Xanadu / Philodendron 'Winterbourn'
Botanical Name: Philodendron xanadu
Family: Araceae
Origin: Brazil
Plant Type: Evergreen clumping perennial (shrub-like)
Overview
A lush, shade-loving foliage plant that thrives in Adelaide and South Australian courtyards and under trees. ‘Xanadu’ forms tidy mounds of deeply lobed, glossy leaves that look tropical yet cope well with dry shade once established. Perfect for softening hard edges, filling difficult, low-light spots and bringing year-round green structure with minimal fuss.
Key Features
- Mature Size: 0.8–1.2 m H × 1.0–1.8 m W (clumping, naturally compact)
- Growth Rate: 15-30 cm per year under good conditions
- Foliage: Glossy deep-green, deeply lobed leaves; new growth brighter lime-green; in cool snaps or strong sun can show soft bronze/olive tints
-
Flowers: Rare greenish-white spathe/spadix in warm, humid conditions; not showy, not fragrant
- Seasonal Interest: Evergreen architectural foliage all year; fresh flushes of new leaves spring–autumn keep the clump looking full and polished
- Wildlife Value: Primarily a foliage plant; not significant for pollinators
- Tolerance: Heat-Tolerant (in shade); Wind-Tolerant in sheltered sites; Clay-Tolerant if soil is improved and well-drained. Light frost sensitive (protect on cold Adelaide hills nights). Not salt-spray hardy and not drought-hardy—prefers occasional deep soaks
- Planting Density: Mass plant: 2–3 per m² (40–60 cm apart). Edges/drifts: 1 per 0.6–1.0 m
- Pet Friendly: Toxic if chewed/ingested (calcium oxalate crystals); keep away from pets and children
Where It Works Best
- Sunlight: Bright shade to part shade (morning sun OK; avoid harsh afternoon sun)
- Soil: Rich, well-drained loam or improved clay with organic matter
- Water Needs: Establishment: 2 deep soaks/week for 8–12 weeks. Established: deep soak every 7–10 days in summer (weekly in heatwaves); monthly in winter if dry
- Maintenance: Remove yellow/tatty leaves; mulch in spring; feed with slow-release, foliage fertiliser in early spring and mid-summer
- Lifespan: 10-20+ years
- Climate Zones: Suited to temperate & Mediterranean SA; best in frost-sheltered Adelaide microclimates and coastal courtyards
- Soil pH: Slightly acidic to neutral (tolerates Neutral–mildly Alkaline if well-drained)
Landscape & Design Ideas
- Shade solution under eaves or open trees—pair with lomandra, aspidistra and clivia
- Tropical-look mass planting along paths and courtyards in Adelaide for year-round texture
- Large feature pots in bright shade to green up patios and entries
Why You Will Love It
‘Xanadu’ gives you instant, tropical foliage with almost no maintenance, exactly what many South Australian gardens need in shaded, dry spots. It stays compact, looks lush all year and elevates paths, patios and under-storey plantings with sculptural leaves that always read “designed.”

The "Lazy Professional" Look: Is Hands-Free Luxury Actually Real?
Size: 9.5, Color: Black Napa Leather
Living down here in Florida, my footwear needs are pretty specific. It’s hot, it’s humid, and I spent half my life rushing from the car into work or a meeting. I’ve reached that age where I value efficiency just as much as style—maybe more. I’ve been eyeing the Marc Joseph New York Hands-Free Slip-on Penny Loafers for a while, and after putting them through the wringer, here is the honest truth from someone who just wants to look sharp without the hassle.
The "Just Step-In" Reality
Look, the big selling point here is the "Hands-Free" tech. We’ve all seen the commercials for those athletic slip-ins, but finding that in a legitimate leather penny loafer is a different game. Does it work? Yes, surprisingly well. The heel counter is firm enough that it doesn’t collapse when you slide your foot in, but it doesn’t feel like a piece of plastic digging into your Achilles once you’re in. For those of us who are tired of bending over or hunting for a shoehorn every morning, this is a genuine quality-of-life upgrade.
The Florida Factor: Comfort and Style
The leather is actual calfskin (on most models), which is a must for the Florida heat. Synthetic shoes turn into a sauna within ten minutes, but these breathe reasonably well. The aesthetic is classic—it’s a "professor" shoe through and through. You can wear them with chinos and a blazer for work or throw them on with some nice jeans for a weekend lunch.
Inside, they’ve got a gel heel insert and a padded footbed. It’s not quite "walking on a cloud"—let’s not over-hype it—but it’s a massive step up from the hard, flat soles of traditional dress loafers. I’ve spent four hours on my feet lecturing, and my arches didn’t hate me by the end of the day.
The Sizing Gamble
Here’s where you need to be careful. The consensus from other guys (and my own experience) is that the sizing is a bit of a coin toss. They tend to run a little large and sometimes wide. If you have narrow feet, you might find the sides "gaping" or flaring out when you walk, which kills the sleek look. I’d recommend ordering a half-size down if you’re usually between sizes.
The Breakdown
The Pros:
True Hands-Free: You can actually put these on while holding a coffee and a briefcase. No hands needed.
Legit Materials: The calf leather feels premium and smells like the real deal.
Versatility: Perfectly bridges the gap between a "car shoe" and a formal loafer.
Comfort: The gel insert makes a noticeable difference for long-duration wear.
The Cons:
Sizing Inconsistency: They can run wide, leading to some "heel slip" if you don't get the perfect fit.
Break-in Period: The heel is stiff by design (to allow for the slip-on feature), so expect a day or two of minor stiffness.
Price Point: They aren't cheap, though often on sale.
Value for Money
Are they worth it? If you’re comparing them to high-end Italian brands that cost $500, these are an absolute steal. They look 90% as good for a fraction of the price. However, if you're used to $60 mall shoes, the jump to $150+ might feel steep until you realize you’re paying for the convenience of never having to touch your shoes to put them on. For a daily driver in a professional setting, the value is definitely there.

Step In Look Good
Size: 11.5, Color: Cognac Napa Leather
I am wearing these shoes as I write this review, and they look and feel great. I have a bit of a disability with drop foot on the right leg and bilateral neuropathy and have been wearing step in shoes for about 10 years. But the first company that introduced leather dress and casual shoes stopped making them and now only makes sport and casual shoes. So I have been searching for some that meet my need for shoes like this and this company has given me three pairs, so far. Easy to get into, comfortable to wear, and good looking. And they take polish very well, too. (Remember how to do that?). We may buy another pair or two in different styles as well.

Runs tight. Skinny and smaller than other brands.

Comfy and lots of support. Cushiony. Beware: the brown I ordered runs small. Tighter than other brands.
