lustrous leaves can provide a calming reset even during the most hectic of workdays, making it an ideal companion for home offices. Although not exactly known for its air-purifying abilities, its presence still aids humidity balance. When close to seating areas or bedside tables, you feel that extra sense of relaxation and tranquillity. Vibes, you know?

Essential reading for a fuller and more accurate comprehension of American history
Format: Hardcover
I'm not in the habit of writing reviews, but I strongly recommend Hitler's American Model as critical reading for our political moment, especially given the conversations about racism, antisemitism, and white supremacy that the Trump administration and Charlottesville have bought to the fore. It's imperative that we understand the depth of racism integral to American policy making and execution. Numerous European countries recognized America as the world's leader in racist legislation, and American immigration, naturalization, and antimiscegenation law influenced the Nazi legislators who crafted the Nuremberg Laws. They did not import American legal policy and praxis wholecloth, but studied it deeply as a precedent for not just a race-based, but a racist, system of laws that privileged the "master race" over the inferior dilutors of that race--in the Nazi case, the Jews. American exclusion and criminalization of non-white people proffered a blueprint of inspiration to Nazi radicals, who engaged intimately with it in the hopes of carrying it out to its logical extent: an openly racist legal system that drove out the racially decrepit to foster a pure Aryan state.

America's Fascist Governments
Format: Hardcover
"Love it" is not the correct phrase for how I related to the book.
An important book for which I am thankful sobered and shamed by the book, better express my feelings.
America to our lasting shame was the Mid-Tewentith Century global leader in the law of racial disenfranchisement & suppression despite our constitution to the contrary. That we were one model for Nazi race law is an abomination, a stain we can never remove.
Professor Whitman though is generous to America, and this old, white, Tennessean, believes incorrect, when he states (p. 145) that the Nazi's went beyond American racism by creating, "...something different: the "organization of a fascist state"." The author is correct that the United Staes of America was itself not a "fascist state". However, within the United States, at least at the county level, governments existed and were tolerated by the federal government, that were indeed fascist in all but name. One-party county governments based on white supremacy and dedicated to maintaining white rule, black poverty & political powerlessness, racial purity & separation, at any cost including murder, existed in the South, in Tennessee, long before Hitler. These Southern county governments were very effective police states that employed government led white terror to control African Americans. White terrorists county governments they were. Fascist they were. Americans organized fascist local governments long before Germans organized on a national scale and streamlined their murder machine. Americans fascists killed fewer, but kill they did.

Impressive sources, sophomoric writing.
Format: Kindle
Should everyone read this book? Certainly. But the writing is too poor for me to offer an enthusiastic four or five star recommendation. I'm surprised an editor did not clean this up so that the book could live up to its eye-opening content.
This already short book has quite a lot of distracting, repetitive padding. Symbolic of this is the use of the phrase "of course" - it appears thirty times.
More repetition appears in the author's needless (and, I would say, presumptuous) dwelling on the reader's emotional reactions to the content of the book: the idea that America might have influenced the Nazis is "too awful to contemplate," and "is sure to seem distressing," and "hard to digest," and "no one wants to imagine" it, and "none of this is entirely easy to talk about," and "it is hard to look coolly on the question," and "it is hard to admit," and "no one wants to be perceived as relativizing," and "no non-Germans want their country to be accused," and "it is hard to overcome our sense that..." and "painful though it may be for us to admit..." and "awful it may be to contemplate," and "the story of American influence...is certainly depressing," and so on and so forth. Nevertheless, "To be sure, we must keep our composure..."
This repetition gets exhausting in a single 56-word sentence invoking the phrases "true nefandum...abyss of unexampled modern horror...sui generis radical evil...a sort of dark star."
More padding appears in the author's concern with arguing against weak positions: "We can, and should, reject the sort of simple-minded anti-Americanism..." "It would be a mistake to draw overblown conclusions..." Well, yes, simple-minded anything is to be rejected, as are overblown conclusions about anything. But that doesn't stop the author from presenting repetitive arguments.
Additional filler that an editor should have excised is in the form of these phrases, which read like a student trying to hit a required word count in a term paper: "It is important to note that..." "In particular it is essential to emphasize..." "We must bear that fact in mind..." "It is an unpleasant truth that..." "Worthy of attention above all is..." "It is particularly noteworthy that..." "Sahm is a particularly noteworthy author..."
Finally, the author descends into a kind of bullying that indicates a lack of confidence in his own presentation: "Our literature has taken a crass interpretative track." "It is a major interpretative fallacy on the part of all these scholars..."It would be foolish and craven to minimize Nazi interest in what American law represented." "It is essential to reject once and for all the proposition that American law could not have been of interest to the Nazis." "It is simply nonsense to claim..." "Once we dispose of that dubious claim..." "There can be no justification for ignoring the evidence..." "Only a naive and pedestrian understanding of law - only a dogged refusal to face facts..." An editor should have deleted these kinds of phrases and just let the content - the documenting of Nazi interest in America law - speak for itself.
With all this rhetorical padding, the book is overpriced. Nevertheless it has value as a kind of annotated bibliography.

Thoughtful, well researched, not a "fun" read
Format: Hardcover
This was a very thoughtful look at a topic I didn't know much about. It talks about prewar anti race mixing laws and immigration laws in the USA and other laws used to strip rights from nonwhites in the USA and how those laws were studied by Nazis who wrote laws for the third reich and what they thought of each other. The author obviously put a lot of research and thought into this work but is careful not to jump to any conclusions.
This book is very dense and as someone who is not a lawyer or anything, I could follow it but I had to read it more slowly than most other nonfiction books. Still very worth picking up if you are interested in the topic, though!

Format: Kindle
I must say, I am EXTREMELY biased towards Tim Wise. I adore him. He is a well-educated, genuine wordsmith. He shuts down the mess that we hear perpetrated on a daily basis regarding colorblind politics. In this book, he shuts down "colorblindness". I really love the fact that he criticized President Obama for his lack of legislation specifically for African-Americans. That was an issue I had with him and I believe that several African-Americans feel the same way. I understand, like Tim Wise, the position of President Obama and how easy it would have been for him to fall into a stereotype. I also believe that, no matter what he did, he will always be stereotyped, so why not help out the people who got you elected?
Great book by a "Wise" man.
