    Search black gold philodendron. That may be it, I think.

      I think black gold is the common name for melanochrysum and this is def not a melano. It'd have darker leaves

    I think it may be a philodendron gloriosum, google tends to have more accurate results than planta i’ve noticed!

    I second gloriosum. Black gold has less elongated leaves and more velvet.

    I'm fairly certain it's gloriosum. I have one slightly smaller and looks almost identical to yours.

    I actually think this is a Glorious, and not a gloriosum. Because the leaves are so narrow top to bottom. And the fact it seems to be trying to vine. As gloriosum are terrestrial crawler

      Glorious leaf. Cross between a Gloriosum and the Melanochrysum (black gold, Phil mentioned)

      Your Gloriosum is so pretty. I recently got a baby one. Any tips to take care of it? Thank

      I just water him regularly, fertilize every 2-3 weeks, chunky soil, and grow light.
