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.

Great daily sunscreen with lightweight feel
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using this sunscreen daily and I really like it. It feels very light on the skin, absorbs quickly, and does not leave a greasy or heavy feeling. It also works well under makeup and does not cause breakouts. I feel my skin is well protected from the sun and it’s gentle enough for everyday use. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a reliable sunscreen.

Great for oily acne-prone skin
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have oily, acne-prone skin, and this sunscreen has worked really well for me. It doesn’t feel overly greasy or too dry, and it sits nicely on my skin without making my face feel heavy.
I’ve been using it for a long time, and honestly, it’s the only sunscreen I keep going back to because it works so well with my skin.
It feels comfortable for daily use and gives good protection without causing extra breakouts for me.

Great for oily skin!
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Definitely leaves white cast, I’m pretty fair skinned, makes me look like a ghost. Just rub it in your hands first, breaks into the mineral so minimize the white cast look. It feels lightweight and as someone with pretty oily skin it does a pretty good job!

Great for Oily, Rash-Prone Skin, But Be Wary of the Residue
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This sunscreen is a really solid option if you have sensitive, rash-prone, and oily skin like mine. I’ve found it’s one of the few sunscreens that doesn't cause any irritation, which is a huge benefit for me. On top of that, it leaves a truly matte finish, so I don't feel greasy or shiny throughout the day.
The only reason I can't give it five stars is that it leaves behind small, dried white bits on my face. They can be a bit annoying and make the application look a little messy.
Overall, it's a good sunscreen that works well with my skin type, but the white residue is a definite drawback.

This stuff is magic!
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I farm and garden. I spend hours outdoors in the summer, and for years, I’ve hated wearing sunscreen because it made my face feel hot and sticky. This sunscreen is none of that. I received a small sample tube of it from the dermatologist and instantly fell in love with it. It goes on smooth and covers well. But the thing I love about it is that I don’t feel like I’m wearing sunscreen once it absorbs into my skin. I forget about it! It doesn’t combine with my sweat and run into my eyes, making them sting. It doesn’t irritate sensitive skin or clog my pores. This stuff is magic and I will be using it daily. It’s not the least expensive sunscreen out there, but it’s worth it!
