Native to the cloud forests of Ecuador, Colombia, Panama, Costa Rica, and neighboring regions of northwestern South America and southern Central America, Philodendron verrucosum is one of the most iconic climbing aroids in cultivation. A member of the Araceae family, this species has earned legendary status among plant collectors due to its velvety foliage, brilliantly contrasting venation, colorful petioles, and exceptional adaptability to high-humidity tropical environments.

In nature, Philodendron verrucosum grows as a hemiepiphytic climber within montane and premontane rainforests, often ascending moss-covered tree trunks beneath dense forest canopies. These habitats are characterized by cool temperatures, persistent humidity, frequent cloud cover, and excellent air movement. As a result, the species has evolved to thrive under conditions remarkably similar to those found in well-established vivariums, greenhouse cabinets, and tropical plant rooms.

The foliage is among the most distinctive in the aroid world. Mature leaves are velvety and richly colored, often displaying deep emerald, olive, or dark green tones highlighted by bright lime-green to yellow venation. Under ideal conditions, the leaf surface develops an almost iridescent quality, giving the plant a depth and richness that photographs rarely capture. The undersides frequently exhibit reddish or bronze pigmentation, adding another layer of visual interest.

The species is equally famous for its petioles, which are densely covered in fine bristly hairs. This feature gives rise to the name verrucosum, meaning "warty" or "roughened." Combined with the velvet foliage, these textured petioles create a plant that appears almost prehistoric in character.

One of the most fascinating aspects of Philodendron verrucosum is how dramatically it changes when allowed to climb. Juvenile plants often produce relatively modest leaves, but once aerial roots establish onto cork bark, tree fern fiber, driftwood, or moss-covered surfaces, foliage size and complexity can increase substantially. In mature specimens, leaves may become several times larger than their juvenile counterparts, developing increasingly dramatic coloration and venation.

Humidity plays a major role in successful cultivation. Levels between 70–100% generally produce the healthiest growth, cleanest leaf emergence, and most vibrant foliage. While acclimated specimens can tolerate somewhat lower humidity, the species truly excels when atmospheric moisture remains consistently elevated.

Bright filtered light is ideal. In habitat, direct sunlight is largely blocked by rainforest canopy cover, and similar conditions typically produce the most attractive plants in cultivation. Too little light may reduce coloration and slow growth, while harsh direct exposure can damage the delicate velvet foliage.

The root system benefits from highly aerated growing media. Mixes containing orchid bark, tree fern fiber, coarse perlite, pumice, sphagnum moss, charcoal, and other chunky components allow roots to remain moist while receiving abundant oxygen. Dense, compacted substrates are generally poorly tolerated over the long term.

For vivarium keepers, Philodendron verrucosum is often used as a climbing focal specimen in larger tropical enclosures. It pairs exceptionally well with Marcgravia, mosses, miniature orchids, Peperomia, Begonias, and other cloud forest plants. The bold foliage provides a striking contrast to finer textures and contributes significantly to the layered rainforest aesthetic that many naturalistic enclosures aim to achieve.

Among velvet-leaf aroids, few species combine beauty, personality, and ecological authenticity as successfully as Philodendron verrucosum. Its spectacular foliage, cloud forest origins, and strong climbing behavior have made it one of the defining plants of modern tropical plant collecting and vivarium culture.

The 1st one is better than this one but I still love it
Format: Kindle
The Mistake is the second book in Elle Kennedy’s Off-Campus series, following a new couple while maintaining the humor, steamy romance, and emotional depth that made The Deal so popular. This installment focuses on Logan, Garrett’s best friend and fellow hockey player, and Grace, a quiet but strong-willed freshman, as they navigate second chances and personal growth. John Logan – Logan is charming, funny, and a ladies' man, but beneath his confident exterior, he struggles with deep-seated family issues and a sense of being trapped by his circumstances. His development throughout the book makes him more than just the stereotypical player. Grace Ivers – A freshman who starts off shy but proves to be independent and assertive. She isn’t easily won over, and her ability to stand her ground makes her a refreshing and likable heroine. Familiar faces from The Deal, including Garrett and Hannah, return, while new side characters add to the college setting’s energy and humor. Kennedy’s writing is engaging, with a mix of humor, emotional moments, and steamy romance. The alternating perspectives between Logan and Grace allow for a well-rounded view of their relationship and personal struggles. The book delivers plenty of humor and flirty banter while also tackling deeper themes of family responsibility, self-worth, and making tough life choices. The chemistry between Logan and Grace is strong, and their romance is a blend of fun, tension, and genuine emotional connection. Strengths ✔ Strong Character Growth – Both Logan and Grace undergo realistic, satisfying development. ✔ Second-Chance Romance Done Right – Logan’s journey to making up for his mistake feels earned, and Grace doesn’t immediately forgive him, which adds authenticity. ✔ Engaging Writing & Humor – The witty dialogue and college setting keep the story entertaining. ✔ Balanced Romance & Personal Struggles – The love story is front and center, but each character also has their own challenges to overcome. The Mistake is a fun, emotional, and steamy addition to the Off-Campus series. While it follows a familiar formula, the engaging characters and well-paced romance make it a standout. Fans of The Deal and other college sports romances like The Chase by Elle Kennedy or The Score (book 3 in the series) will love this one.

Not forced or rushed
Format: Hardcover
I really liked this book. Hannah & Garrett’s story starts off like a typical smart girl tutors the jock to help him get though a class in college. But their stories are traumatic and the things that they have both had to overcome make this book so much more than your typical tutor/jock story. Garrett is sweet, cocky, funny and helps bring Hannah out of her shell in a refreshing way. Hannah is not meek or mild or quiet, she is strong because of her past but still a little unsure. Together their chemistry is hot and their relationship just sort of naturally unfolds. I really loved that it didn’t seem forced or rushed, it just happened as it should. Garrett’s story in particular hit very close for me so maybe that is why I felt connected to these characters so much. I am really looking forward to reading the rest of the series.

Hot, Sweet, and Real
Format: Kindle
First I love a hockey romance! Add in fake dating, he falls first, and shared trauma and you have me hooked! This has been on my TBR longer than I want to admit! With the show that came out I wanted to read this first and it did not disappoint! I loved it! Garret and Hannah together crack me up and are so cute! This book had sad, funny, serious, and spicy moments! Highly recommend! The audiobook voice actors did a good job! I would recommend reading the trigger warning page this book does talk about some issues/trama that can be triggering.

Making my love for hockey (and the players) stronger
Format: Kindle
She manages to create such realistic characters that readers can’t help fall in love with. The Deal is no. exception to that. This book is actually our first introduction to her amazing world of obscenely attractive and crazy talented hockey players at Briar University. Wasting no time, we get straight to the wonderful and hot captain, Garrett Graham. Garrett is a history major in his third year at Briar. Here is where Ms. Kennedy does something different, in shows, movies, and books we often see teachers and professors cutting slack for athletes especially ones that are currently in season. Yeah no, that’s not the case at Briar. Enter: Hannah Wells. If I am being technical, we start of in her perspective however I’m in love with Garrett, so we ignore that. The two of them are taking some sort of philosophical ethics course and when the story kicks off, they are getting their midterms back. You ever have that teacher that literally has either way two high of standards, can’t teach or both? I don’t know what the case is in this situation, but the majority of the class bombs that midterm, except for Hannah (and a few other students). Garrett is among those who failed however he is majorly screwed because if he doesn’t ace this makeup, he is no longer academically eligible for sports. After literally bumping into Hannah on his way out of the lecture hall, he sees her grade and decides that this girl will be his tutor and he won’t take no for an answer. He is relentless in his pursuit of her tutoring him that he goes so far as showing up at her work to beg. Finally, he finds the one thing he can offer to make her say yes: a fake date to catch another guy’s attention. Yeah, that fun cliché. She agrees to tutor him only through the retake because she is too focused on her winter showcase for the music department to tutor him all semester. Predictably speaking, that whole fake dating thing, yeah that backfires. I wonder sometimes if it ever works in any way other than making one of the two people realize they have feelings for each other. Believe it or not though my favorite part of the book wasn’t the romance aspects of it. Yes, I thoroughly enjoyed that don’t get me wrong. It was the way that Hannah and Garrett actually became friends and spent time together as friends outside of studying and trying to get her crush’s attention. They binged Breaking bad, watched stupid documentaries and she hung out with the rest of the team celebrating one of their birthdays. This is something that in my opinion gets missed a lot in romance is that if two people are friends and fake dating, we want to see them actually being friends and not just a couple. Her characters are also so real. Like yes there’s no way this many perfect men exist for her to write 9 books about the hockey players that come through Briar. But that’s not what I mean, I mean her characters have substance to them, they have this wonderful thing that we all as real people have: past traumas. That being said, if you are a person that gets triggered by characters having been abused or sexually assaulted in the past, please consider this your trigger warning. This did all happen prior to the books first page so what we see is the aftermath of the traumas and not the actual events taking place if that makes any difference. If that is you, I would urge you to reconsider reading the story and the rest of this review because I do intend on discussing a little bit of what happens with those situations and how Garrett and Hannah chose to respond to them. Consider this also your spoiler alert as well. When Hannah was 15, she went to a party with friends. At this party she was drugged and raped. Now, roughly 6 years later, we see how this has affected her. She refuses to drink if she is not alone and has some problems with intimacy. The cool thing though is that she uses her friendship with Garrett to help her slowly work through these problems. Once he relatively knows what her hang ups are Garrett never once pressures her or belittles her for them only helping her to slowly move past them in any way he can even if it means he plays the “bodyguard” for a night out with their friends so she can drink and not feel scared. And of course, because this is a romance novel and those two are clearly meant to be he also helps her work through her problems with sex in such a slow and patient way that, in combination with everything else we’ve seen from him, makes all the sense in the world why he is loved not only by her (though she is too dumb to admit it till later) and by all of us as readers. Garrett’s past is not all sunshine and roses either. Son of a former NHL superstar, he had to watch his mother slowly die of cancer and watch as his father’s anger was directed in the form of physical violence at his mother, and later at him. Garrett was routinely abused by his father for years until he learned to hit back, no one saw any warning signs or stepped in ever. All they saw was a retired famous athlete and his equally athletically gifted son. Hannah is the first person he ever felt comfortable opening up to about this and is there for him as a place of support when he is essentially forced to spend thanksgiving with his father and his new girlfriend. She does whatever she can to support him and to remind him that no matter who your parents are, it doesn’t determine who you will be when you are older. This is such an important message that honestly everyone needs to hear as do many of the other men in this series just for different reasons than Garrett. This book is honestly in my opinion perfect, and I don’t think I’ve stopped recommending it to people since the first time I finished it.
