Philodendron Congo Green
Philodendron Congo Green
I'm the Philodendron Green Congo - the philodendron that skipped the climbing phase entirely. I'm what growers call 'self-heading': I build myself into a dense green throne of huge, glossy leaves with zero need for totems, stakes or scaffolding. There's literally a patent on this convenience.
My care is embarrassingly simple: medium to bright indirect light, a drink when my topsoil dries, and a slow-release feed a couple of times a year to fuel those enormous leaves. I get wider and more impressive; you take the credit.
What you'll get (no surprises):
- Large - 200mm nursery pot, approx 25-40cm tall (and building)
Pets: throne room off-limits to chewers - toxic if nibbled.
Keep my crown gleaming with Leaf Shine and seat me in a Cooper Pot in Grey.
🌱 One tree planted with every order.

Feeding your indoor plants
To get the best out of your indoor plants, you will need to feed them some food. The Good Plant Co Indoor Plant Food will provide all the nutrients they need to grow more leaves and help them stay strong. When the plant is actively growing during the warmer months, it needs a bit more food and water. During the slow growing season (cooler winter months) your plant doesn’t eat or drink as much (no extra winter layer of fat for these babies). Sometimes it’s ok to be a helicopter parent – respond to your plant’s needs. To keep the dust off your beautiful indoor plant leaves use The Good Plant Co Leaf Shine. Moral of the story, if it is growing new leaves then it will need more water and food!
We take great care in growing, packaging, and shipping your new plants so they’re ready to thrive in your home. This includes keeping them safe while they travel from our wholesale nursery to your doorstep.
