Philodendron Caramel Marble

The Philodendron ‘Caramel Marble’, with its foliage variegated in golden caramel, deep green, and cream, is quite an exceptional houseplant. With a climbing or trailing habit, it adapts to many interior decoration styles. Place it on a support or position it high on a pedestal to better display its beautiful foliage. Provide it with bright light and mist it regularly.

The Philodendron Caramel Marble belongs to the Araceae family. The Philodendron genus, native to the tropical forests of Central and South America, thrives in humid and rather shaded environments. This variety has a climbing habit and can reach between 80 cm and 1.20 m in height with a spread of 60 cm to 1 m, depending on growing conditions. Its leaves, thick and slightly glossy, are elongated heart-shaped or lanceolate, each measuring between 15 and 30 cm in length. Each leaf is a living work of art, with randomly marbled patterns in dark green, pearly cream, and coppery caramel, which vary depending on light intensity and the leaf's age. Its growth is fairly rapid if its needs are met. This plant is toxic if ingested, due to its calcium oxalate crystal content.

The Philodendron ‘Caramel Marble’ is the perfect plant to enhance a bright living room or a not-too-cold conservatory. Pair it with plants that enjoy the same conditions, such as the Calathea 'White Fusion', with its white-variegated leaves, or the Philodendron 'Birkin', whose dark green striate foliage creates a luminous contrast with the warm tones of the 'Caramel Marble'.
