Characterized by its long, heart shaped leaves with a velvety surface and uber thick cream margins that look similar to the anthurium veitchii, philodendron verrucosum or philodendron gloriosum, it's no surprise it's so desirable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt was first discovered in the wet Andean foothills of Colombia by European collector and horticulturist, Eduoard Andre in 1886. It was him who then named the plant after himself, so it became colloquially known as 'philodendron andreanum'. The now accepted botanical name, 'melanochrysum' hails from the Greek word 'melano' meaning black and 'chrysum' meaning golden. This is why you might hear this plant commonly referred to as the black gold philodendron.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMature forms of this species exhibit a dazzling display of black and gold flecks when struck by sunlight, hence the name! Growing at a staggering 500m above sea level in the regions of Chocó and Antioquia, it's this that makes philodendron melanochrysum care interesting, especially in relation to humidity and temperature.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Greenleaf Garden Center","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42134552281321,"sku":"Philodmelanoch12cm","price":20.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/3312\/files\/Philodendron-melanochrysum-12cm_a24c49a8-8185-4498-98bb-de6293c1ad32.jpg?v=1784629982","url":"https:\/\/green-leaf.gr\/en-eu\/products\/philodendron-melanochryum12cm","provider":"Greenleaf Garden Center","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
