Philodendron 'Majestic'

Philodendron 'Majestic' is a climbing hybrid of Philodendron verrucosum and Philodendron sodiroi, combining velvet texture, silver surface patterning, and warm colour on the leaf undersides. New leaves often open lighter before maturing into deeper green blades with a metallic cast. As the plant climbs, the leaves can become larger and more defined, especially when aerial roots are allowed to attach to a support.

Philodendron 'Majestic' was created by Keith Henderson and later named by Neil Crafter, and it has been accepted into the Aroid Cultivar Registry. The verrucosum × sodiroi parentage is visible in its velvet texture, silver patterning, warm leaf undersides and climbing growth.

  • Parentage: Philodendron verrucosum × Philodendron sodiroi.
  • Cultivar background: Created by Keith Henderson and later named by Neil Crafter.
  • Leaf surface: Dark green, softly textured leaves with silver mottling and a subtle metallic sheen.
  • Growth habit: Climbing Philodendron with aerial roots that develop best against a vertical support.

A registered verrucosum × sodiroi hybrid

Philodendron verrucosum contributes velvet texture, prominent venation and warm colouring beneath the leaves, while Philodendron sodiroi contributes silver patterning and climbing growth. On mature leaves, the silver mottling becomes clearer against the darker green surface.

A moss pole, coir pole, or similar support keeps the stem aligned and gives the nodes contact points for aerial roots. Supported growth helps the plant develop larger foliage and keeps the climbing stem easier to train as it matures.

Light, humidity and support for Majestic

  • Light: Provide bright filtered light. Avoid direct midday sun, which can mark the soft leaf surface and dry new growth too quickly.
  • Watering: Keep the substrate lightly and evenly moist, then let the upper few centimetres dry before watering again.
  • Substrate: Use a loose aroid mix with bark, pumice, perlite, coco chips, and a small moisture-retentive fraction.
  • Humidity: Moderate to high humidity helps new leaves expand cleanly and reduces crisping on soft edges.
  • Temperature: Keep it around 20–27°C. Cold wet substrate can quickly weaken the roots.
  • Support: Train the stem early and tie loosely at the nodes so aerial roots can attach without pressure damage.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth. A steady low-dose routine is safer than heavy feeding for velvet-leaved hybrids.

Leaf and root warning signs

  • Yellowing lower leaves with wet mix: Check drainage and root condition. Refresh compacted substrate if the pot stays wet for too long.
  • Crisp new edges: Check humidity, watering gaps, and airflow around expanding leaves.
  • Long gaps between leaves: Check light and support. A climbing stem stretches when it has weak light or nothing to root into.
  • Dull or marked silvering: Check for dust, old surface damage, and pests on the leaf undersides.

Handling and pet safety

Philodendron 'Majestic' is toxic if chewed. Its tissues contain calcium oxalate crystals that can irritate the mouth, throat, digestive tract, and skin. Keep it out of reach of pets and children, and handle cut stems with care.

Parent names and cultivar background

Philodendron is an Araceae genus native from Mexico through tropical America. The genus name comes from Greek roots often translated as “loving” and “tree.” The parent epithet verrucosum refers to a warty or roughened surface, while sodiroi honours Luis Sodiro, a botanist associated with Ecuadorian flora.

Philodendron 'Majestic' combines velvet texture, silver mottling and warm leaf undersides in a registered verrucosum × sodiroi hybrid.

Very good, entertaining mystery.
Format: Mass Market Paperback
I don't know if this author has written other books before beginning this series but it is a very good FIRST in what is so far just a 3 book series. I ordered all 3 but am reading them in order as I always do. The author tends to go into too much detail about mundane things about things like fixing a meal, etc., but it isn't too distracting from the story. I like a little hominess but this is overdone just a tad. The story moved right along establishing characters without throwing in so many that you simply can't keep them all straight as some authors do. A thoroughly despicable victim so nobody cares if he dies violently. And, to me, a reeeely surprise ending. For someone who has read as many mysteries as I have, this was a pleasant surprise and the author doesn't give you hints till you are almost at the reveal so that you feel clever at figuring it out but you don't figure it out too early and you are still a bit surprised that you were "right" about who did it. Also, the "hero" is a thoroughly likeable guy. Don't you hate it when the "hero" or "heroine" just comes across as someone you don't really like much. You know, the one that if he or she gets beat up, you sort of feel like they deserved it and you've not really sorry. Well, if something bad had happened to "Charlie" I'd have been very upset. Now, if #2 will just show up I'll get on with the series. This is a series I'll be keeping in my library to reread in a couple of years.

OK book
Format: Kindle
I read this for our book club, got the book on Kindle, so the "back of the book" description was not there...It took me a while to get into the book. I'm used to female lead characters, and I had to adjust for the lead character to be Mr. Charlie. The manners shown by the characters are a bit dated, by about 40 years, but it's nice to be re-exposed to good manners. Loved Deisel the cat, but whenever he's mentioned (which is a lot) it tells he's a cat. That got to be old, fast. Otherwise, it was a good book, quick read. I was rather shocked to learn that Miranda James is just a pen name for a male writer.

A cat, a murdered author, and a librarian cum sleuth - what more do you need?
Format: Kindle
Murder Past Due has it all. A small town where everyone knows everyone, return of the prodigal son, murder, and a just-nosy-enough archivist with connections to them all. My favorite character is Diesel, the cat, though his primary role is as a comforting presence. I would have been happy with more of a supporting role for him—there were a few moments where I thought he would get one, but it didn’t quite take off. The mystery engaged me and kept me reading. I had it nearly figure out in the last fifty pages, but there were satisfying twists leaving me pleasantly surprised right up to the end. I was distracted by excess verbiage (Southern style?), and something ever so flat about the main character. He said he was surprised or upset or missed certain people, but I just didn’t feel it. Still, I think I will read book two, and that merits a solid four stars.

The cat didn't do it!
Format: Mass Market Paperback
I bought the book, because it looked so cute. Plus, I love cats! It was a cozy mystery with the cat as a constant companion of the protagonist. It made for a delightful story. I don't usually read low key mysteries, but I thoroughly enjoyed the humor, the cat, and the murder mystery. I plan on buying the next one. Ms. James has a writing style that you will enjoy her stories. You will not get bored.
