Fast-growing and easy to care for, Philodendron Congo is very long-lived and can tolerate temperature extremes and humidity. Congo has a free-branching habit and large, glossy, dark green leaves that sit upright. It's equally at home in bright, shaded positions either indoors or in protected outdoor positions. 'Congo' doesn't produce a vine, grows to 1.5m, and has a width of 70cm. Easily creates a tropical atmosphere and is a popular office potted plant choice.
