Philodendron 'Congo Green' is a large-leaved tropical plant with a strong, upright growth habit and dense, glossy foliage. Developed as an indoor hybrid, it traces its ancestry to tropical philodendrons native to South America, adapted for growing in warm, humid forest floors. The leaves are broad, smooth, and deep green, growing tightly around thick, self-supporting stems without the need for climbing supports. Indoors, it forms a bushy, architectural shape that gives rooms a bold, structured look.
Each leaf is oval to slightly elongated, with a natural gloss that highlights its deep green color. The leaves can reach 12 inches or longer when mature, creating a full canopy around the base of the plant. Unlike climbing philodendron species, Congo Green stays compact and vertical, with new leaves emerging tightly curled before unfolding into large, sturdy forms. It usually grows to 2 to 4 feet tall and wide indoors, depending on the pot size and growing conditions.
Compared to vining philodendrons like Philodendron hederaceum or larger split-leaf types like Philodendron selloum, Congo Green grows in a more upright, self-contained form. It does not trail or climb, making it suitable for filling vertical spaces without sprawling or requiring support structures. Its steady, upright growth and the heavy weight of the stems give it a solid, grounded appearance.
In addition to its striking foliage, this Philodendron's s foliage helps improve indoor air quality by contributing to natural air exchange processes. It adapts well to indoor life, tolerating varying humidity and lighting conditions once established. Its upright, solid growth habit allows it to fit well into tall, narrow planters, making it an excellent choice as a centerpiece plant or a statement feature in rooms and open spaces.
-
Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its vibrant, lush foliage. It can tolerate lower light but will grow more slowly and may develop smaller leaves.
Allow the top 2 inches of soil to dry out between waterings, watering thoroughly when needed. Consistent overwatering should be avoided to prevent root rot.
Thrives in moderate to high humidity levels, ideally around 50–70%. Occasional misting or a nearby humidifier can help in dry indoor environments.
Grows best at temperatures between 65–85°F. It should be protected from drafts and kept above 60°F to avoid stress.
Use a rich, well-draining potting mix formulated for tropical plants, typically containing peat, perlite, and orchid bark. Proper aeration encourages strong root development.
Feed once a month during the growing season with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer. Pause fertilizing during the cooler months when the plant's growth slows naturally.
Philodendron 'Congo Green' is toxic if ingested by pets and humans. Always place it safely out of reach of children and animals.

Nice All Cotton Shirt
Size: Large, Color: Medium Grey Heather, Pocket Description: Front Pocket
Nice shirt. Heavy cotton. I'll wear this for work. Heavier than Carhartt. Good value. And this gray is usually 95% cotton from Carhartt or Riggs. My preference is 100% cotton.
I normally wear XL but finding all the vendors XL's are too baggy now. This L is a good fit.

Not my ideal, but a good shirt for the money
Size: Large, Color: Light Olive, Pocket Description: Front Pocket
This is a heavier-weight shirt than the standard inexpensive tee. The material is a bit stiff, even after washing. As with most of the Amazon brand shirts of various types I have bought, the sleeves are a bit shorter than I would like. Both the sleeves and overall length are shorter than the Russell Athletic shirts I usually buy, although this cost quite a bit less. The fit is also a bit more snug, so I would say it runs just a bit small.

awesome shirt
Color: Off White&black, Size: XX-Large
really was expecting to hate this shirt for some reason, but was extremely pleased with it. the fabric is not my favorite, but was still comfortable and the fabric helps retain the shape and colors. horizontal stripes can be tricky but the off white color helps as does the texture of the fabric. love it.
