Philodendron Melanochrysum, also known as Black Gold Philodendron, is a rare climbing Aroid. It has long, heart-shaped velvet leaves of dark greenish-black that appear to be speckled with gold, and light green to white veining. As they grows, their vines will search for something to climb. A moss pole works very well, providing vertical support and a medium for the aerial roots to attach themselves to.
