Black Gold Philodendron (Philodendron melanochrysum)

Black Gold Philodendron is a dramatic climbing houseplant prized for its velvety, dark foliage that looks instantly high-end. It is a great choice if you want a statement plant that feels lush and architectural, especially when trained up a pole. With bright, indirect light and steady care, it rewards you with larger leaves and stronger color over time. If you want a collector-style philodendron that still fits into an approachable routine, Black Gold Philodendron is a standout.

Distinctive Features

This philodendron is known for elongated, heart-shaped leaves with a rich, velvet texture and prominent lighter veining that creates a glowing contrast against the dark surface. As a climber, it produces larger, more impressive foliage when given a moss pole or support and encouraged to grow upward. Mature leaves can become quite large indoors under good conditions, creating a bold vertical display. The combination of velvety texture, deep color, and dramatic scale makes it one of the most striking foliage plants for indoor collections.

Growing Conditions

  • Sun: Bright, indirect light is ideal, and avoid harsh direct sun that can scorch leaves.
  • Soil: Airy, well-drained aroid mix that holds some moisture but never stays soggy.
  • Water: Water when the top 1 to 2 inches of soil dry, and do not let the pot sit in water.
  • Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity supports best leaf size and velvet texture, with average home humidity acceptable.
  • Growth Habit: Climbing vine that benefits from a support pole for larger leaves and a fuller vertical form.

Ideal Uses

  • Focal Point: Train up a moss pole to create a tall, dramatic centerpiece with velvety foliage.
  • Bright Room Corner: Place in a bright corner to add depth, contrast, and a lush tropical feel.
  • Plant Stands: Set on a stand so leaf texture and veining are visible at eye level.
  • Collector Displays: Pair with other aroids to build a layered indoor jungle with contrasting leaf finishes.

Low Maintenance Care

  • Watering: Keep evenly moist but not wet, and allow a partial dry-down between waterings.
  • Support: Provide a moss pole and secure stems, keeping the pole lightly moist if you want faster climbing.
  • Feeding: Feed monthly in spring and summer with a balanced houseplant fertilizer at a moderate strength.
  • Leaf Care: Dust gently with a soft cloth and avoid harsh wiping that can damage velvety leaves.

Why Choose Black Gold Philodendron?

  • Velvety Dark Leaves: Rich texture and deep color create a premium, dramatic look indoors.
  • Gold Veining Contrast: Prominent veins add glow and definition across each leaf.
  • Climbing Statement: Trained growth on a pole produces larger leaves and a stronger vertical display.
  • Collector Appeal: A standout aroid that elevates any indoor plant collection.

Black Gold Philodendron is a great choice when you want a climbing plant with serious visual impact. Give it bright, indirect light, an airy mix, and steady moisture with good drainage, and it will reward you with larger, more dramatic leaves over time. With a support pole and consistent care, it becomes a lasting focal plant that transforms the feel of a room.

The best chew ever for a strong chewer
Color: Dogwood (Brown), Size: Large (Pack of 1)
We have a 77lb goldendoodle who loves these. We’re lucky because he doesn’t chew on anything other than his toys, but when he starts on this…he really goes at it. It’s healthy, (not synthetic), doesn’t break apart, (no pieces to worry about him swallowing), it just perfect for him. The noise may get on your nerves but it’s a small price to pay to keep him from chewing on your furniture, shoes, or anything else a mischievous dog can find.

Little pieces break off
Color: Dogwood (Brown), Size: Large (Pack of 1)
My dog is obsessed with this. It does last a long time even given her strong chewing capabilities. I wish it was a little bigger. The main reason I rated it so low is when my dog is chewing on this it breaks off a little plastic peice and sometimes it hits the back of her throat making her cough so you have to supervise with this.

Great for aggressive chewers
Color: Dogwood (Brown), Size: Large (Pack of 1)
My dog is an aggressive chewer so they are great for her. I would love to have one a bit thinner so it could fit in a holder so it is easier for her to hold while eating. This keeps her busy and is long lasting. I have purchased these multiple times.

Awsome puppy toy
This toy is great. My baby destroys every stuffed toy we get her. Except this one and one other from the same manufacturer. She loves them so much and is constantly playing with them. No rips or holes at all. I’d give 10 stars if I could!

Durable Stuffed Toys for a Chewer
I have 2 two year old medium size mixed dogs (Paisan and Barley) Barley is a chewer and has destroyed every stuffed toy we've bought within a couple days until this sloth and racoon. I purchased the sloth almost a month ago and can't believe it's still in one piece! They love the sloth and the two of them play tug of war with it everyday. It's Barley's favorite toy to chew on and no longer has a face or squeaker (which she removed through the face) and the hands and feet have taken a beating but the rest of it has held up incredibly well due to the strong stitching. We've had the racoon for almost 3 months but for some reason neither of my dogs pays much attention to it. The ears have been chewed off but that's it. I'm so pleased to finally find toys that can hold up to Barley! They are more expensive than other stuffed toys but so much more durable and worth every penny! I'm sticking with this brand!
