Philodendron gloriosum is a stunning, slow-growing crawler known for its large, velvety heart-shaped leaves with bold white veining. Unlike climbing philodendrons, gloriosum grows horizontally across the soil, spreading out rather than upward. Its lush, tropical foliage gives any space a dramatic and elegant presence.

Pro Tip

Because it crawls along the surface, plant it in a wide, shallow pot rather than a deep one to give it room to spread.

  • Light and Placement


    Prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sun, which can damage the delicate leaves. A north- or east-facing window, or a well-lit room with filtered light, will keep its velvety texture and bold veining looking vibrant.

  • Watering and Care

    Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Philodendron gloriosum prefers a well-draining, chunky mix with good airflow to the roots. It appreciates moderate humidity and benefits from a regular misting or placement near a humidifier, especially during dry months.

  • Growth and Size

    This is a crawling (not vining or upright) philodendron. It spreads low and wide, with mature leaves reaching 6 to 12 inches across indoors. Over time, it can form an impressive horizontal structure when given room to grow.

  • Pet-Friendly?

    Philodendron gloriosum is considered toxic if ingested. Best to keep out of reach of pets who may be tempted to chew.

  • Benefits and Air Quality

    While not a standout for purification, its large leaves help increase indoor greenery and visual softness, especially in lower, open spaces.

  • Difficulty level

    Moderate – It prefers a consistent watering schedule and higher humidity, but will thrive when its environment is stable.
