The Philodendron 'Choco Empress' is a popular, highly sought-after cultivar of the Philodendron genus, possibly a variety of Philodendron bipinnatifidum (Tree Philodendron). It is an upright, large-growing houseplant that creates a lush, vase-shaped clump.
The 'Choco Empress' is renowned for its dynamic, color-changing, and highly textured foliage. New leaves emerge in a dramatic bronzy-chocolate or reddish-brown hue and gradually transition to a deep, glossy, dark green as they mature. The leaves are large and broad and often develop deeply lobed or scalloped edges, giving the plant a regal, sculptural, and highly distinctive appearance.
This tropical houseplant has moderate to fast growth under ideal conditions, forming a large, sculptural plant over time. It can reach an indoor height of 4 feet or more with maturity.
-
Prefers bright, indirect light. Ample light is key to maintaining the richness of its foliage color. Can tolerate medium light, but avoid direct, intense sunlight, which will scorch the leaves.
Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil is dry. Keep the soil consistently moist but never soggy to prevent root rot.
Requires a rich, airy, and well-draining aroid mix. The soil should be slightly acidic to neutral.

Necessary, Poignant, Powerful, Beautiful
Format: Hardcover
I bought this book for myself, but would recommend it for anyone 11+. It is a beautiful, hopeful story about a girl growing up between worlds, honoring her heritage and parents' culture while embracing her new community and breaking out into her own wonderful self. It touches on really important themes about conflict, violence, identity, hate crimes, family tensions, growing up, and more, but all with grace, honesty, and tenderness. This would be an amazing conversation starter for teens and preteens.
I am not a refugee, but I grew up crossing cultures, and this story brought me to tears in all the best ways. I cannot recommend it enough!

Highlands and highlights
Format: Kindle
I always enjoy Clare’s books an “Not Part of the Plan” didn’t disappoint. I love that the MC’s were childhood friends that had drifted apart but found their way back to each other.
I could identify with Poppy not wanting to be a part of the family business as I didn’t want to go in to my family business. I moved to the other side of the country and went into another business too.
I loved Poppy and Eliza’s love story. I also loved that Poppy’s mother and grandmother’s spirits were there to help Poppy found her way with her future.
Clare keep writing your great love stories. This story is a read again story as is the London series. Thanks for the great story.

So, OK I love a good drawn out love story and this one is just that!
Format: Kindle
Clare Lyndon has again made me swoon! This delightful trip from London to the Scottish highlands is as wonderful and full of character as I remember from my trip there with my wife years ago. The descriptive presentation is accurate in beauty and the warmth of the people. The characters are dynamic and full of life. Clearly Ms Lyndon has a gift.
