Philodendron ‘Black Cardinal’ has blackish green broad oval leaves. On the other hand when new leaves emerge they are initially a burgundy red but as they mature they become a dark green. As the leaves mature it will turn to almost black. Black Cardinal neither vines nor stems. It will remains “self-heading,” meaning mounding and basal.

Philodendrons do best in loose, well-drained soil that is high in organic matter. They will grow in 100% sphagnum peat moss. Soilless mixtures such as peat-vermiculite or peat-perlite are also satisfactory.
