Philodendron Melanochrysum

The Black Gold Philodendron — a name that captures both the deep, near-black coloration of mature leaves and the golden iridescence that shimmers across their surface in good indirect light, and one of the most evocative and accurate plant common names in the collector aroid world. Native to the humid montane forests of Colombia and Ecuador, Philodendron melanochrysum is a hemiepiphytic climber that produces what many collectors consider the single most beautiful mature leaf of any climbing philodendron — large, elongated, deeply velvety, and extraordinarily dark, with a near-black to very deep forest green surface that reveals a subtle golden-green iridescence as the viewing angle changes. The venation is pale to golden-green, running at a pronounced angle from the midrib — more moody and atmospheric than graphic, a quiet counterpoint to the dark surface. New leaves emerge in spectacular saturated orange-bronze to copper coloration before fading through warm tones to the extraordinary dark velvet of maturity. Leaf size increases dramatically with vertical climbing, with well-supported mature specimens producing leaves exceeding 24 inches in length.

  • Light: Bright but soft indirect light — direct sun bleaches the characteristic near-black coloration, while insufficient light reduces the golden iridescence and slows growth significantly.

  • Soil: Very chunky, open aroid mix of orchid bark, perlite, and coco coir; excellent drainage and root aeration are essential.

  • Temperature/Humidity: Warm temperatures between 65-80°F; humidity of 60-70% supports the best velvet texture and cleanest leaf emergence.

  • Watering: Allow the top 1-2" of medium to dry between waterings; water thoroughly and drain completely. Never waterlog.

  • Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4 weeks during active growth; supplement with calcium and magnesium for best leaf quality. Reduce in winter.

Spray Cap doesn’t work
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 15
Very annoyed- first use and the cap is stuck and won’t spray unless you fiddle around with it and twist it back and forth a few times in and out of the locked position and even then you have to mash down on the button SUPER hard for it to spray. Super weird, never had this issue with any spray product before. Very annoying and nearly impossible to spray yourself with all it takes to get it to work!

Bottle opens/sprays fine - READ
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 15
For those of you who said the bottle does not spray-- look closely on the top of the sprayer nozzle THERE IS the word LOCK with an arrow by it. (It needs to be clearer.) IT WORKS if you turn in the direction of the arrow half way around. IT WON'T OPEN UNLESS YOU TURN the top in THE DIRECTION OF THE ARROW so it unlocks. You can lock it again so it won't leak - a nice feature. I love the product and the clean Alba brand. Recommend.

Bad product. Do not buy!
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 15
No matter what I do to unlock the can, it simply will not work. I also bought the 30 SPF pack of two at the same time. They also do not work. Now, I have 3 cans of sunscreen that I cannot use because they will not spray and I can't even return them. Check the return policy and the reviews! I did not and now I'm stuck with expensive trash. This shouldn't be that hard. I've bought other brands that spray just fine. It's a problem specific to alba.

Stopped spraying
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 15
I bought 2 bottles for an upcoming vacation and I’ve used this brand in the past. One of my bottles only sprayed once and then stopped. I had to throw away the entire bottle because I missed the return date.
