Philodendron gloriosum
Philodendron gloriosum is a Colombian crawling Philodendron grown for large heart-shaped leaves with a velvety surface and pale venation. Its surface-running stem moves sideways across the substrate and produces one new leaf at a time from the active growing tip. A wide, shallow pot gives the stem room to advance while the root zone stays airy and evenly drained.
The creeping stem has visible internodes and persistent cataphylls, and it belongs at the substrate surface. Roots grow down into the mix while the active tip continues forward across the pot.
Philodendron gloriosum velvet leaves and crawling growth
- Leaf shape: Broad, heart-shaped blades become larger as the creeping stem establishes.
- Texture: The velvety surface gives mature leaves a deep green, matte finish.
- Venation: Pale veins define the blade shape and become more pronounced as leaves harden.
- Growth habit: A surface-creeping stem needs horizontal pot space and an airy substrate surface.
- Family: Araceae.
How Philodendron gloriosum creeps across the pot
Philodendron gloriosum develops one leaf at a time from a crawling stem. The stem should stay visible on top of the substrate, with roots growing down into an airy aroid mix. Deep planting keeps moisture around the stem and increases the risk of rot.
As the stem advances, the plant builds a low, spreading shape with new leaves emerging from the active tip. A pot with open substrate ahead of the growing point supports cleaner growth, especially once the stem begins reaching the pot edge.
Care for Philodendron gloriosum crawling stems
- Pot shape: Choose a wider pot so the creeping stem has room to move forward.
- Stem position: Keep the surface-running stem visible and clear of wet, compacted mix.
- Watering: Water when the upper 25–35% of the pot has dried, then let the surface settle before watering again.
- Substrate: Use an airy aroid mix that holds light moisture while draining quickly around the roots.
- Light: Provide bright indirect light to support broad leaves and steady growth.
- Humidity: Moderate to high humidity helps new leaves open with fewer tears or stuck edges.
- Temperature: Keep it warm, ideally around 18–27°C, and protect it from cold draughts.
- Fertilizing: Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced fertiliser diluted below full strength.
- Repotting: Repot when the growing stem reaches the pot edge or root growth has filled the container.
- Propagation: Stem sections with at least one node can root in a warm, humid setup.
- Pruning: Remove damaged leaves at the base of the petiole and keep old, wet cataphyll material from collecting around the stem.
- Mineral substrates: It can adapt to airy semi-hydro or mineral substrates if the creeping stem stays above the wet zone.
Philodendron gloriosum stem and leaf issues
- Soft creeping stem: Check planting depth and moisture; the stem should sit on top of the mix.
- Yellow leaves: Often linked to heavy substrate or overwatering around the roots.
- Torn new leaves: Improve humidity and keep watering steadier while leaves are expanding.
- Stalled growth: Check whether the growing tip has run out of horizontal space.
- Pests: Check the undersides of leaves and the petiole bases for thrips, spider mites and mealybugs.
- Leaf spotting: Improve airflow around the plant and keep the velvety leaf surface dry after watering.
Pet safety for Philodendron gloriosum
Philodendron gloriosum is toxic if eaten and can irritate the mouth and digestive tract. Place it away from pets and wash your hands after handling cut or damaged tissue.
Philodendron gloriosum published name and etymology
The genus name Philodendron comes from Greek roots meaning tree-loving, a reference to climbing and tree-associated growth in much of the genus. Philodendron gloriosum was described by Édouard André and published in Illustration Horticole in 1876. The species epithet gloriosum means glorious or splendid, matching the broad velvety leaves and pale venation seen on mature plants.
Philodendron gloriosum brings a low, spreading growth habit together with large velvet leaves and bold pale veins.

Winter strikes again
Format: Kindle
No one writes an ice queen quite like Lee Winter. This book has less of her tongue in cheek humor and is a little more angsty. The main characters meet again by chance, or as Sienna would say, fate. Jasmine only vaguely remembers teenage Sienna, and actually thought she was a boy. Sienna, of course, remembers Jasmine because her influence changed the course of Sienna's life.

finding love after your heart crumbles
Format: Kindle
Tatum Ward is a waitress in her small town of Trove Hills, Illinois. She has a side gig of writing difficult texts for others who want to break up or quit their job or something equally difficult. She doesn’t charge people for that. She just enjoys writing, and at this point in her life, that’s all the writing she can accomplish. She lives in a cottage by her parents’ house, close enough to hear if something were to go wrong. And she is still dealing with the fact that she and her siblings have a secret brother they never knew about.
Tatum’s father had admitted to an affair many years before, but he had just recently found out that it had resulted in a son, and now he wants the entire family to get together. Tatum is not ready for that. So when her favorite customer at the diner, June, gets dumped by a text that Tatum was asked to write, Tatum is devastated and apologized profusely. June is a fragrance designer who is about to travel to New York City for an important meeting about her perfumes, but she isn’t sure she can She was counting on her girlfriend for moral support. So Tatum pipes up and offers to go with her.
Eleanor Chapman is a press agent for Broadway shows, and when she finds out that her occasional hookup just proposed to his girlfriend after 4 years, she sent a company-wide email congratulating him, since he’s a producer that they represent. But then Eleanor follows that up with a message to his new fiancé telling her about their relationship. Suddenly, Eleanor finds herself without a job and wanting to get out of town to clear her head. She asks on social media if anyone can watch her cats at her apartment in New York for a week, and June responds. Tatum offers up her cottage to Eleanor, and she and June can use her apartment in New York City and take care of the cats.
When Eleanor comes to Trove Hills, she makes herself comfortable in Eleanor’s cottage. She is having a quiet evening with a bottle of wine and a book when she is interrupted by someone pounding on the door and asking Tatum to open up. When Eleanor doesn’t open the door, the person outside climbs in a window. And that’s how Eleanor met Carson, Tatum’s non-binary older sibling, covered in glitter. Carson apologizes for barging in, not realizing that Tatum had left town. But the attraction between Eleanor and Carson develops quickly.
During the next week, the attraction between Carson and Eleanor heats up, and Tatum and June’s time in New York is productive. Tatum makes friends with one of Eleanor’s neighbors and finds herself missing her family and feeling guilty for skipping out on the reunion the way she had. And when she gets word that her sister broke her leg, Tatum heads back home on the next flight, putting her burgeoning relationship with June on hold. Back in Illinois, Eleanor decides it’s also time to head home, leaving Carson without saying anything.
As everyone settles back into their lives, they all have to choose between going back to the unhappiness that caused them to make sudden life changes in the first place, or to run after the love they had found when they took chances.
Anywhere You Go is a sweet rom com about upending your life and finding everything you didn’t realize you were missing. I really enjoyed this house-swap story. I thought the characters were well-rounded and interesting, and I loved the two settings. The addition of Dawn in New York added lots of fun, and the story of a secret brother of Tatum and Carson added a lot of texture to the family. I had a great time with Anywhere You Go. It was an amazing trip.
Egalleys for Anywhere You Go were provided by Berkley through NetGalley, with many thanks, but the opinions are mine.

Meh
Format: Kindle
🌟Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
💧Drip-o-Meter: 💦💧
💗Something I Loved: I really enjoyed the whole “two love stories in one” aspect. Marketed as a queer version of “The Holiday,” AYG follows Tatum and Eleanor (alternating every chapter) as they swap houses and ultimately, you guessed it, fall in love, all while discovering the place they truly belong. I definitely had more of an interest in Eleanor and Carson’s relationship than I did in Tatum and June’s, but that’s probably because Carson is my favorite type of character… real and complex but also funny and oh so charismatic. Where the other characters fell flat for me, Carson felt full of personality and depth.
🫤Something I Would Have Changed: Several things sadly. On top of some specific pet peeves (ugh insta-love), there were far too many subplots, most of which felt underdeveloped, and the ending somehow both drug on while also feeling very abrupt.
🥰Favorite Moment: Truthfully, there isn’t one that really stood out to me 🤷🏻♀️
🌶️Spiciest Scene: Chapter 8… Eleanor and Carson’s first EncOUntEr *insert eyebrow wiggle*. Other than this scene, I’d classify the spice in this book as closed door/fade to black… and even though this one is “open,” it’s not overly spicy (but does have some good banter).
📚Standalone vs. Series: Standalone
📖Would I Recommend: I’m indifferent. I didn’t hate it but it was in no way a new favorite for me. I struggled to connect with all of the characters other than Carson and thought there was an overall lack of chemistry, especially between Tatum and June, that made it hard to even care if they ended up together. I don’t necessarily regret reading it but I’m sure I won’t remember a bit of it in a day or two and overall really just don’t have a lot of thoughts about it other than “meh.”
💬Tropes: Found Family, Small Town Romance and Big City Love, Dual Romance, House Swap, Queer (Lesbian x Non-Binary)

Two romances for the price of one!!
Format: Kindle
This was a really interesting book. Usually you only get a single romance, maybe some side character has a little something happen offpage. Not here. You get two complete romances for the price of one. Though the romances are interconnected and somewhat similar. Both Eleanor and Tatum don't believe they should have relationships...though for very different reasons. And they both overcome their fears and move forward with their love interests in similar fashion. Dawn was by far the best side character, and I loved her. I would honestly love to have a story of her finding love again, even at her age. She's just so fun.
Eleanor and Carson are a fun pair. They bring out the fun and playful in her. She brings out the emotional depth in them. They really do make each other better, more complete people. They become close very quickly which ends up scaring Eleanor off.
Tatum and June are adorable. They both obviously like each other, but Tatum is hung up on the idea that nothing will ever work because of how her family is, and June is trying to deal with being the kind of person who needs a relationship to feel safe and normal. They finally start to open up to each other and then mutually freak out a little causing hurt feelings.
There is a third act breakup for each couple. They happen about the same time, and last for the same time in the book and chronologically which is a few months unfortunately. Overall it was a very light, fluffy story that is easy to fall into. There aren't really any truly explicit spicy scenes. There is the barest amount of spice and then it gets glossed over, so not truly fade to black either. I wasn't a fan of the whole 'NYC is so super fabulous and everyone should want to live there' kind of vibe parts of the book gave off, but that's more of a personal hangup of mine than anything else.
