Philodendron Imperial Red

A lush, decorative foliage plant with large, oval, leathery leaves. Young leaves are a bright red, maturing to burgundy red-purple and ultimately dark glossy green. Philodendron Imperial Red has a compact, bushy habit.

A great low maintenance option and shade tolerant into the bargain. Ideal for adding interest and air-purifying benefits to the home or office.

This Philodendron is happy in a shaded area but best in bright, indirect light.

Avoid direct sunlight as this will scorch the leaves.

Keep the soil of your Imperial Red moist but allow the top of the soil to dry-out slightly before re-watering. This plant is drought tolerant.

The Imperial Red will do fine in normal home humidity, but thrives in more humid environments. Consider misting occasionally for best results.

A moderate to fast-growing plant, the Imperial Red typically reaches an ultimate height of around 90 to 120cm indoors.

Blozem Hints🪴

🌿Finished with the fading? This plant likes lots of bright indirect sunlight to grow and maintain its colouring. If you notice the red colour on its leaves start to dull, move to a brighter location.

🌿Stop the spotting! It is normal for this plant to develop yellow spots on its leaves when it acclimatises to its new location, however If full leaf yellowing occurs, it’s a watering issue.

🌿Occasional wiping of leaves with a damp cloth to remove dust will keep your plant looking fresh and feeling fine.
