Philodendron ‘Summer Glory’ - frunzis tropical spectaculos

Philodendron ‘Summer Glory’ is a rare hybrid, resulting from the crossbreeding of Philodendron gloriosum and Philodendron melanochrysum. It inherits from gloriosum the large shape and prominent leaf veins, and from melanochrysum the velvety texture and intense reflections. The result is a spectacular plant, with large heart-shaped leaves, of intense green color, which acquire bronze-golden shades when emerging and then become deep green with contrasting veins.
