SCIENTIFIC NAME: Philodendron erubescens 'Black Cardinal'

KNOWN AS: Black Cardinal Philodendron, Maroon Philodendron

CLIMATE (LOCATION): South America | Tropical Rainforest

DESCRIPTION: The Black Cardinal is a stunning self-heading (non-climbing) Philodendron known for its dramatic, large, spade-shaped leaves. New growth emerges a vibrant burgundy-red, eventually maturing into a deep, glossy brownish-black. Unlike many vining Philodendrons, this variety grows in a tight, bushy rosette, making it an excellent floor plant or tabletop centerpiece for those who love "goth" tropicals.
