  • Philodendron gloriosum is a tropical plant known for its large, heart-shaped, velvety green leaves with striking white veins. Native to the rainforests of Colombia, this species grows as a creeping terrestrial plant, spreading horizontally along the soil rather than climbing like many other philodendrons.

    As the plant matures, its leaves increase in size and display stronger contrast between the veins and the leaf surface. New growth often emerges with a rosy tint that gradually fades into deep green as the leaves expand and firm up. The foliage, soft to the touch and boldly veined, has a rich, artistic quality that sets this plant apart and makes it especially prized among rare plant collectors.

    Unlike vining Philodendrons that require support to grow upward, Philodendron gloriosum spreads from a thick, above-ground rhizome that creeps across the surface of the soil. This makes it ideal for shallow, wide containers, allowing room for the rhizome to stretch and new leaves to develop along its path. With proper care, mature leaves can reach 12–18 inches long, becoming dramatic focal points in any indoor space.

    As a member of the Araceae family, this plant is related to other popular philodendrons but distinguished by its crawling habit and matte, velvety texture. It is often compared to species like Philodendron Micans or Melanochrysum, but its low, horizontal growth pattern and thick, textured foliage give it a more sculptural, grounded presence. It’s not a climber but a slow-spreading, leaf-forward specimen that adds elegance and calm structure to any plant collection.
  • Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain healthy growth and strong leaf color. Avoid direct sunlight, which can burn the soft, velvety leaves.

    Water when the top 2–3 inches of soil feel dry. Keep the soil evenly moist but not soggy, as overwatering can lead to root and rhizome rot.

    Thrives in moderate to high humidity, ideally above 50%. If your indoor air is dry, consider a humidifier or placing the plant on a pebble tray.

    Use a well-draining, airy mix, such as a blend of potting soil with orchid bark, peat or coco coir, and perlite. This helps support root health and proper moisture retention. Feed once a month during spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength. Skip feeding during the plant’s slower-growing fall and winter months.

    Grows best in 65–80°F temperatures. Avoid cold drafts and keep it away from areas that drop below 55°F.

    Like many aroids, Philodendron gloriosum is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. Keep out of reach of children and animals.

Best ball for retrieving ever
Size: Medium, Style: Medium (4 Pack)
I have been using a ball launcher to exercise my Border Collie. Up till now I have been using the launcher to throw tennis balls. Even with the launcher I can only throw the balls a couple of hundred feet. These balls go MUCH further. I am using a steep horse pasture to throw the balls and I have to make sure that I don't launch them past the fence at the end of the pasture. I think the thing that makes them go further is their weight combined with a smooth surface. They also have incredible bonce. They hit and just shoot way up into the air. Also, the tennis balls I was using were green. In my horse pasture they were easy for the Collie to miss since they blended right in to the grass. These balls with the orange with blue stripes are far easier for the dog to find. It's really hard to tire out a Border Collie but these balls do the job.

Great fun for retrievers
Size: Medium, Style: Medium (4 Pack)
Great durable balls. Use these with or without the thrower. Lab puppy loves to play fetch and these are easy to spot in the yard. Our neighbor has 2 pit bulls who also plays with them. Will buy them again if need be.

Best toy, the end
Style: Sport, Size: 12in, Style: Sport, Size: 12in
Combined with the Max Glow ball, this is the best dog toy available on modern planet Earth. I have a burly 92lb. pit bull mix with highly developed prey drive, and she will chase the glow ball for hours if I let her. The tiny sport launcher (Sport 12M) is the best, because you can still throw the ball really far, but you can also slam the ball down a few feet away from yourself so it bounces up in the air and your dog has to jump to catch it, or you can throw it up really high so it bounces 15' away or so and your dog can jump to catch it. We sometimes have to play fetch in a pretty small area, so it's nice to have the small launcher for these games. The larger launchers aren't as fun in small areas. You can play the same games but it's trickier to throw the ball correctly. Also, the small launcher is a lot easier to carry. The small launcher fits in my dog-walk-stuff backpack (with the ball in the launcher so I don't have to dig for it later), but the big ones don't easily. The launcher also has a hole in the end so you can hang it from your bag or whatever with a carabiner. The big ones are too long for that in most cases, and swing back and forth. Also-also my dog loves to ask for the launcher, then when I give it to her she plays keep-away and it's adorable. The big launcher I have is harder for her to balance in her mouth, so she just lays down and chews on it until it gets taken away. She's chewed on all of the four Chuck Its we've owned, but she's only broken one (a big one), but that's because she got ahold of it when no one was home. The little one in my bag is totally chewed up but still works great. I think they're sturdier than the big ones. Except for the launcher she chewed into pieces, which was our fault, the only reason we've had to replace anything was because we lost it. Usually we keep the launcher and ball in the backpack so she can't get to them and so they don't get lost, so we rarely have to replace them. There is just not a better value in toys, and the startup price is really low. Once again I really recommend the glow ball! It doesn't get soggy no matter how wet the grass or the dog mouth is. It is fun to chase because it is slippery and it collapses when it's squeezed, so it pops out of the dog's mouth and flies away if they bite it at the wrong angle; it's really bouncy, and stays bouncy because it can't be popped; it whistles so you can usually hear it even if you can't see it; and it really glows enough for nighttime catch, even if you only have your cellphone flashlight to charge it up! UPDATE: I should have said, we have the 12M launcher, which means the handle is 12 inches long and it uses a medium-sized ball. The medium ball is 2.5 inches in diameter, so the launcher will fit regular tennis balls, too! But my dog won't play with regular tennis balls anymore because they aren't anywhere near as fun as the glow balls, and I think she doesn't like having gross sloshy muddy tennis balls in her mouth. I lost my short launcher awhile back and could only get a long one locally to replace it, which reminded me that you have to lean over a lot further to use the short launcher. So if you have trouble leaning over to the point that your hand is a foot above the ground, this may be hard for you to use. I wish Amazon would let us choose colors, because my old one was green, and the big one is orange, both of which are bright enough to see in the grass from far away, even at night. Still, best toy!

Highly recommend.
Style: Sport, Size: 12in
Love this. Dog sitting for a dog that loves to chase balls but my shoulder doesn’t like throwing them. Got this yesterday and it’s perfect. Real arm/shoulder saver. Seems sturdy and I was concerned that a standard tennis ball would not work. We tend to lose balls when walking because this lab insists on carrying the ball in its mouth. They work.
