| Content | Roses are easily one of the most popular and widely cultivated groups of flowering plants. Numerous different cultivars have been produced over the last two centuries, although roses have been grown for millennia before their popularity bloomed. Renowned for their flowers and beauty, they are also loved for other reasons such as their fruit. The rose hip can be made into an old fashioned jam. Roses range in size and variety from your standard and bush roses to climbers and weeping varieties. Amongst all their beautiful colours, varieties and fragrances there is bound to be the perfect rose out there for your garden. For more information on selecting and growing roses, visit our Rose Factsheet. | Black Cardinal is best grown in well-drained, moist soil in part shade. Too much light or too little moisture can cause the leaves to become pale and brown. Philodendrons also do not like overly wet or cold soils. Avoid alkaline soil.
Black Cardinal philodendron is a fantastic understory plant in shady gardens in warm, frost-free regions. It is also an excellent houseplant in bright, warm indoor spaces. | | | Select from Mini Mondo Grass, Tall Mondo Grass or Bongo Borders® Liriope & throw away your shears.
