Philodendron 'Congo Green' is a large-leaved tropical plant with a strong, upright growth habit and dense, glossy foliage. Developed as an indoor hybrid, it traces its ancestry to tropical philodendrons native to South America, adapted for growing in warm, humid forest floors. The leaves are broad, smooth, and deep green, growing tightly around thick, self-supporting stems without the need for climbing supports. Indoors, it forms a bushy, architectural shape that gives rooms a bold, structured look.
Each leaf is oval to slightly elongated, with a natural gloss that highlights its deep green color. The leaves can reach 12 inches or longer when mature, creating a full canopy around the base of the plant. Unlike climbing philodendron species, Congo Green stays compact and vertical, with new leaves emerging tightly curled before unfolding into large, sturdy forms. It usually grows to 2 to 4 feet tall and wide indoors, depending on the pot size and growing conditions.
Compared to vining philodendrons like Philodendron hederaceum or larger split-leaf types like Philodendron selloum, Congo Green grows in a more upright, self-contained form. It does not trail or climb, making it suitable for filling vertical spaces without sprawling or requiring support structures. Its steady, upright growth and the heavy weight of the stems give it a solid, grounded appearance.
In addition to its striking foliage, this Philodendron's s foliage helps improve indoor air quality by contributing to natural air exchange processes. It adapts well to indoor life, tolerating varying humidity and lighting conditions once established. Its upright, solid growth habit allows it to fit well into tall, narrow planters, making it an excellent choice as a centerpiece plant or a statement feature in rooms and open spaces.
-
Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its vibrant, lush foliage. It can tolerate lower light but will grow more slowly and may develop smaller leaves.
Allow the top 2 inches of soil to dry out between waterings, watering thoroughly when needed. Consistent overwatering should be avoided to prevent root rot.
Thrives in moderate to high humidity levels, ideally around 50–70%. Occasional misting or a nearby humidifier can help in dry indoor environments.
Grows best at temperatures between 65–85°F. It should be protected from drafts and kept above 60°F to avoid stress.
Use a rich, well-draining potting mix formulated for tropical plants, typically containing peat, perlite, and orchid bark. Proper aeration encourages strong root development.
Feed once a month during the growing season with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer. Pause fertilizing during the cooler months when the plant's growth slows naturally.
Philodendron 'Congo Green' is toxic if ingested by pets and humans. Always place it safely out of reach of children and animals.

Reliable, Long-Lasting Ink for Crisp Prints!
Style: Ink
The Epson 812 XL ink works perfectly with my Epson WF-7840! The colors are vibrant, and the black is deep and sharp. Every print comes out crisp and professional looking. The XL size lasts a long time, which means fewer replacements and better value. Installation was quick and easy, and the printer recognized it immediately with no issues. I’ve been using it for documents, photos, and labels, and it performs consistently every time. A must have for anyone who wants high quality prints without frequent refills!

When a single one cartridge in a set fails :(
Style: Ink, Style: Ink
This for use in my oldish Epson WF-7840 model, which is an ink guzzler; its decent print quality and large paper format notwithstanding. For work projects and good color on laser & gloss papers, this is the only good ink choice on this model. Well, that is, IF you get all ink cartridges in a set working.
Therefore, given its price, it is frustrating that, when a brand new single cartridge (of a set) fails, you can be left with few good choices. Along the years, this has happened to me twice...plus today, just one, of a pricey Epson set, failed. When I've bought from a local store, they have had no problem helping with this issue in the past.. I am sure that Amazon & Epson will make it right also.
YET, I do have to send back the whole set, even for a single cartridge replacement, which they DO HAVE AS A SEPARATE item. It is a bit of a drag because I need the printer working now and this magenta ink cartridge is all I needed to work at this time.
How about dedicating some of Amazon's awesome IT & AI power to distinguish and better respond to this kind of situation? After all, Artificial Intelligence can sort this kind of thing in just a bit or two.
