The Philodendron Splendid is rightly named, because as a cross of the sought-after Philodendron rarities Melanochrysum and Verrucosum, it combines their most outstanding characteristics. From the Philodendron Melanochrysum it inherited the velvety green leaves, from which the cream-colored leaf veins contrast, and from the Philodendron Verrucosum the ease of care. These captivating attributes make it a magnificent addition to any plant collection.

Ben's tips on plant care:

- Habitat/Light Requirements: partial shade to light, avoid direct sunlight.
- Substrate: Ben's Babyplant Soil, special soil, later Ben's Premium Sphagnum Moss, Ben's Philodendron & Monstera Soil, special soil.
- Temperature: optimal at 23-27° C (day), 16-18° C (night), do not let cool down below 12°C
- Watering: keep substrate moist and water when the top layer of substrate begins to dry, using lukewarm water with low lime content, but avoid waterlogging. Water less in winter.
- Humidity: needs high humidity, spray regularly (but leaves should be allowed to dry afterwards!) or use humidifier.
- Nutrient addition: In spring/summer about every 4-6 weeks with liquid fertilizer.
- Repot approximately every 1-2 years, when the plant is properly rooted.
- This Philodendron is somewhat sensitive to waterlogging, so appropriate drainage is especially important.
