I don’t see this one talked about much, but it’s honestly one of my favorites. I actually have three, the largest (in the white pot) was my first one, and it’s the darkest and glossiest of the bunch. It’s also the one I paid the most for ($119) but totally worth it for how rich the foliage looks.
The other two I found on Palmstreet. They seem a bit different… the leaves are lighter and not quite as dramatic yet. I’m not sure if that’s just due to maturity or possibly a different lineage?
Anyone else growing this beautiful and moody Philodendron? I’d love to hear how yours are doing, leaf color, growth rate, and any tips for keeping that deep dark sheen. I also noticed it’s very fast growing plant once it’s happy despite hearing it’s slow.
The largest one took quite a long time to acclimate though but once it did it took off.

On a separate note, your variegated monstera adansonii looks gorgeous!
Do you have two plants growing on the same moss pole?
