Philodendron 'Green Dragon' – Fast-Growing Hybrid with Distinctive Lobed Foliage

Philodendron 'Green Dragon' is a vigorous hybrid, believed to have Philodendron bipennifolium in its parentage. Its bold, pinnate lobes give the leaves a sculptural appearance, while occasional golden splashes of variegation add extra ornamental value. This fast-growing climber adapts easily to indoor culture and quickly develops into an impressive specimen with proper support.

Key features of 'Green Dragon'

  • Leaf form: deeply lobed, pinnate blades with an unusual silhouette.
  • Colour: fresh green foliage, sometimes showing golden variegated streaks.
  • Growth habit: fast-growing, scandent philodendron with strong climbing ability.
  • Display impact: large, architectural leaves that bring a tropical statement indoors.

Background and hybrid origin

While its exact breeding remains uncertain, 'Green Dragon' is widely believed to involve P. bipennifolium, known for its dragon-shaped leaf outline. This hybrid builds on those traits with greater vigour and ornamental variation, making it an attractive choice for collectors who value bold foliage forms.

Care instructions for Philodendron 'Green Dragon'

  • Light: thrives in bright, indirect light; occasional golden variegation shows best with steady exposure.
  • Temperature: ideal at 20 – 28 °C; growth slows if temperatures fall below 16 °C.
  • Humidity: prefers 60 – 80%, though it tolerates average indoor levels.
  • Watering: water when the top 2 – 3 cm of substrate are dry; avoid letting roots sit in water.
  • Substrate: chunky, well-draining aroid mix with bark, perlite, and coco coir.
  • Feeding: regular, diluted fertilisation during the growing season supports rapid growth.
  • Support: benefits from a moss pole or trellis to climb and produce larger leaves.

Common grower challenges

  • Small leaves: usually from lack of climbing support; provide a pole for larger blades.
  • Variegation fading: insufficient light can reduce golden streaks; increase filtered brightness.
  • Yellowing foliage: often caused by excess watering or poorly drained substrate.
  • Pests: watch for thrips or mites, especially on tender new leaves.

Collector’s notes

  • Comparison: shares traits with P. bipennifolium but grows faster and can develop variegation.
  • Impact: lobed leaves give a tropical, dragon-like aesthetic rare among hybrids.
  • Rarity: not widely distributed, making it a standout in curated collections.
  • Toxicity: philodendrons contain calcium oxalate; keep away from pets and children.

Etymology

Genus:Philodendron (Schott, 1830), from Greek philo- “loving” + dendron “tree,” referencing its natural climbing behaviour.Cultivar name: ‘Green Dragon’ refers to its bold, lobed foliage reminiscent of a dragon’s outline.

Propagation and growth

  • Propagation: stem cuttings with at least one node root reliably in warm, humid setups.
  • Medium: sphagnum moss or fine bark/perlite blends ensure quick root establishment.
  • Indoor size: fast climber reaching 1 – 2 m indoors with support; leaves expand with maturity.

Why Philodendron 'Green Dragon' deserves a spot in your collection

With its dragon-like lobed leaves, fast growth, and occasional golden variegation, Philodendron 'Green Dragon' is a bold and rewarding hybrid for collectors who appreciate unusual foliage forms.

Goes on plentiful, but doesn't stay.
I enjoyed this glitter when I first applied it, but it falls off even if you use lotion or something to stick it to your face. It would be great to use as pixi dust, but not for facial glitter. I use a more dense glitter for my face to make sure it shows up. I use it in my hair, and that stays for a while, but it takes a lot to show up/ The containers are cute though and don't get clogged. There is no scent to it, which I am happy about because I did not want scent.

My only issue is, it come off fast. Other than that, this is exactly what I was looking for. I recommend putting on some type of lotion or maybe even some Vaseline given something to stick to.

Fun, easy and quality
These little bottles are adorable. The glitter comes out without a mess. If using on hair for a devotation use hair glue to make the design. Otherwise, the simple sweet lite glitter touch finishes a style nicely.

love love loved it
I am now 55 years old and i love shinny stuff, so i decided I wanted glitter for my hair. I found this and am in love. It is very fine glitter and it just goes on my hair every so subtly. It catches the sun just right and i sparkle just like my personality. Not too much too look crazy just enough to look nice. Looks good on the arms and legs too for a night of dancing.
