Philodendron Gigas
Philodendron gigas is a stunning and somewhat rare tropical plant known for its impressive foliage. Native to Panama, this epiphytic and climbing philodendron boasts large, velvety leaves that mature from a light bronze to a deep, dark green, exuding a metallic sheen. The leaves are elongated and heart-shaped, often growing quite large as the plant matures, making it a dramatic addition to any indoor plant collection. The new leaves unfurl in a coppery tone, creating a striking contrast against the mature, darker foliage. This climbing Philodendron makes a spectacular addition to any indoor plant collection, especially when provided with a support to climb on, such as a moss pole.
