Philodendron (Pole)

Gorgeous and graceful, the Philodendron Gloriosum is the perfect addition to add some pizazz to your home.
With its velvety green leaves and unique shape, you’ll have a hard time taking your eyes off this beauty!

A stunning variety or Aroid with striking velvety heart-shaped foliage, best known for growing upright, loves to be trained upright on a simple pole or a beautiful moss pole.

Position

This Philodendron likes to be kept in bright and indirect light. Make sure to keep away from direct sun. They can survive lower light conditions but will grow relatively slower.

Care

Fertilise during warmer months, train aerial roots to grab onto a trellis or a moss pole to encourage further growth.

As the plant is on a moss pole it is recommended that the pole is watered only as this is where most roots will grow, watering the potting mix can make the plant to damp as the moss pole will make the potting mix wet.

When the plant is actively growing during the warmer months, it will require a bit more food and water to help support it’s new growth.

Fertiliser (plant food) can be applied as granular slow release pellets or as a liquid.

If out growing the moss pole an extension is possible by adding another to the top section- we can offer assistance with this, or you may think about chopping and propagating.
