Philodendron 'Black Cardinal'

Philodendron 'Black Cardinal' is a bold, self-heading hybrid prized for its deep burgundy to near-black foliage and strong, upright growth. New leaves emerge with a coppery-red tone before darkening to rich chocolate-maroon, creating a striking contrast between old and new growth. Its wide, paddle-shaped leaves have a soft satin sheen and grow in a neat, layered rosette that gives the plant a sculptural, architectural presence.

Unlike trailing philodendrons, ‘Black Cardinal’ stays compact and doesn’t climb—making it perfect for desktops, side tables or floor pots in bright indoor spaces. It's low-maintenance, visually dramatic, and ideal for adding dark contrast to lush plant collections.

Toxic if ingested.

Comprehensive Care Instructions for Philodendron 'Black Cardinal'

Lighting Requirements

Indoors: Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its deep colour. Tolerates medium light but may grow slower and produce smaller leaves. Avoid direct sun, which can scorch or fade the foliage.
Outdoors (mild climates): Grow in filtered light or full shade. Protect from strong sun and cold.

Watering Regimen

Active Growth (Spring to Autumn):
Water when the top 2–4cm of soil is dry. Keep soil lightly moist but not soggy. Ensure pot has good drainage.
Cooler Months:
Allow soil to dry a little more between waterings. Reduce frequency to match slower growth.

Temperature & Humidity

Thrives in warm temperatures between 18°C–28°C. Avoid cold drafts or temperatures below 12°C.
Prefers moderate to high humidity but tolerates average indoor conditions well. Mist occasionally in dry spaces.

Fertilizing

Feed every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer with a balanced, diluted liquid fertiliser. Hold off feeding in winter unless under grow lights.

Pruning & Maintenance

Remove old or damaged leaves at the base to keep the plant tidy. Wipe leaves gently to remove dust and enhance their dark sheen.

Repotting

Repot every 1–2 years or when rootbound. Use a chunky, free-draining aroid mix with bark, perlite and compost.

Pests & Troubleshooting

Generally pest-resistant but may attract mealybugs or fungus gnats in very damp conditions.
Pale or faded leaves may indicate too much light. Yellowing may suggest overwatering.

Important Note: Dark, Moody & Low-Fuss

Philodendron 'Black Cardinal' is a standout choice for lovers of dark foliage. Its non-climbing habit and bold, sculptural form make it ideal for modern interiors and statement containers.

The Maui Babe lotion is truly amazing! It smells wonderful and goes on light
Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
First of all, let me start of saying I never write reviews, so I hope that tells you something. I bought this lotion while my husband and I were in Hawai'i on our honeymoon. I have freckles with semi-fair skin, so I tend to burn - then tan. The Maui Babe lotion is truly amazing! It smells wonderful and goes on light. We had a Jeep while visiting Hawai'i for 10 days, so I ended up with a slight case of sun poisoning on my chest. I applied the Maui Babe and Aloe for 2 days, and the sun poisoning was gone. I didn't peal AT ALL!! In addition, I literally kept my tan for at least three weeks after returning from Hawai'i. One of the more interesting things; I have noticed a difference in my skin. I have never been much of a makeup person, as I like the natural look. Mascara is it. I am 35, so age is slowly creeping up. I started using Vitamin C serum a year ago, but didn't notice much of a difference. After two weeks of using the Maui Babe; my face had a glow and looks so healthy. My fine lines seem to be less and my skin looks more alive. The lotion doesn't irritate my skin one bit, nor did it cause me to have any sort of pimples; however, I am blessed to have never had an issue in that department. I don't know if it will do the same for you that it has done for me, but I feel that the natural ingredients in this secret lotion are magic. Sometimes it's the simplest things that do the trick. I have everyone in my family using it. I highly recommend it!!

A must have for beach babes!
Size: 4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I absolutely love this lotion. If you want to keep your tan longer, and avoid immediate or even soon after peeling, this really works. To sum, it moisturized, prevented peeling and maintained my tan throughout the spring into the summer. The long story-- I began using this product at the end of spring, right after I returned from a Bahamaian vacation in the early spring. I naturally have a year round tan, but in the sun, I become browner and love to maintain that summer bronze glow that happens when I frolic on the beach for days. I knew it was going to be awhile before I could regularly go to the beach so I saw this product and decided to try. I used to not peel, but once I hit my 30s I began to peel regularly, after tanning. Once I started using this, I did not peel AT ALL. And, my tan did not fade. Yes, I still went to the beach with a base tan (which helps when tanning), but I am sure it would've faded quicker without this product. I also didn't start peeling until I ran out of this product. I use it everyday after getting out of the shower, all over my body. I have sensitive skin, and it didn't seem to bother it at all, and it has a light pleasant smell (not strong coconut-y). I highly recommend! Oh, because it's so light, it may not seem to be absorbing properly, but no worries-- it does, without clogging!

Works well!
Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
So far I like this! It is runnier than normal lotion so you don’t need as much. The only thing I don’t like it smells like baby powder to me. But it does work really well with tans!

Love this lotion!!!
Size: 4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The first bottle I received had leaked all over the inside of the package but I sent that back and got a replacement. I love this lotion. I actually first purchased it while I was in Maui 10 years ago. I love the scent of it and it really moisturizes my skin after sunning.
