Philodendron 'Black Cardinal' is a striking tropical plant valued for its deep burgundy to nearly black foliage and compact growth habit. It’s an excellent choice for indoor gardening, as it thrives in low-light environments and is relatively easy to care for. This self-heading philodendron doesn’t climb like many other varieties, making it ideal for pots and indoor settings.

 Plant Description:

- Foliage: The leaves are large, glossy, and oval-shaped. When new leaves emerge, they have a bright burgundy or reddish color and gradually darken to deep green or almost black as they mature. The contrast between the new and old leaves adds dynamic color to the plant.

- Growth Habit: Philodendron 'Black Cardinal' is a self-heading variety, meaning it grows in a rosette-like form rather than trailing or climbing. The plant has a compact, bushy habit, typically growing upright.

- Stems: The stems are thick and sturdy, supporting the large leaves.

 Growing Conditions:

- Hardiness Zones: USDA zones 10-12 for outdoor growth. It’s primarily grown as an indoor plant in most regions but can be grown outdoors in tropical climates.

- Height: 24 to 36 Inches (60 to 90 cm) when grown indoors, although it can grow taller in ideal outdoor conditions.

- Width: 24 to 36 Inches (60 to 90 cm).

- Sun Exposure: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the dark leaves. In low light, the plant’s growth may slow, but it will still maintain its attractive appearance.

- Soil: Use well-draining, rich potting soil. A mix designed for aroids or tropical plants that includes peat, perlite, and orchid bark is ideal. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.

- Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Allow the top Inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so ensure the pot has drainage holes.

- Humidity: Thrives in high humidity, though it can adapt to average indoor humidity levels. Misting the plant or using a humidifier can help in drier environments.

- Temperature: Prefers temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Avoid cold drafts or temperatures below 55°F (13°C).

 Planting and Care Tips:

- Planting Time: As an indoor plant, it can be planted at any time. If growing outdoors, plant in spring or summer in warm climates.

- Repotting: Repot the plant every 2-3 years or when it becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is 1-2 Inches larger in diameter than the current one, and refresh the soil with each repotting.

- Fertilization: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer during the growing season (spring and summer) every 4-6 weeks. Reduce fertilization in fall and winter when the plant’s growth slows.

- Pruning: Prune dead or damaged leaves as needed to keep the plant looking tidy. If the plant grows too large, it can be pruned to control its Size, but typically 'Black Cardinal' maintains a manageable growth rate.

  • Pests: Philodendrons are generally resistant to pests, but occasional infestations of spider mites, mealybugs, or aphids can occur. Wipe down leaves with a damp cloth or use insecticidal soap if needed.   
  • Indoor Plant: 'Black Cardinal' is a popular houseplant due to its dramatic foliage and tolerance of low light. It’s perfect for offices, living rooms, or any indoor space where a bold, low-maintenance plant is desired.

- Tropical Gardens: In tropical climates, it can be used as a focal point in garden beds or containers. Its deep color provides contrast to brighter tropical plants.

- Container Gardening: Its compact Size and slow growth make it ideal for pots, adding a modern touch to indoor or outdoor spaces.

- Air Purification: Like other philodendrons, 'Black Cardinal' helps purify indoor air by removing toxins such as formaldehyde and benzene.

 Native Range:

Philodendrons are native to the tropical rainforests of Central and South America. They grow in the understory of forests, where they receive filtered light and high humidity. While 'Black Cardinal' is a hybrid and not found in the wild, its parent species originate from these tropical regions.

Absolute game changer for chronically dry feet/cracked heels
Size: S (up to size 7)-Beige
I had recently bought a pair of silicone heel/ankle wraps to fill out my boot a little since I noticed my heels were lifting when I was skating. I tested them out around the house and noticed they left my heels softer while the rest of my sockless feet got quite dry. So I got these full foot silicone socks to see the effect of having my whole foot covered. I slather the entirety of my feet with Dr. Scholl's Severe Cracked Heel Restoring Balm (love how convenient it is to apply it to my feet with the solid stick form) and then slip them into these silicone socks. After just a couple hours, when I pull out my feet they're (a teeny bit sweaty at first), but then overall soft and smooth and have absorbed the balm fully leaving barely any residue in the silicone sock. I find these silicone socks generally comfortable; I wear them in the evenings while relaxing on the couch, take them off after a couple hours and let my feet breathe a bit, and then reapply my balm and socks and wear them to bed. If I wake up in the middle of the night, which I almost always do (not because of the socks), I'll take the socks off and allow my feet to breathe again. I wear a woman's size 6 shoe and the small size is pretty comfortable. However, I made the mistake of wearing them while being on my feet for a couple hours straight during household chores -- they must've somehow cut off my circulation a bit with the standing, so I wouldn't recommend wearing these silicone socks while being active. And since they're not exactly my foot size, they slide around sometimes and will start to feel tight at my big toe. But if that happens, I just tug on the toe area of the sock to give my big toe more wiggle room and problem solved. Prior to wearing these socks, I was soaking and doing heavy duty exfoliation of my feet every week. These socks seem like they'll work to help me extend the time between soakings and exfoliations. The 5 pack is a great value. So far none have torn, so they seem rather durable. Not sure what I could even do to tear a hole in these.

EXCELLENT FEET MOISTURE PROTECTION
Size: S (up to size 7)-Beige, Size: S (up to size 7)-Beige
Why did you pick this product vs others?: I have burns on my feet and needed something that I could put burn creme on and still walk around in with. I tried other silicone footsie but they would teae really easily. So far these are doing really well for this purpose. They are holding their shape too. The only caution I have is the same with all silicone footsies: They can be slippery on wet floors, so also wear with socks over them. The biggest issues is when they say a size they mean it. The silicone used in these have little give in them, so they won't stretch out and loose their shape. That can be a good thing, or not so good, depending on how well they fit your feet and what your intent is with wearing these. The other issue is if they fit snug around those toes, that tends to be where the first tear in the material will happen. Because of how these are made, the tear is actually more like cracking in the material and once it occurs you won't be able to get much use out of the sock after that. If you are planning to wear them around the house or for long term use, I suggest going up a size or look for the toeless options.

Silicone socks
Size: M (up to size 9)-Beige
The socks are sized large. The quality of the silicone is good. But they slide around on your feet if you try to walk, making them difficult to use and a bit uncomfortable. Unless you are able to sit for long periods of time the likely will not work well. Recommend looking for a better value.
