Key Highlights - Philodendron ‘Green Princess’ 

  1. The Philodendron Green Princess is known for its glossy, deep-green leaves, which add a vibrant and tropical feel to any indoor space. Its compact, bushy growth makes it perfect for desks, shelves, or small corners.
  2. The thick, waxy leaves store moisture, allowing the plant to withstand short periods of drought. This makes it a low-maintenance choice for those who may occasionally forget to water.
  3. It helps to remove toxins such as formaldehyde, thereby improving indoor air quality.
  4. Unlike many philodendrons that trail or climb, ‘Green Princess’ grows in a compact, upright shape, making it ideal for small spaces without the need for support or pruning.

The Philodendron ‘Green Princess’ is a stunning, and beloved evergreen-perennial known for its glossy, deep-green foliage and easy-care nature. This tropical plant is an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced plant enthusiasts due to its adaptability and resilience. Unlike vining philodendrons, ‘Green Princess’ has a more upright, bushy growth habit, making it ideal for indoor spaces where a structured, lush appearance is desired. 

Like most philodendrons, ‘Green Princess’ originates from the tropical rainforests of Central and South America. Due to its popularity as a houseplant, it is now widely cultivated in greenhouses and nurseries worldwide. 

One of the most striking features of the ‘Green Princess’ Philodendron is its lush, deep-green foliage.

The leaves are smooth, slightly elongated, and have a glossy finish, which enhances their vibrant appearance.

Unlike climbing philodendrons, this variety remains compact and bushy, making it perfect for tabletops, shelves, and small indoor spaces.

The plant is also known for being low-maintenance, tolerating lower light conditions, and requiring minimal care compared to other tropical houseplants.

When grown indoors, this ‘Green Princess’ plant typically grows up to 10 inches tall and spreads about 10 inches wide.

Its slow-growing nature makes it easy to manage, and with occasional pruning, it can maintain a tidy, bushy form. While it can grow larger under optimal conditions, it remains significantly smaller than climbing philodendron varieties. 

The flowers of Green Princess Philodendron bloom in spring and summer. The flowers have white petal-like structures called spathes, with a green center (spadix). While this plant is mainly grown for its leaves, these rare flowers can add a nice touch of color to your home. 

The Philodendron Green Princess is a compact and versatile plant, making it perfect for small spaces and a variety of indoor settings. This natural air purifier helps trap dust and improve air quality, while also requiring minimal care, making it ideal for beginners. With its mood-boosting greens, the Philodendron Green Princess adds vitality and a soothing presence to your home, creating a welcoming and refreshing atmosphere.  

When and How to Water Your Philodendron Green Princess 

Philodendron ‘Green Princess’ is a drought-tolerant plant that can withstand periods of dryness, making it an excellent choice for plant owners who may occasionally forget to water. The plant’s thick, glossy leaves help retain moisture, allowing it to survive short dry spells. To ensure proper hydration, always check the soil’s moisture level before watering—water only when the top 1-2 inches of soil feel dry.

In the spring and summer, during the active growing season, the ‘Green Princess’ Philodendron requires more frequent watering to support its lush foliage and steady growth. Typically, watering once every 7 to 10 days is sufficient, but this may vary based on climate and indoor conditions. If grown outdoors, more frequent watering may be necessary during extreme heat. To promote even growth, use lukewarm water and ensure proper drainage. 

In the fall and winter months, the plant enters a semi-dormant stage, requiring significantly less water. Reduce watering frequency to once every 2 to 3 weeks, allowing the soil to dry out more between waterings. Lower temperatures and reduced light exposure slow down growth, minimizing the plant’s water needs. However, ensure the air is not too dry by maintaining adequate humidity. 

Light Requirements – Where to Place Your Green Princess Philodendron 

When growing indoors as a houseplant, this philodendron thrives in bright, indirect light.

Place it near a north or east-facing window where it receives gentle morning sunlight without direct exposure to harsh afternoon rays.

If natural light is insufficient, supplement with a grow light for at least 10-12 hours daily to maintain healthy growth.

Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, as excessive light can scorch the leaves.

For outdoor cultivation, it should be placed in a shaded or partially shaded area, as direct sunlight can cause leaf burns.

Ideally, it should receive 3-5 hours of morning sunlight followed by dappled shade throughout the day. In warm climates, growing it under a tree canopy or a covered patio ensures it receives the right balance of light without stress from intense sun exposure. Whether indoors or outdoors, rotate the plant occasionally to ensure even light distribution and balanced growth. 

Optimal Soil and Fertilizer Needs

Philodendron ‘Green Princess’ thrives in a well-draining, nutrient-rich soil mix. Your soil must have a sandy texture and a low water-holding capacity, just like desert soil.  Soggy wet soil can damage your green princess Philodendron and contribute to bacterial and fungal rot. Ideally, you want to use our specialized potting mix, opens in a new tab that contains 5 natural substrates and organic mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your Philodendron to thrive.   

For best results, fertilize the plant once a year in the spring using a balanced liquid NPK fertilizer with a ratio of 5-10-5. This promotes lush foliage and steady growth. Avoid over-fertilization, as excessive nutrients can lead to salt buildup and damage the roots.  

Hardiness Zones & More 

When growing indoors as a houseplant, Philodendron ‘Green Princess’ thrives in temperatures between 65-80°F with humidity levels above 50%. Keeping it in a humid environment, such as a bathroom or kitchen, is ideal. If the air is too dry, use a humidifier or pebble tray to maintain moisture levels. Additionally, ensure the plant receives adequate indirect light for at least 10-12 hours daily. 

In the United States, this is mostly an indoor plant, but if you live in southern Florida or Hawaii then you can cultivate it outdoors in USDA zones 9-11.

It can tolerate temperatures down to 50°F but should be protected from cold drafts and frost.

If grown in a container, bring it indoors when temperatures drop.

It thrives in moderate to high humidity and should be placed in a shaded area with 3-5 hours of morning sunlight. 

Wildlife - Philodendron Attracts the Following Friendly Pollinators 

Philodendron ‘Green Princess’ produces unique flowers that can attract pollinators such as beetles, flies, and other small insects. Although it is primarily grown for its foliage, its infrequent blooms add an extra dimension to its appeal.

According to the ASPCA, Philodendron ‘Green Princess’ is mildly toxic to humans and pets due to the presence of calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause irritation if ingested in a large amount. However, it is safe to touch and handle, making it a popular choice for indoor houseplants. 

How to Propagate Your Philodendron Green Princess

You can propagate your plant through stem cuttings. Choose a healthy stem with at least two nodes and cut it with sterile pruning shears. Allow the cutting to dry for a few hours before placing it in water or moist soil. If you propagate in water, change the water every 3-5 days to prevent bacterial growth. Roots should develop within 2-4 weeks, after which the cutting can be transferred to soil.

The Bottom Line 

Overall, the Philodendron ‘Green Princess’ is a beautiful, low-maintenance houseplant that brings a touch of tropical elegance to any indoor space. Its lush, glossy foliage, compact growth, and resilience make it a favorite among plant lovers. Whether placed on a shelf, desk, or in a decorative pot, this philodendron adds a refreshing green presence with minimal effort. With the right care—moderate watering, indirect light, and occasional pruning—it will remain a vibrant and attractive feature in any home or office.

Cheap and pretty comfortable, but poor adjustment functions.
Color: Black
Chair is pretty comfortable, wheels are solid and it holds height well. Biggest issue is the lean lock, even when engaged the chair does not hold an upright position, so if you're like me and prefer sitting relatively straight, this chair does not offer much support when doing so. Not bad for the price, but I would generally look elsewhere unless you don't care much for adjustment.

Pretty nice. Good price for a good quality chair.
Color: Black
Nice overall. Decent back support, but not really much going on there. Very sturdy chair and is comfortable. The adjustments are just enough to make it good. I would buy it again. rolls great. Easy to put together. perfect adjustable height. It works for my son who is around 5', my wife who is 5' 3 and also me and I am 5' 10.

Comfortable and good quality
Color: Black
This is a great chair value. It’s easy to assemble, height adjustable, and comfortable to sit on. It has a good seat cushion and firm back support. I really recommend this product. And I just ordered another one for my wife’s sewing table because she tried to steal mine.

Inexpensive and decent, without any negative qualities.
Color: Black
Easy assembly with spare parts and the one important tool: the allen wrench that tightens those bolts. The instructions were clear and the parts well marked in the blister-package that is sturdy enough that cutting through the edges of the clear plastic bubbles to get at the parts with scissors is the best method to avoid having to chase the small parts when they fly out of the ruptured package. This chair uses the "New" kind of roller which is larger than the old ones and I was able to replace the standard tandem wheels with the super-slick roller blade type that are much faster and easier to maneuver. I'm sitting in the chair now as I type and it's very comfortable, even if the back isn't adjustable. The mesh back is much better for the Summer here (where it gets really hot!) and is more flexible than the basic upholstered chair back, so it fits and conforms. The one it replaced had been reworked several times and it was still too small with the back not correctly aligned, it had fallen apart anyway and was easier to throw away in small pieces.

Better Than Expected
Color: Black, Color: Black
Initial impressions: The chair is better quality than I expected. The seat material is nice: feels firm but soft; better than those seats with faux leather. So far, it is comfortable even for being over 200 lb and over 6 feet tall. Many parts are sturdy metal, which is much better than plastic. The base that holds the wheels may be a form of plastic, but it is dense and feels strong; almost like metal. The chair frame appears to be a firm plastic too, but not thin, so my initial thought is it will last. It has a buffed texture [not shiny or smooth -- which to me is nice, because it makes it look and feel more solid and not cheap. The one weak point in design, in my opinion, is the cover that fits over the raising post: it feels a bit flimsy. Regardless, it probably wouldn't be noticeable to most unless they get down on the floor and squeeze it. Nevertheless, that there is a cover that raises and lowers like a telescope-- to "hide" the post, is a nice added attribute. A customer could leave the that cover off if they prefer, but I like it. I appreciate that the casters stay in place (unlike the other chair I tested: the KK Toner Round Rolling Stool, whose wheels do not stay in place). This makes it possible to lift the chair without fear of dropping casters. The casters are replaceable too, which is good. I was able to use Lifelong brand casters, instead, which are purportedly safe for hardwood and marble floors. The seat is stationary once attached. It is mostly upright [not leaning back]. Even with its mesh backing it is firm. This is not a plush, rocking chair type of product, yet it is comfortable. Instructions: As seems to be the new trend, they were mostly pictures without words. Regardless, putting the chair together was quite easy. Just make sure you doube check the front versus back of the seat -- this is important for setting the metal lift connector in place. And, don't forget to put the holding ring and washer on the screws. They add an extra screw for the connector, and an extra screw, washer, and pressure ring for the back attachment. That was a pleasant surprise; and is appreciated. The raising and lowering mechanism works well. You can sit on the chair while lowering it; it seems best to get off the chair while raiding it. It lowers to where the seat is 28 inches off the floor. It rises to 22.5". The seat is 17.5" wide x 16.25" front to back [the assembled chair is 18.5" front to back]. The back rest top to the floor is 34". The wheel base is about 20" at its widest point, before adding the wheel casters. With their standard wheels the width is about 21" to 21.5". With the Lifelong brand wheels, it will have a width of 21" to 22.5", depending on how the rotating wheel base is turned. All in all, a good experience. As I wrote, these are my initial impressions [I've only had the chair one day]. My intention is to use it daily as a dining chair. I will add to this review as time goes by [e.g., in ~ six months], to indicate how well this product does long-term and with moderately heavy use. I'd appreciate seeing more former reviewers do the same.
