Velvet Leaf Philodendron (Philodendron micans)
Velvet Leaf Philodendron possesses a simple unassuming beauty in the velvety, iridescent foliage, and it makes an easy-care specimen for your houseplant collection. The heart-shaped leaves exhibit a range of colors from bronze to light and dark green, and there are pink and purple highlights on the new growth. This colorful philodendron performs well in bright filtered light or even low light conditions. If the vines get too long, just prune them back to your desired length and the cuttings can be rooted in water or perlite to create another plant for yourself or a gardening friend.
