Philodendron Chocolate Empress
Philodendron ‘Choco Empress’ features large and wide, deeply lobed leaves that emerge a bronzy, chocolate color and mature to green. Forms a mostly upright, vase-shaped clump. Commonly grown indoors as a houseplant. This variety gets quite large.
Best grown in fertile, organic, acidic soil that is moist but never waterlogged. Allow the soil to mostly dry out between waterings. Fertilize monthly, more frequently in containers, and water regularly. Philodendrons prefer medium indoor light and do not take well to direct sunlight. Protect from freezing temperatures!
