Black Gold Philodendron (Philodendron melanochrysum)

Black Gold Philodendron is a dramatic climbing houseplant prized for its velvety, dark foliage that looks instantly high-end. It is a great choice if you want a statement plant that feels lush and architectural, especially when trained up a pole. With bright, indirect light and steady care, it rewards you with larger leaves and stronger color over time. If you want a collector-style philodendron that still fits into an approachable routine, Black Gold Philodendron is a standout.

Distinctive Features

This philodendron is known for elongated, heart-shaped leaves with a rich, velvet texture and prominent lighter veining that creates a glowing contrast against the dark surface. As a climber, it produces larger, more impressive foliage when given a moss pole or support and encouraged to grow upward. Mature leaves can become quite large indoors under good conditions, creating a bold vertical display. The combination of velvety texture, deep color, and dramatic scale makes it one of the most striking foliage plants for indoor collections.

Growing Conditions

  • Sun: Bright, indirect light is ideal, and avoid harsh direct sun that can scorch leaves.
  • Soil: Airy, well-drained aroid mix that holds some moisture but never stays soggy.
  • Water: Water when the top 1 to 2 inches of soil dry, and do not let the pot sit in water.
  • Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity supports best leaf size and velvet texture, with average home humidity acceptable.
  • Growth Habit: Climbing vine that benefits from a support pole for larger leaves and a fuller vertical form.

Ideal Uses

  • Focal Point: Train up a moss pole to create a tall, dramatic centerpiece with velvety foliage.
  • Bright Room Corner: Place in a bright corner to add depth, contrast, and a lush tropical feel.
  • Plant Stands: Set on a stand so leaf texture and veining are visible at eye level.
  • Collector Displays: Pair with other aroids to build a layered indoor jungle with contrasting leaf finishes.

Low Maintenance Care

  • Watering: Keep evenly moist but not wet, and allow a partial dry-down between waterings.
  • Support: Provide a moss pole and secure stems, keeping the pole lightly moist if you want faster climbing.
  • Feeding: Feed monthly in spring and summer with a balanced houseplant fertilizer at a moderate strength.
  • Leaf Care: Dust gently with a soft cloth and avoid harsh wiping that can damage velvety leaves.

Why Choose Black Gold Philodendron?

  • Velvety Dark Leaves: Rich texture and deep color create a premium, dramatic look indoors.
  • Gold Veining Contrast: Prominent veins add glow and definition across each leaf.
  • Climbing Statement: Trained growth on a pole produces larger leaves and a stronger vertical display.
  • Collector Appeal: A standout aroid that elevates any indoor plant collection.

Black Gold Philodendron is a great choice when you want a climbing plant with serious visual impact. Give it bright, indirect light, an airy mix, and steady moisture with good drainage, and it will reward you with larger, more dramatic leaves over time. With a support pole and consistent care, it becomes a lasting focal plant that transforms the feel of a room.

Perfect, compact, portable, comfort.
Color: Grey, Size: Small
Got the small one. It's perfect size for camping. I saw other comments with pics of medium and looked too big for portable use. I like down feather pillows and this one is really close to same feel. I recommend it 100%. And I may even buy another one.

I really wanted to like this pillow but I didn't, My son did.
Color: Blue, Size: Medium
I bought two of these Medium pillows for summer camp that my son and I went to this year. Let me start by saying the only reason I don't like it is because its too soft and small for me. By soft I mean the pillow bottoms out when I put my head on it. I measured and it is 4" thick but when I put my head on it, it almost disappears. They could add 20-25% more stuffing and it would be great. My son liked his, I didn't even bring mine. What I did do is stuff a standard size memory foam pillow in the stuff sack and used that! The quality of this pillow is great, the seams were not torn or coming undone like some people said, no rips or stains. the zippier works just fine and IT IS MEMORY FOAM, people who complain that it's not are expecting a brick of foam which this isn't, it is shredded/torn memory foam filling that is exactly like my $60 memory foam pillows that I use on my bed. TLDR its great for kids, not for people with bowling balls for heads like me. WISE OWL, ADD MORE FILLING ! I was able to stuff a pillow 3x the size of this one in the same bag.

Comfy!
Color: Black, Size: Medium
It's very comfortable. It's a good size and thickness. I wish it had a strap to hold it on to your air mattress or cot. Good value!
