Philodendron gloriosum

Philodendron gloriosum is a Colombian crawling Philodendron grown for large heart-shaped leaves with a velvety surface and pale venation. Its surface-running stem moves sideways across the substrate and produces one new leaf at a time from the active growing tip. A wide, shallow pot gives the stem room to advance while the root zone stays airy and evenly drained.

The creeping stem has visible internodes and persistent cataphylls, and it belongs at the substrate surface. Roots grow down into the mix while the active tip continues forward across the pot.

Philodendron gloriosum velvet leaves and crawling growth

  • Leaf shape: Broad, heart-shaped blades become larger as the creeping stem establishes.
  • Texture: The velvety surface gives mature leaves a deep green, matte finish.
  • Venation: Pale veins define the blade shape and become more pronounced as leaves harden.
  • Growth habit: A surface-creeping stem needs horizontal pot space and an airy substrate surface.
  • Family: Araceae.

How Philodendron gloriosum creeps across the pot

Philodendron gloriosum develops one leaf at a time from a crawling stem. The stem should stay visible on top of the substrate, with roots growing down into an airy aroid mix. Deep planting keeps moisture around the stem and increases the risk of rot.

As the stem advances, the plant builds a low, spreading shape with new leaves emerging from the active tip. A pot with open substrate ahead of the growing point supports cleaner growth, especially once the stem begins reaching the pot edge.

Care for Philodendron gloriosum crawling stems

  • Pot shape: Choose a wider pot so the creeping stem has room to move forward.
  • Stem position: Keep the surface-running stem visible and clear of wet, compacted mix.
  • Watering: Water when the upper 25–35% of the pot has dried, then let the surface settle before watering again.
  • Substrate: Use an airy aroid mix that holds light moisture while draining quickly around the roots.
  • Light: Provide bright indirect light to support broad leaves and steady growth.
  • Humidity: Moderate to high humidity helps new leaves open with fewer tears or stuck edges.
  • Temperature: Keep it warm, ideally around 18–27°C, and protect it from cold draughts.
  • Fertilizing: Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced fertiliser diluted below full strength.
  • Repotting: Repot when the growing stem reaches the pot edge or root growth has filled the container.
  • Propagation: Stem sections with at least one node can root in a warm, humid setup.
  • Pruning: Remove damaged leaves at the base of the petiole and keep old, wet cataphyll material from collecting around the stem.
  • Mineral substrates: It can adapt to airy semi-hydro or mineral substrates if the creeping stem stays above the wet zone.

Philodendron gloriosum stem and leaf issues

  • Soft creeping stem: Check planting depth and moisture; the stem should sit on top of the mix.
  • Yellow leaves: Often linked to heavy substrate or overwatering around the roots.
  • Torn new leaves: Improve humidity and keep watering steadier while leaves are expanding.
  • Stalled growth: Check whether the growing tip has run out of horizontal space.
  • Pests: Check the undersides of leaves and the petiole bases for thrips, spider mites and mealybugs.
  • Leaf spotting: Improve airflow around the plant and keep the velvety leaf surface dry after watering.

Pet safety for Philodendron gloriosum

Philodendron gloriosum is toxic if eaten and can irritate the mouth and digestive tract. Place it away from pets and wash your hands after handling cut or damaged tissue.

Philodendron gloriosum published name and etymology

The genus name Philodendron comes from Greek roots meaning tree-loving, a reference to climbing and tree-associated growth in much of the genus. Philodendron gloriosum was described by Édouard André and published in Illustration Horticole in 1876. The species epithet gloriosum means glorious or splendid, matching the broad velvety leaves and pale venation seen on mature plants.

Philodendron gloriosum brings a low, spreading growth habit together with large velvet leaves and bold pale veins.

Great quality pillows. Very difficult wrapping.
Color: White, Size: King (Pack of 2)
The Pillows are the real deal. Very fluffy but with good support. I was surprised by the weight of the box they came in, pretty heavy so you know there’s good quality pillows inside. The one negative is that the pillows are packed in very very tight plastic because they come compressed. But the thing is, it’s really a chore to open them. You have to be careful not to cut through the plastic to the material, but the plastic is put on so incredibly tight that it’s even hard to get your finger underneath. But I found a way to open them. Near the top, insert A very flat metal ruler as far in as you could get it. Then cut through the plastic that’s above the metal ruler. That prevents a sharp tool from damaging the pillows. As you get through the plastic above the ruler, keep pushing the ruler further down into the package. Believe me, this simplifies what could be a very difficult unpacking. I am very surprised that the company that makes them does not insert the type of opener that you find on boxes you receive in the mail or even packages that you get from the grocery store where you just pull a tab and that opens the package. These are really good pillows, but you must be very careful about using a sharp object when opening the box and when trying to cut through the plastic. I am a strong man and have the tools needed, a very flat metal ruler, and a box cutter, knife, or razor. Good luck. !!

Nice protector cover, quiet and comfy - best for THICK mattresses
Color: 3 Navy Blue, Size: Full
I liked this pad immediately as fabric cover has nice quilting (just slightly puffy), and touch feel and feels substantial enough to hold up over time. I’ve ordered a few different brands of these and they were crappy, insubstantial pads I did not think would hold up to more than a couple washings. My biggest complaint and it’s due to my own lack of experience buying these in the new world of skillions of mattress thickness choices is that (A) the side panels / elastic pockets are HUGE and will never be secure on anything thinner than a 12” (or thicker!) mattress; and (B) I thought I was buying an ENCASEMENT cover pad which this is not. I’m blaming that on Amazon because I specifically input “encasement” in the search and their F’ing search algorithm does whatever the heck it wants and if you’re not paying nit-picky attention you get stuff you don’t want. (Or you waste time sorting out the ones you didn’t want to see in the first place!) That said I am seriously considering keeping this (depending on late arrivals of competing covers) as I’m certain this will be comfortable and as quiet as these waterproof covers get. It’s a nice cover. UPDATE: it’s a couple weeks later and I’m reporting I did keep it and am happy to have done so. It installed more securely than anticipated and is as comfortable as I thought it would be. I’ll try and update again when I have time to resize pics and show how much my cat enjoys it too:) UPDATE#2: in review I noticed that the 1* reviews were on about nasty liquids leaking through - I haven’t had any large scale events to gauge but I can see how those reviews could be valid. I should report out of EVERY type of these “nice” noiseless “waterproof” pads I’ve got I think every one of them probably could have the same fault. In other words though I use and really like this cover I also purposely use an encasement style mattress protector (you know the put it in a bag w/zipper kind and a pain in the a** to do so kind) to avoid the complaints in the 1* camp. These mattresses are just too costly and spongelike to NOT protect them completely so I appreciate their frustration that things leaked for them. In my choice to keep this I did so because a) it most probably is pretty waterproof & is definitely quiet & comfy; b) it’s pretty easily washable; and c) because most of the encasement protectors are of more “crinkly” material than this (at least the ones I’ve seen so far - maybe the super expensive ones have figured out how to be perfectly waterproof without crinkle) and by using this nice top protector I put a layer on top of the crinklier encasement and everything just ends up much better with no noticeable crinkle. Figured I say this to help detail 1* vs. 5* because right!? how can one thing be so great and when you turn around then be so terrible… just sayin. (& I did not change my 5* rating😎)
