Philodendron splendid

Velvet Finesse, Hybrid Grace

A hybrid between Philodendron melanochrysum and verrucosum, Philodendron splendid combines the best of both: lush, velvety leaves with bright veining and a strong climbing growth habit.

The leaves emerge reddish-bronze and mature into long, velvety hearts with electric lime veins—a true showstopper. It grows large quickly with the right care.

At Tropical Green Nursery, we provide three months of acclimation to stabilize this striking hybrid before sale.

Care Tips:

• Light: Bright, indirect light enhances contrast and velvet.

• Humidity: 60–80% for larger leaves.

• Water: Keep soil evenly moist. Avoid drying out completely.

• Support: Climbs well with a moss pole.

• Soil: Our Tropical Green Aroid Mix gives the perfect base for velvet hybrids—light, rich, and airy.

Splendid in name and nature, this hybrid is a velvet masterpiece for the discerning collector.
