Philodendron melanochrysum

Gorgeous velvety texture to the leaves and a beautiful orange glow when they catch the light. Didn’t expect it to be as big or well established as it was! Unfortunately the newest leaf was damaged when it arrived but I think this was more to do with the courier as a new shoot has already begun to emerge as it has quickly acclimatised.

Gorgeous healthy plant. Took a while to get here but it was ordered during Black Friday and the weather was quite bad. The HOK team were very helpful throughout especially as one of my initial ordered items was unavailable.

An ok specimen of a plant 2 stars is for the delivery and time taken as seems to be an ever increasing problem with hok no labels to tell what the plants are and yellowing poor leaves on the plant, yes its only one but it spoils the excitement of opening the box.

honestly obsessed... gorgeous velvety texture on the leaves... the plant was delivered safely, however it has some injuries, possibly from transit, but it's not really bad injury, just a leaf getting folded/creased, which is always a risk when shipping plant and also it happened because the leaves were quite large

I’ve always loved the leaves

I’ve always loved the leaves on the melanochrysum so to have a ‘giant form’ ticks a box on my wish list.

Plant arrived well packaged and healthy as always. Highly recommended
