Philodendron verrucosum ‘Incensi’ is a rare and exquisite tropical climbing species native to the rainforests of Ecuador, prized for its velvety, heart-shaped leaves and dramatic vein contrast. A member of the Araceae family, this exceptional variety is a collector’s dream — embodying everything that makes Philodendron verrucosum so captivating, with an added intensity of colour and texture that makes ‘Incensi’ stand out among its relatives.

The leaves are large, softly velvety, and richly coloured — deep emerald to bronze-green with bright, electric lime or golden veins. The undersides are equally mesmerising, often flushed with red or burgundy tones that contrast beautifully with the dark upper surfaces. The petioles are covered in characteristic fuzzy, bristled hairs (verrucose texture), giving the plant its name and a tactile, jungle-like appeal.

Elegant and dramatic, Philodendron verrucosum ‘Incensi’ thrives in warm, humid environments, rewarding the attentive grower with breathtaking foliage that feels alive with movement and colour.


Philodendron verrucosum ‘Incensi’ – Care Guide

Light

Thrives in bright, indirect light. Filtered or dappled light best replicates its natural rainforest habitat. Too much direct sunlight may scorch the leaves, while too little can dull the vibrancy of its colour and slow growth.

Watering

Keep the soil lightly moist but not waterlogged. Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil feels dry, and ensure excellent drainage. This variety prefers consistency — avoid both overwatering and prolonged dryness. Reduce watering slightly in winter.

Temperature and Humidity

  • Temperature: Prefers warmth, 20–28°C. Avoid cold draughts and temperatures below 16°C.

  • Humidity: Requires high humidity (70–90%) to maintain velvety leaves and prevent crisping. Use a humidifier or keep in a greenhouse cabinet or terrarium for optimal results.

Soil and Potting

Use a loose, chunky, and well-draining aroid mix — peat-free compost combined with orchid bark, perlite, sphagnum moss, and coco coir works well. This mimics the plant’s natural epiphytic environment. Repot every 1–2 years in spring to refresh nutrients and provide space for healthy root growth.

Feeding

Feed every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer with a diluted, balanced liquid fertiliser. Avoid over-fertilising, as it can damage roots and discolour the foliage.

Pruning and Maintenance

Remove any yellow or damaged leaves at the base to maintain a tidy appearance. Wipe the large leaves gently with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and reveal their natural sheen. Provide a moss pole or coir totem to support its climbing growth and encourage larger, more mature leaves.

Growth and Maturity

A moderate to fast-growing climber, reaching 1–2 metres indoors with proper care. As the plant matures, the leaves become larger, more velvety, and deeply veined, developing that signature luxurious rainforest aesthetic.

Common Issues

  • Brown leaf edges: Low humidity or inconsistent watering.

  • Yellow leaves: Overwatering or poor drainage.

  • Dull colouration: Insufficient light or nutrient deficiency.

  • Pests: Occasionally thrips, mealybugs, or spider mites — inspect regularly and maintain humidity to deter infestations.

Background and Benefits

Philodendron verrucosum originates from the cloud forests of Ecuador, where it grows as an epiphyte, climbing trees in humid, shaded environments. The ‘Incensi’ variety is especially prized for its intensified colouration, velvety texture, and red-tinged leaf undersides.

This plant has achieved near-legendary status among collectors due to its dramatic foliage, tactile stems, and exotic beauty. It thrives best in conditions that replicate its native jungle environment — warmth, moisture, and filtered light.

Like all Philodendrons, it’s also known for its air-purifying qualities, helping improve indoor air while transforming living spaces into lush, tropical sanctuaries.

A donkey with wings! Who knew!
Baxter loves it & it's been a new go to from out of the box. Very durable material, crunchy ears & wings (not sure why a donkey has wings, but ok 🤭) Very cute, great colors. The only downside is the squeaker is hidden between the face attached to the front side of donkeys head, so it's the thickest & toughest part of the toy. It 's hard to squeeze to make it squeak or hear the sound. Only larger dogs can open their mouths wide enough to bite down for it to squeak, mine can't. But cute toy & if it's a gift it comes in it's own cardboard boxlike container.

60 seconds the threads unraveled
1 single min it lasted. My Bichon has torn through a stuffed toy ever 8 years running. I’m hoping it was just a Crappy Stitching job. I’ll give them a chance to make it right… We will see idk

Essential for new pups.
Heartbeat toys are the best when welcoming a new pup home. The heartbeat really calms them, and they carry the toys around forever! We have several, and all of the kids love them.

This works better than any other product tried
This is the best. I had tried hemp chews, chamomile and lavender ointment, and thunder vest. And at times all three for my dogs anxiety during storms and any loud noise. Nothing worked. Got this and it calmed him almost immediately and actually calmed him so much he just fell asleep. Glad I ordered two. One for upstairs and down. It’s very cute and soft. Great product with a great price. It’s holding up good so far. Only had for a couple of weeks. Hope it holds up for awhile. As he is not a chewer.
