Philodendron melanochrysum

Philodendron melanochrysum is an Araceae species from Colombia, known for deep green velvet leaves, pale to golden venation and adult blades that become much more elongated as the plant matures. Young leaves are smaller and more heart-shaped; older leaves gain their strongest proportions once the stem has steady upward support.

Direct sun can mark the soft leaf surface, dry air can make new growth stick or tear, and cold wet roots can slow the plant down. Bright filtered light, an airy mix, warm temperatures and higher humidity help new leaves open more evenly.

Philodendron melanochrysum leaf texture and mature shape

  • Family: Araceae, the aroid family.
  • Foliage: Deep green velvet leaves with pale to golden main veins.
  • Juvenile growth: Young leaves are smaller and more heart-shaped.
  • Mature growth: Leaves become larger and more elongated as the plant gains height.
  • Growth habit: A climbing Philodendron with aerial-root nodes along the stem.
  • Indoor development: Leaf size improves gradually on support, while young plants stay much smaller.
  • Growth rate: Moderate in warm, bright, humid conditions, slower when kept cool or too dry.
  • Safety: Toxic if chewed or swallowed by pets or children.

How Philodendron melanochrysum develops on support

Philodendron melanochrysum grows from an upward stem, and adult leaf size improves when the nodes can attach to a vertical surface. A pole, plank or similar support gives aerial roots contact points and gives each new leaf enough room to expand.

In habitat, Philodendron melanochrysum is associated with humid Colombian forest, where climbing stems develop in filtered light and consistently warm conditions. Indoors, the same growth pattern needs an airy root zone, stable moisture and enough vertical space for the stem to continue upward.

The soft leaf surface should be protected from harsh sun and repeated handling. New leaves emerge delicate and can catch if the air is dry or the plant swings between too dry and too wet. Dry air and irregular watering are most visible while a new leaf is opening.

Care for Philodendron melanochrysum foliage

  • Light: Place Philodendron melanochrysum in bright filtered light. Direct sun can scorch or bleach the leaves.
  • Water: Water after part of the mix has dried. Cold wet substrate can damage roots and stall new growth.
  • Humidity: Higher humidity helps soft new leaves unfurl without sticking or tearing.
  • Temperature: Keep warm and away from cold windows, cold floors and draughts.
  • Substrate: Use a chunky aroid mix that holds light moisture while leaving air around the roots.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots fill the pot, the mix has collapsed or the support no longer suits the stem height.
  • Fertilising: Feed lightly during active growth; reduce feeding when light levels and growth slow.
  • Propagation: Propagate from stem cuttings with at least one node, kept warm and humid while rooting.
  • Leaf care: Avoid rubbing the surface; damaged areas can remain visible on mature leaves.
  • Pruning: Remove damaged leaves at the petiole base or shorten an overlong stem above a healthy node.
  • Support: Provide a pole, plank or similar vertical surface so the stem can develop upward.
  • Semi-hydroponics: Semi-hydro can work when roots are adapted gradually and the reservoir stays clean and oxygenated.

Philodendron melanochrysum leaf issues and pests

  • Stuck new leaves: Low humidity or uneven watering can make soft new growth catch before it opens fully.
  • Brown leaf marks: Direct sun, dry roots or physical rubbing can damage the leaf surface.
  • Yellowing leaves: Check for wet roots, cold substrate or an old mix that has collapsed around the root zone.
  • Pests: Spider mites and thrips can hide on textured foliage and tender new growth, so inspect regularly.

Philodendron melanochrysum toxicity

Philodendron melanochrysum contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals, so leaves, petioles and stems should stay away from pets and children that may chew plants.

Botanical background of Philodendron melanochrysum

Philodendron was described by Heinrich Wilhelm Schott in 1829 in Wiener Zeitschrift für Kunst, Litteratur, Theater und Mode, and the genus name means tree-loving from Greek philo- or philein and dendron. Philodendron melanochrysum was described by Linden and André and published in L’Illustration Horticole in 1873. The species epithet melanochrysum combines Greek elements for dark or black and gold, referring to the contrast between the dark leaf surface and warm pale venation.

A velvet-leaved Colombian Philodendron with dark foliage, warm venation and elongated mature leaves on support.

Great Mineral supplement, easily incorporated into food/drinks. No notable taste!
Flavor Name: Unflavored, Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I would give 20 Stars if I could, too. It takes a few to 6 weeks to begin to experience the benefits, but when you do: Increasd energy, stamina, fingernails are stronger, and more. The liquid blends easily with any drink you have, it's pretty much flavorless and seems easily digestible.

Good stuff
Flavor Name: Unflavored, Size: 8 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I agree with many of the reviews, as far as the taste being horrible…It really is, it’s just so salty, that it doesn’t want to go down..I now mix it with a small amount of juice, equivalent to a shot glass…I can still taste it but nothing bad..You can try brushing your teeth first or suck on an ice cube before hand…That numbs the taste buds It’s definitely a good product…The first day I took it, I did a 1/2 tsp = 40 drops, at night…I had horrible dreams and I never remember any of my dreams ever and I woke up with a mild headache that lasted just about all day..I wasn’t going to continue the drops…I then decided to divide the dosage in 1/2, I took 20 drops in the morning and 20 at night…That made a huge difference..I wake up no problem in the mornings. I don’t feel tired,I feel more focused now and my hot flashes aren’t as bad…I also have more energy throughout the day..I don’t have issues with pain, my one knee does click and that’s even gotten better. I have been taking it for about a week now…My husband is also taking it, ever since he had “Covid”, back in 2021,he had dry mouth and was drinking so much water and it wasn’t helping…He’s been on it for about 4 days now and has noticed a big difference in the dry mouth. I will definitely continue to take this product. I don’t normally write reviews, unless either, I really like a product or despise one and try and let people know. It is a little pricey compared to others, but it lasts a long time…Our foods now are depleted because the soil isn’t rich in minerals anymore..I would definitely recommend this product.

Great product

Product is easy to use. Started out slow as it recommends. It never caused upset stomach. I use it daily in my first water of the day. There is no flavor to it nor smell. I recommend this product.

Add the right amount
Flavor Name: Unflavored, Size: 8 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Previous reviewers are adding too much of Concentrace to filtered water. Add only about 20 drops in a gallon of Zero Water filtered water. This will bring the TDS (total dissolved solid) from 0, after using the Zero Water pitcher, which is basically distilled water, to about 110 TDS an ideal level. This doesn't mean that this will replace all of your daily mineral needs because water alone is not designed to do this. You will get the rest of the needed minerals from food and any supplements that you may take. You may also want to consider using a LifeStraw pitcher after filtering with the Zero Water pitcher. Because the Zero Water will remove all dissolved solid including some bacteria, PFAS, and microplastics. But LifeStraw will remove most of the microplastics, DBPs, VOCs, PFAS and pharmaceuticals. One long filter in the Life Straw pitcher will last over a year since you're already using filtered water, but the round filter would need more frequent replacement - it has 2 parts. You must use both filters in the Life Straw pitcher, even after using the Zero Water pitcher. There's a new documentary special on Netflix (May/'26) on microplastics and its dangers that everyone should see. Extremely informative.
