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.

Anxiety Relief for Elderly Dog
Pattern Name: Heartbeat Sheep Grey, Pattern Name: Heartbeat Sheep Grey
My son and daughter-in-law's 13 year old Chihuahua has been suffering from separation anxiety, and just general anxiety during the covid19 lockdown. While she's in dental school, he's been living with us full time, and she was living at school during the week and with us on weekends. But with campus closed down, there's full-time school anxiety from doggie Mom, and going to work in a plague anxiety from doggie Dad. And nobody has much time for poor stressed out doggie, who barks and whines and is generally unpleasant. The only thing that seems to calm him down is to hold him. All. Day. Long. None of us has time. I decided to see if what works for puppies might work for an old man dog too. Guess what, it does! I started by holding the dog and the lamb on my lap for an evening while watching TV. The next morning I put the lamb in a bed next to my computer while I worked, and he climbed into the bed himself. He never would have done that before! You can't see the lamb in the picture, it's tucked under the canopy. The heartbeat is very relaxing- you do hear it, but it's more like you feel it than hear it, really. I have to admit that the first night when I was holding him, the heartbeat put me to sleep too. When my daughter-in-law came down for lunch, she took dog and lamb back up with her, and he slept with the lamb all afternoon and let her study without interruption. I don't know how long the batteries will last, or how hard they will be to change, but so far this has been a real comfort to an anxious old man dog. ETA- I've ordered batteries (40 for $6.99), and I may order another lamb for upstairs so we don't have to remember whether it's on Mom & Dad's or Grandma's floor. He's a much happier dog.

Pillow is Unsafe
My eleven month old Cavalier, Lacey, loved this heartbeat pillow for about two hours. She carried it everywhere. Then she located the velcro opening. She ripped it open, pulled out the stuffing. I stuffed the heart in the bottom but I cannot locate it in the pillow nor have I found it anywhere in my home. Velcro closure is not enough to keep a curious puppy from figuring out how to open the pillow. Would I recommend this product: No I do not recommend this item. It was a total waste of my hard earned $. The closure needs to be reworked/improved. As it is now, do not leave your puppy alone with this heartbeat pillow because it is not safe! The only positive is it kept Lacey from barking for two hours while she played with it. I cannot attest that it would have helped her severe separation anxiety and yelping every time I leave the house. Lynne Weston Amazon Customer

my dogs love these! their new constant companions!
When I first opened the box and saw these three octopuses, I thought they looked a little anemic, but looks can definitely be deceiving because my dogs love them. We try to be really careful about the toys we buy because one of my dogs swallowed a squeaker in the past and had to have surgery. Ever since then, we've been really mindful about what toys they have and making sure we're watching them when they play. I have to say these have been great. My dogs carry them everywhere. They take them outside, bring them back inside, and I've had to wash them multiple times because they are so loved and so well used. For some reason, my dog who is a constant chewer and destroyer of toys has not chewed through these. They feel relatively tough, especially considering how lightweight they are. They do have a squeaker inside, but they also have something crinkly in them that makes noise when the dogs are running around and playing with them. My dogs seem to love that. My dogs also look super cute running around with the octopus legs hanging out of their mouths. Fun product!
