Philodendron Verruscosum in 6 cm pot

Commonly referred to as the Warty Philodendron.  Native to the tropical forests of Ecuador and Peru.

The Philodendron Verrucosum is a climbing, tropical houseplant.  Sought after for its beautiful heart-shaped leaves that are a striking deep green velvet with a red underside.

Preferring a warm and humid spot in bright, indirect light but equally happy utilising a shady corner with little light.  A bathroom or kitchen would be ideal for its love of humidity!  

Water when the top of the soil begins to dry, the Philodendron Verrucosum likes to be consistently moist but will suffer if the roots are allowed to sit in water for prolonged periods.
