Aroid Market Philodendron Dark Lord

This plant is classified as intermediate care. While it isn't overly demanding, it requires a consistent, warm environment and careful attention to watering, making it better suited for those who have some experience with tropical aroids.

To keep that signature deep, moody foliage, place your Dark Lord in bright, indirect light. Too little light will cause the leaves to lose their intense color and potentially stunt growth, while direct sun can scorch the delicate foliage.

The best approach is to let the top inch or two of soil dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering is the most common issue with this variety, so ensure your pot has excellent drainage and never let the plant sit in standing water.

No, the Philodendron Dark Lord is not pet-friendly. Like many other philodendrons, it contains calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause irritation or discomfort if ingested by pets.

You will receive a fully rooted, established specimen standing between 6 and 8 inches tall. Because it is already rooted, it will acclimate to your home environment much faster than a cutting, though you should still give it a few days of gentle, stable conditions after unboxing.
