    Philodendron Congo Green

    Botanical Name: Philodendron t. melanochlorum

    Common Name(s): Congo Green Philodendron, Green Congo

    The Philodendron Congo Green is a bold and robust tropical plant celebrated for its large, glossy, deep green leaves that grow in a compact, upright formation. Unlike vining philodendrons, the Congo Green has a self-supporting growth habit, making it ideal as a low-maintenance statement plant for corners, tabletops, or office spaces. Its thick stems and leathery leaves give it a lush, sculptural presence, typically reaching 2–3 feet in height and width when mature.

    This plant thrives in bright, indirect light, but it can also adapt to lower light conditions, making it versatile for various indoor settings. It prefers well-draining potting soil and should be watered when the top 1–2 inches of soil feel dry. Avoid letting the plant sit in water to prevent root rot. Warm temperatures between 65–85°F (18–29°C) and moderate humidity levels are ideal, though it can tolerate some fluctuations.

    Air Purifying Qualities:

    Toxin Removal: The Congo Green Philodendron helps purify indoor air by removing harmful toxins such as formaldehyde and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs), promoting a healthier indoor environment.

    Oxygen Production: Like other philodendrons, the Congo Green contributes to improved indoor air quality by efficiently converting carbon dioxide into oxygen.

    Humidity Regulation: Through transpiration, this plant adds moisture to the air, helping to balance dry indoor climates and support respiratory comfort.

    Note: The Philodendron Congo Green is toxic to pets (cats and dogs) if ingested. Keep it out of reach of pets and children, and monitor for any signs of chewing or ingestion.

    Care Insights & Expert Tips

    Sunlight

    Bright, indirect light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can cause leaf discoloration and scorch the leaves. Insufficient light will cause red hue to fade.

    Water

    Water weekly: Water when the top soil is dry, typically every 7-10 days. Reduce watering in winter and ensure the pot has drainage to prevent root rot. Avoid overwatering. 

    Temperature

    Warm temperatures: Thrives in temperatures between 65-85°F (18-29°C) and moderate-to-high humidity.

      1. Fertilize regularly: Feed your plant with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength every 4 weeks during the spring and summer season.
      2. Monitor for pests: Keep an eye out for common houseplant pests like mealybugs and spider mites. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
      3. Avoid Cold Drafts: This Philodendron prefers warm, consistent temperature. Avoid sudden reduced temperatures changes. 
      4. Repotting: Repot every 1-2 years or when the plant becomes root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix, such as peat-based or general houseplant mix, and select a pot that’s just 1-2 inches larger than the current one.
