Philodendron 'Splendid' (verrucosum x melanochrysum)

Philodendron 'Splendid' is a velvet-leaf climbing hybrid made by Keith Henderson in Australia, generally dated to the 1980s, using Philodendron verrucosum as the seed parent and Philodendron melanochrysum as the pollen parent. The name is often credited to Neil Crafter. The hybrid combines heart-shaped velvet leaves, strong veining and a climbing stem.

The plant grows from nodes with aerial roots that attach more readily to a textured pole or board. Under steady warm conditions, its leaves can become larger, darker and more defined as the stem climbs.

Velvet leaves from two climbing parents

  • Leaf surface: Leaves are velvety, dark green and strongly veined, with a soft sheen under angled light.
  • Growth habit: A climbing Philodendron with nodes and aerial roots that attach more readily to a textured support.
  • Parentage: Philodendron verrucosum is the seed parent and Philodendron melanochrysum is the pollen parent.
  • Leaf development: Mature growth can show larger blades, stronger veining and a darker velvet surface.

What verrucosum and melanochrysum contribute

Philodendron verrucosum contributes the heart-shaped leaf outline, strong venation and velvet surface associated with the species. Philodendron melanochrysum contributes elongated dark velvet foliage, a strong climbing response and warm-toned venation. The result is a dark velvet hybrid with a broad leaf base, visible veins and a clear climbing habit.

New leaves mark easily while they are still expanding, so stable humidity, even root moisture and gentle handling matter during each leaf flush. Aerial roots respond best when they meet a lightly moist, textured surface and the potting mix remains open around the main roots.

Care for a velvet climbing Philodendron

  • Light: Give bright indirect light. Velvet leaves can scorch in direct midday sun, while low light leads to longer internodes and smaller leaves.
  • Watering: Water when the top 3–5 cm of substrate has dried. Keep moisture even, but never leave the root ball saturated for long periods.
  • Substrate: Use an airy aroid mix with bark, coco chips, perlite or pumice, and a moisture-holding organic component. Fine, compact soil increases root-rot risk.
  • Humidity: Aim for moderate to high humidity, especially while new leaves expand. A humidifier, grouped plants or a vitrine can help prevent stuck or torn growth.
  • Temperature: Keep warm, ideally 20–27 °C. This hybrid grows poorly when roots are cold and wet.
  • Support: Provide a moss pole, coco pole or textured board early. Tie the stem loosely so nodes and aerial roots can make contact.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth. Velvet climbers respond better to steady nutrition than to strong fertiliser spikes.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots fill the pot or the substrate breaks down. Keep the root ball supported during repotting to avoid snapping the climbing stem.

Signals from leaves, roots and support

  • Small leaves on long internodes: Check light and support. A climbing stem without enough light or contact often produces stretched growth.
  • Stuck new leaves: Check humidity, watering consistency and airflow. New velvet leaves are vulnerable while still rolled.
  • Brown edges: Look for dry root stress, fertiliser build-up or air that is too dry around expanding leaves.
  • Yellow leaves and soft roots: Check for dense substrate or watering before the mix has aired out. Refresh the mix if it has collapsed.
  • Pest scarring: Inspect the newest leaves and undersides for thrips or spider mites. Velvet texture can hide early damage until the leaf expands.

Pet safety for Philodendron 'Splendid'

Philodendron 'Splendid' should be kept away from pets and small children. Like other Philodendron, it can contain insoluble calcium oxalate crystals that irritate the mouth and digestive tract if ingested. Wash hands after pruning, and keep cuttings out of reach.

Parent names and botanical meaning

Philodendron belongs to the Araceae family, and the genus name comes from Greek roots meaning “love” and “tree”, a reference to the tree-associated growth of many species. Philodendron verrucosum was first published by L. Mathieu ex Schott, and the epithet verrucosum means warty, matching the textured petiole character associated with the species. Philodendron melanochrysum was published by Linden and André; its epithet combines Greek roots for black and gold, matching the dark velvet leaf surface and warm vein colour that made the species known in cultivation.

Philodendron 'Splendid' develops dark velvet leaves, pronounced veining and a true climbing habit from two classic velvet Philodendron parents.

Clears breakout without playing around
Size: 5.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This face wash means business. It lathers up nicely and you can actually feel it working on your skin. After a few uses, my breakouts looked calmer and less angry, and my skin felt way cleaner overall. It can be a little drying if you overdo it, so moisturizer is a must, but if you’re dealing with stubborn acne, this one gets straight to the point. No fluff, just results.

Gave me hope again for my back acne
Size: 5.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I’ve been struggling with acne on my back since I was a teen and I’m now in my 30s and still struggling. I had taken accutane (several times) and it was the only thing that has cleared me but it always came back. I decided that I’m not gonna risk potentially hurting myself over that medication again and consistently (no matter if I didn’t feel like it!) started washing my back with this every night (even if I didn’t wash my hair). I would leave it on for at least 5 minutes and then rinse it off, then moisturize. After a month this has been the CLOSEST to clear my skin has ever gotten besides accutane. I’ve tried virtually everything. I was honestly surprised, and although it’s not perfectly clear, it’s made a significantttttt difference. It’s worth a try if you plan to be serious about it. I wish I would have taken a before picture, I just didn’t have high expectations at first!!

Can do wonders but also can completely strip your healthy skin barrier
Size: 5.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Awesome product ONLY IF YOU HAVE SEVERE BREAKOUTS AND OILY SKIN. STAY AWAY IF YOU HAVE SLIGHTLY DRY SKIN AND/OR MINOR BREAKOUTS- not worth the risk. I used it for back acne and it really helped. DO NOT MIX WITH OTHER ACNE PRODUCTS. But HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE WARNING!!!!!—— This is NOT a great play for your face or truly anyone who doesn’t have severe acne and oily skin. Yes, it eliminates acne. If your face is extremely oil and acne prone, every few days would be fine. I, myself, always thought my face was a mix of oily and dry- but I had a lot of hormonal acne from birth control. At first, I would use this every few days (every other, every 3, depending), and I noticed it improving my facial acne as well. I used it for 3+ months. THEN *TRIGGER WARNING* I suddenly one day broke out in HIVES. It completely STRIPS YOUR SKIN BARRIER IF YOU OVERUSE IT OR IF YOUR SKIN IS NOT SEVERELY BROKEN OUT. Red, swollen, bumps, all over my face for a week straight. My face burned so bad I couldn’t even cry it hurt. I couldn’t sleep good. Couldn’t touch my face. Couldn’t even put on moisturizer. Not even an ice pack helped. I had to stop hot showers and every single facial product/makeup for multiple weeks to heal my face. I noticed after I stopped using it, it almost made my acne better on my face- like it truly did strip my skin barrier. I will no longer be putting this on my face UNLESS I have severe acne breakouts, and if that is the case it would be a ONE TIME use. I also DO NOT use it everyday on my back or chest, it’s more of an every other- every few days type of deal. BE ADVISED- does the job, but can also make things worse.

This is a great product!
Size: 5.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Edit: bleached a bunch of our towels so just be aware of that. I never understood that bc he obviously rinses it all off. But it’s definitely 100% what caused the bleaching. It’s still a good product. You just have to delegate certain towels for the person using it. My husband uses this in addition to Bubbles anti breakout facial cleanser. They have different types of ingredients (bubbles has salicylic acid) and work well together. This combo is working well for him. He has very oily skin on his face and head. He’s also been occasionally using a facial wipe during the day (when he thinks of it) for an extra quick cleaning. We tried several different types of cleansers and he does also sometimes use a jojoba oil cleanser before the panoxyl and bubbles. (Oil breaks down oil. Despite it sounding like it would add greasiness, it does not. Jojoba oil balances all skin types and is noncomedogenic) This product may be enough for most of you (it’s really good!) but just wanted to mention this for anyone else who struggles with really oily skin. Of note, he doesn’t ever get acne all over his face but gets an occasional medium to large oily pimple. I also have him exfoliating once a week with Glycolic acid) and using Tretinoin a couple of times a week. He’s supposed to be working up to 3-4 times a week but forgets. I’m a nurse who is wound care certified so know a lot about skin and really look at ingredients and research them. I’ve also worked for a dermatologist. However, please don’t take this as advice but a suggestion to bring up to your own dermatologist or doctor. :) I suspect when he gets up to using Tretinoin more regularly he won’t even need anything else and it will keep him from breaking out altogether. Good luck! Don’t forget sunscreen! :)

HOLY GRAIL PRODUCT!!!!!
Size: 5.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Don’t let the “unaesthetic” brand & packaging fool you— there is nothing better for acne than this face wash. I have been repurchased this face wash for almost 10 years now. I use it morning & night for acne & use it daily on my armpits for a detox. I have combination skin, so this knocks out my greasy areas & acne, & then I just go in with a heavy duty moisturizer, barrier serum & milky toner after for my dry areas. (Side note: I used Accutane as a 16 year old for cystic back acne & a face full of tiny white zits, & this has allowed me to maintain acne free skin almost 10 years later without getting a prescription ointment.) As for consistency & smell: It’s a white cream that doesn’t foam, & a little goes a long way. One bottle last a RIDICULOUSLY long time, unlike most “viral” face washes that last a month. It doesn’t have any added fragrance, but still smells very clean (almost like a light chlorine, which I personally love). As for cost: It’s also priced at an EXTREMELY low cost, with Walmarts great value version only being $0.50 less expensive for a more grainy & chemically smelling wash. !!!!!!!ADDED WARNING!!!!!: this is a 10% benzoyl peroxide cream, which is REALLY strong. You absolutely need to ease your way into using it so you don’t give yourself a chemical burn, every other day to start AT LEAST, & beware of how long you leave it on your skin. I know people with severe cystic acne that will leave it on for minutes before washing it off, but I leave it on for 15 seconds MAX or else my face gets irritated. Beware of sun exposure, & be sure to research if it interacts with other skincare products you’re currently using!
