The leaves are broad, smooth, and deep green, growing tightly around thick, self supporting stems without the need for climbing supports.

  • Philodendron 'Congo Green' is a large-leaved tropical plant with a strong, upright growth habit and dense, glossy foliage. Developed as an indoor hybrid, it traces its ancestry to tropical philodendrons native to South America, adapted for growing in warm, humid forest floors. The leaves are broad, smooth, and deep green, growing tightly around thick, self-supporting stems without the need for climbing supports. Indoors, it forms a bushy, architectural shape that gives rooms a bold, structured look.

    Each leaf is oval to slightly elongated, with a natural gloss that highlights its deep green color. The leaves can reach 12 inches or longer when mature, creating a full canopy around the base of the plant. Unlike climbing philodendron species, Congo Green stays compact and vertical, with new leaves emerging tightly curled before unfolding into large, sturdy forms. It usually grows to 2 to 4 feet tall and wide indoors, depending on the pot size and growing conditions.

    Compared to vining philodendrons like Philodendron hederaceum or larger split-leaf types like Philodendron selloum, Congo Green grows in a more upright, self-contained form. It does not trail or climb, making it suitable for filling vertical spaces without sprawling or requiring support structures. Its steady, upright growth and the heavy weight of the stems give it a solid, grounded appearance.

    In addition to its striking foliage, this Philodendron's s foliage helps improve indoor air quality by contributing to natural air exchange processes. It adapts well to indoor life, tolerating varying humidity and lighting conditions once established. Its upright, solid growth habit allows it to fit well into tall, narrow planters, making it an excellent choice as a centerpiece plant or a statement feature in rooms and open spaces.


  • Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its vibrant, lush foliage. It can tolerate lower light but will grow more slowly and may develop smaller leaves.

    Allow the top 2 inches of soil to dry out between waterings, watering thoroughly when needed. Consistent overwatering should be avoided to prevent root rot.

    Thrives in moderate to high humidity levels, ideally around 50–70%. Occasional misting or a nearby humidifier can help in dry indoor environments.

    Grows best at temperatures between 65–85°F. It should be protected from drafts and kept above 60°F to avoid stress.

    Use a rich, well-draining potting mix formulated for tropical plants, typically containing peat, perlite, and orchid bark. Proper aeration encourages strong root development.

    Feed once a month during the growing season with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer. Pause fertilizing during the cooler months when the plant's growth slows naturally.

    Philodendron 'Congo Green' is toxic if ingested by pets and humans. Always place it safely out of reach of children and animals.

Doctor Aphra and Luke Skywalker - An Entertaining Duo!
Format: Paperback
I've greatly enjoyed the various Marvel Star Wars series, but Star Wars: Yoda's Secret War left me a little unsatisfied.  I'm very happy to say that the next installment--Screaming Citadel--righted the course and returned the series to its high standard. Of course, this volume is not just comprised of the Star Wars series.  It also has issues from Doctor Aphra.  Obviously, the two comics crossed over with each other to deliver this story as  whole. Doctor Aphra has an ancient crystal supposedly housing the sentience of a powerful Jedi.  She needs the Queen of the Screaming Citadel to access it for her, and she needs Luke Skywalker to entice the queen into doing so.  You'll have to read the book for the details on using Luke as bait.  Doctor Aphra sells it to Luke as a chance for him to encounter an actual Jedi master, and it's a chance for her to witness a remnant of the ancient past because she is an archaeologist after all, albeit a bit of an immoral one. That's a pretty good premise to achieve what this story is really all about--watching Luke and Aphra interact.  I believe Doctor Aphra is one of the greatest additions to the Star Wars universe in decades.  She first appeared in the Darth Vader series, and she won over the audience so thoroughly that she quickly earned her own title.  Honestly, though Aphra works best when pitted against the pure of heart, or at least those on the side of the Rebels.  She's Aphra, so of course she manipulates Luke, double-crosses him, saves his skin a few times, then cheats him again.  That's just who she is. It's also interesting to see a rebellious streak in Luke as he jaunts off with Aphra without telling Han, Leia, or anyone else for that matter.  We know his dad didn't always follow protocol, so these little deviations are always revealing when Luke is concerned.  It's also fun to see him beginning to realize his power.  This particular story takes place soon after A New Hope, so Luke has not yet begun to completely understand what he has at his disposal--though this book does depict Luke having some pretty cool moments with his burgeoning abilities. We also have quite a bit of Han, Leia, and another invaluable addition to the mythology named Sana Starros.  All three get their moment to shine as Han finds more and more of the hero within, Leia further establishes herself as the capable leader she is, and Sana Starros slowly reveals more and more of her past to the reader.  Guess what?  Not only does she have deep connections to Han Solo, but it's heavily hinted that she is also tied to Doctor Aphra as well.  The specifics may surprise you. And, as always, Aphra's versions of C3PO and R2D2 steal the show.  They are named 0-0-0 and BT-1.  They are basically the murderous, demented, evil version of our favorite droids, and they are forever a delight. The story of Screaming Citadel itself is entertaining.  The art is very pleasing to the eye and keeps the plot moving at a quick pace.  At times the faces of the characters based off of real life actors look almost photo realistic, which is sometimes jarring when the rest of the panel does not look so true to life.  Of course, the best quality of the book is simply seeing all of these characters play off of each other.  It's refreshing to have such rounded, charismatic new characters as Aphra, Sana, Triple-Zero, and Bee-Tee 1 making waves with our legendary favorites.
