(Black Cardinal Philodendron, Philodendron)

Glossy bronze and blackish green describes the lush foliage of the Black Cardinal philodendron. A hybrid, low growing, clumping tender perennial shrub, this philodendron is "self heading", meaning it does not climb or sprawl like a vine.

The leaves are broadly oval or truly lance-shaped, emerging light orange or bronze. They slowly mature to a deeper, truly dark green with inclination to nearly black, and oldest leaves on the lowest part of the plant darkest and dullest. Flowers can arise during...

(Philodendron, Pink Princess Philodendron)

The Pink Princess philodendron produces colorful, variegated and speckled leaves like no other. A hybrid tropical herbaceous vine, this selection originated in Australia through breeding of South American native plants. Although a vine, 'Pink Princess' grows slowly, looking more like a clumping mass of leaves rather than a lush, aggressive tropical vine.

Each leaf is a plump pointed arrowhead that grows from the tip of the vine. New leaves emerge hot pink to burgundy in color. As leaves mature...

Showboat philodendron’s stiff waxy green leaves are hand-sized, deeply lobed and held on long stems. It is a lovely clumping plant that stays comparatively low in height compared to other philodendrons, but slightly taller than its parent, 'Xanadu'. This hybrid plant is evergreen and sensitive to frost.

Grow 'Showboat' in a partial sun location for best appearance, but it is very tolerant of full sun. In excessive shade the stems are very elongated and flimsy, often flopping to ground on a lop-sided...

(Cut-leaf Philodendron, Tree Philodendron)

Evoking the exotic lushness of a tropical jungle, cut-leaf philodendron's huge elephant-ear like leaves are impressive. A tree-like evergreen shrub from southern Brazil and Paraguay, it is does not crawl or climb in a vine-like manner, as do most philodendrons. It does grow a tall semi-woody trunk-like stem that often sprawls or twists as the plant ages.

Its immense leaves are its glory. Borne on long stems at the trunk's apex, they are mid- to dark green, glossy and waxy. Each leaf is deeply...

(Cut-leaf Philodendron, Winterbourne Tree Philodendron)

A handsome, small, mounding, tender tropical shrub with lush green foliage, 'Winterbourn' is most commonly referred to as the Xanadu philodendron. Descended from an evergreen species native to southern Brazil and Paraguay, it is considered a "self-heading" philodendron, that is, it does not crawl or climb in a vine-like manner. There is some disagreement as to this cultivar's true origin. Many are convinced it is a hybrid that has the cut-leaf philodendron (P. bipinnatifidum) as merely one...
