Philodendron 'Green Princess'

Philodendron 'Green Princess' is a compact green Philodendron with glossy leaves and a naturally tight growth habit. It forms a small, dense outline in the pot, with fresh green leaves held close around a short central stem.

New growth opens bright green, then settles into a deeper glossy tone. Short internodes keep the plant tidy, while active roots allow regular new leaf production.

Compact green traits at a glance

  • Growth habit: Compact self-heading Philodendron with short internodes.
  • Leaf shape: Oval to softly pointed green leaves with a glossy surface.
  • Plant size: Small, tight-growing Philodendron with a contained pot shape.
  • Care needs: Warmth, bright indirect light and careful watering keep the short growth habit neat.
  • Container behaviour: Holds a tidy pot shape with regular rotation and careful watering.

Short internodes and close leaf growth

Philodendron 'Green Princess' develops as a small, leafy cluster. The short stem keeps leaves close together, so the plant can look dense even when young. This tight arrangement also means the base should stay clean and well ventilated. Old leaf sheaths and dead leaf bases can hold moisture, so removing dry material carefully helps protect the central growth.

The leaves are smooth and reflective. They can be wiped with a soft damp cloth when dusty, which is especially helpful on compact plants where leaves overlap. Healthy growth should appear firm, evenly green and well spaced. A plant that starts leaning strongly toward the light is asking for brighter indirect light or more regular rotation.

In indoor containers, Philodendron 'Green Princess' stays at its best when the pot is scaled to the root system. A very large pot can keep the inner mix wet too long, while a tight root ball dries too quickly and slows leaf development. The goal is a breathable mix, steady warmth and enough light to keep the short growth habit neat.

Care for a smaller self-heading Philodendron

  • Light: Bright indirect light keeps the plant compact and helps new leaves size up properly. Avoid harsh direct sun on the glossy leaf surface.
  • Watering: Let the top few centimetres of the mix dry before watering again. Water thoroughly, then allow excess water to drain away.
  • Substrate: Use a loose aroid mix with bark, perlite or pumice. The compact base needs air movement around the roots and lower stem.
  • Humidity: Normal home humidity can be enough, but moderate humidity supports cleaner new growth during active leaf production.
  • Temperature: Keep warm and stable, ideally above 18°C. Avoid cold windowsills combined with wet substrate.
  • Feeding: Use a diluted balanced fertiliser during active growth. Compact plants can show tip burn when overfed.
  • Cleaning: Wipe leaves gently to remove dust and inspect the tight inner growth for pests.
  • Repotting: Repot only when needed. A pot that is too large can keep the root zone wet for too long.

Problems in tight central growth

  • Loose, stretched growth: Usually caused by insufficient light. Move the plant to a brighter indirect position and rotate it regularly.
  • Yellow lower leaves: Check whether the leaf is simply old. Several yellow leaves together suggest excess water, compacted mix or a cold root zone.
  • Brown tips: Often linked to dry spells, fertiliser build-up or inconsistent watering. Check the roots before increasing water frequency.
  • Black marks near the crown: Look for trapped moisture in old leaf sheaths or dense substrate around the stem.
  • Sticky residue or fine webbing: Inspect for scale, spider mites or other pests, especially where leaves overlap.

Philodendron 'Green Princess' grows best with steady, moderate care. Strong fertiliser, oversized pots and constantly wet substrate can damage the compact root zone. Bright filtered light, a breathable mix and careful watering help keep the plant dense and evenly shaped.

Safety for pets and children

Philodendron 'Green Princess' is not pet-safe. Chewed leaves or stems can release insoluble calcium oxalate crystals, causing mouth and throat irritation in pets or people. Keep cuttings and removed leaves away from children and animals, and wash hands after handling sap.

Philodendron name background

Philodendron belongs to Araceae, the arum family. The genus name is built from Greek elements often translated as “loving” and “tree”, reflecting the climbing nature of many wild Philodendron species.

Philodendron 'Green Princess' stays small and glossy, with short internodes and close green leaf growth around the central stem.

About that twist…
Format: Kindle
SPOILER ALERT! The thing about big, improbable twists in stories is that the less time you have to think about them, the better their effect. For fans of the classic TV show The Twilight Zone, it has always been clear that the half-hour shows were far better and far more punchy and memorable than their rather sad hour-long cousins. And a book has far, far more time to contemplate a twist than a TV show. Unfortunately, despite some pointed observations by the author (narcissistic people are pretty much unlikable, cruelty and brutality give power to weak men, abused children very often cling to their abusers), the big, improbable twist in Yesteryear almost completely sinks the story. The twist is the same one that sank M. Night Shyamalan’s 2004 movie The Village, and it fares no better here. Yes, people can and do live off the grid. But avoiding every single sign of civilization for years on end? Even if you’re not in a commercial flight path, there are such things as helicopters and small private planes, especially in remote areas. Perhaps people rarely stray onto private land in the wilderness, but once in a while, stray they do. And when that wilderness home was once widely publicized? Excuse me, but people are going to look for it. This is all not to say that Yesteryear was not entertaining - it was. I read it in one sitting. The characters, as unlikable and unreliable as they are, were well drawn. A couple of the children were also quite believable, but the author’s excuse for the rest of the kids being cyphers was that their mother saw them as cyphers as well. Okay, that’s fair, but knowing them better would have enhanced the story for the reader. This is certainly a promising book. It held my attention and was very well-written. But that twist - well, it sank M. Night Shyamalan, too.

Good read
Format: Hardcover
This book has been getting a lot of hype, and I can understand why. First, it is a very unique storyline. Very different plot. Second, the main character, Natalie, is totally unlikable. In fact, I would honestly say I loathed her. She has no likeable qualities whatsoever. I guess that is what makes you want to keep reading, to find out what happens to this nasty woman. That said, I admit I was confused at the end. I am still not sure what exactly happened to Natalie, how the situation came about, and how 10 years went by when Natalie seemed to only be telling a few months time. Was she delusional? Did she have a mental breakdown? I wish it was more clear as to what exactly happened.

What did i spend so much time reading??
Format: Kindle
Spoilers ahead This book makes me angry. A misogynistic fable that holds women as mothers as inherently either deeply flawed or as if some fairy tale perfect mother exists. I found the early parts of the novel quite funny. Thinking this poor woman why do people expect such crazy standards? Also social media influencers somehow we are to take for reality? It is entertaining and that's why we want to spend our time looking at it. It is a fantasy world. Yet that is somehow turned from something comical and poignant dissolving into madness where there can be a 16 year old that can take away your children for what I'm not sure. Filming them? Having nannies? And then again the next bunch for living off the grid? I get that this isn't going for realism. It ultimately became for me this poorly written satire maybe? Obviously what started as comically intriguing for me descended into one totally crazy crazy turn to the darkest of places. I recognize this was supposed to be some sort of cracked fairytale where nearly everyone is evil and/or mental but 30 years for child abuse? This is like a nightmare not a thriller. The book demonstrates a hatred for mothers. Just awful! It made me crave for a totally unrealistic thriller. I came to be entertained and left pissed off.

Excellent satire of tradition cult
Format: Kindle
I read this book in two days. I was eager to read it once I read the description in a Facebook post. I am a theologically conservative Christian frustrated with the tradition culture that has co-opted the faith. I see this in my social and social media circles quite a bit, and I was intrigued by a novel that took this movement to task. Furthermore, I truly enjoy well done satire and farce. I have had a hard time finding these works written well in the past, so I was bracing myself to be disappointed. I am thankful to say, I wasn’t. I didn’t expect the novel to go the way it did (and no, I won’t post spoilers), but I literally laughed out loud a several points. Let me compliment the author for one particular point: She doesn’t just blast the “tradwife” movement. Plenty of cultural movements and groups of people have their sins exploited. Rather than shooting a 12-gauge at religious conservatives, she takes a Tommy gun and hits a wide range of systems. I do want to warn squeamish readers about another issue: The novel can be quite graphic at times, explicitly detailing the intimacy struggles with the main couple. It borders on the pornographic side, but not for titillation. It’s meant to show the dysfunction in the supposedly happy couple. There were quite a few humorous moments, such as the protagonist enjoying the sounds of the chickens, only to grow wistful about their impending deaths so she can taste chicken broth. Or the protagonist’s evangelical mother reacting to her son-in-law’s purchase of a yoga mat.  I was a little disappointed in the resolution of the central issue, i.e., the time travel. But overall, the novel was an enjoyable read and worth your time.

What did I just read
Format: Kindle
I’m not sure how to articulate my feelings about this book. It took me a bit to get into it, the story was interesting from the beginning but felt very slow paced to me. That changed about half way in. I don’t know what I was expecting, but that was not it! I did end up enjoying this. It was well written, funny, and shocking.
