The classic \u003ci data-path-to-node=\"3\" data-index-in-node=\"130\"\u003ePhilodendron gloriosum\u003c\/i\u003e has long won hearts with its huge, heart-shaped leaves that have a royal, velvety texture. However, this 'Snow Leopard' variation is an exceptional and extremely rare collector’s plant – each of its soft, velvety leaves is adorned with a unique, uneven, and breathtaking cream-white, light green, and silvery spotted pattern that literally resembles a snow leopard’s fur. Unlike many other philodendrons, this species is a \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"3\" data-index-in-node=\"587\"\u003ecreeping plant\u003c\/b\u003e (its stem or rhizome grows horizontally along the soil surface rather than climbing upwards), so over time it will form a low but incredibly impressive and wide grand carpet of leaves.
