A medium-size specimen of one of the most spectacular velvet Philodendrons, displaying the species' signature elongated, deeply corrugated leaves with a rich, dark-green velvety surface and prominent pale venation. At this size it already shows the dramatic leaf form that makes it one of the most sought-after aroids in cultivation.

• Light: Bright indirect light; avoid direct sun, which bleaches and damages the textured surface.
• Temperature: 62–82°F (17–28°C). Warm grower; protect from temperatures below 55°F (13°C).
• Humidity: 70–90%; very high humidity is essential for optimal leaf development. A humidifier or enclosed growing space is strongly recommended.
• Watering: Keep the mix evenly moist but never waterlogged; use a chunky, well-aerated aroid mix. Never allow roots to dry out completely.
