Philodendron floriosum ‘Creeping Velvet Philo’ is a rare, terrestrial aroid celebrated for its large, velvety heart-shaped leaves with striking pale veins. Native to Colombia, it grows horizontally along the soil rather than climbing, making it ideal for wide, shallow planters. It thrives in bright, indirect light and a chunky, well-draining mix of orchid bark, perlite, and coco coir. Mature foliage can reach up to 3 feet long, unfurling slowly from a creeping rhizome. Water when the top 2 inches of soil feel dry and maintain humidity above 60% to support lush growth. Contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals—keep out of reach of children and pets.
