Royal Velvet Philodendron (Philodendron melanochrysum)

Get ready to bring into your space one of the most exquisite, aristocratic, and highly coveted treasures among houseplant collectors worldwide – Philodendron 'Melanochrysum'! This breathtaking king of tropical forests hails from the foothills of the Colombian Andes, and its name literally means "black gold" in Greek. It fully lives up to its poetic name – its large, elegant, and distinctly arrow-shaped leaves have a flawlessly soft, royal velvet texture and a rich, almost black-green tone. But the true magic of nature lies in how this plant plays with light: at the right angle, its velvety surface shines with a delicate, natural golden shimmer, highlighted by expressive, light ivory-toned main veins. This is a beautifully mature, distinctly strong and stable 35 cm tall plant in a 12 cm pot. It is an air-purifying and highly architectural climbing plant that will add an elite, modern, and absolutely stunning tropical luxury accent to any interior. It makes a prestigious, unforgettable, and top-quality gift for the most passionate plant lovers and modern design enthusiasts!

CARE INSTRUCTIONS:

  • ☀️ Light: Bright but MUST be diffused light. Here lies the main secret to this plant’s performance: for 'Melanochrysum' to grow increasingly larger leaves and maintain its deep, velvety tone, it requires a lot of light (it will especially enjoy gentle morning or late evening sun rays). However, strictly protect it from direct, scorching midday sun, which will instantly burn its precious, delicate velvet leaves. An east or west-facing windowsill is the perfect choice.

  • 💧 Watering: Moderate and very thoughtful. Philodendrons do not tolerate overly frequent watering or soggy roots. Allow the top layer of soil and the middle layer (at least the first third of the pot) to dry out thoroughly between waterings! The plant absolutely cannot tolerate standing water in the saucer or decorative pot, which will quickly cause sensitive root rot. Reduce watering significantly during the winter months.

  • 🌡️ Temperature/Humidity: A warmth-loving tropical resident (ideally +18°C to +25°C), which will be extremely happy with increased air humidity (above 55-60%). High humidity helps new leaves emerge easily, safely, and crack-free from their protective sheaths and reach their maximum size. It will appreciate a spot near a humidifier or inside a closed plant cabinet. In winter, strictly protect it from cold drafts!

  • 🐾 Pets: Keep away from pets. Like most philodendrons, 'Melanochrysum' contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals, which are toxic to cats and dogs if chewed. Place this precious plant out of their reach.

🏠 BEST LOCATION:

  • Bright and warm rooms, shelves, or spots by a window with morning/evening sun, where this magnificent silhouette and velvety texture can fully stand out.

  • Modern living rooms, home offices, or plant displays, where this plant can be provided with a moss or coconut fiber support to climb and develop its grand potential.

SPECIFICATIONS:

  • Height: 35 cm (beautifully mature, strong plant with a well-developed root system and foliage)

  • Pot diameter: 12 cm

⚠️ Note and reality check: Plants are living organisms, so each specimen and the exact silvery-green veining of its leaves may vary slightly. It’s important to know nature’s secrets: the new leaves of this philodendron initially unfold in a charming warm bronze or pink tone, and only gradually, as the leaf matures, do they acquire their famous deep black-green and velvety appearance. This species is naturally a climber – if you provide it with a stable and moist moss support (moss pole) for its roots to cling to, each new leaf will grow significantly larger, longer, and more impressive. When repotting in the future, ALWAYS use an extremely airy, loose aroid soil mix (generously mixed with perlite, coconut chips, and dry orchid bark) so the roots can breathe freely and water drains instantly through the pot.

Not that great
Huge "The Simpsons" fan. I watched all the episodes and read a lot of the comics and enjoy most. This one however was quite boring. Turns out I'm just not a big fan of Chief Wiggum. I really enjoyed The "Homer" and "Bart" book. But not this one. Maybe if you love Wiggum you'll love it. If you're not too fond of him then I wouldn't buy it.

A fun and entertaining escape room mystery
Format: Hardcover
I had a lot of fun following the team as they get to know each other and solve the complicated mysteries of the escape room. As the story progresses we find out the real reasons why they all wanted to compete on the TV show, and as they get to know each other better they are able to really become a unit in solving not only the escape room, but work together to find out what really happened to Alicia last season. The mystery was good, I definitely didn't figure out what was going to happen or who was ultimately behind everything coming. This is a fun, fast, and very entertaining read. And I think with the escape room aspect it would make a really a great movie or TV show.
