🌿 Philodendron ‘Red Anderson’ Care Guide

The Philodendron ‘Red Anderson’ is a hybrid with a luxurious twist — its new leaves unfurl in shades of coppery red and blush pink before maturing into deep green with a soft sheen. Elegant and bold, it’s a plant that brings both warmth and sophistication to any tropical collection.

☀️ Light

• Thrives in bright, indirect light to keep its red tones vivid

• Can tolerate medium light but may lose colour intensity

• Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch young leaves

💧 Water

• Keep soil lightly moist, but not soggy

• Water when the top 2–3 cm feel dry

• Loves a chunky, airy mix — bark, coco coir, and perlite help prevent root rot

🌫️ Humidity

• Prefers medium to high humidity (60%+) for lush, colourful growth

• Mist occasionally or use a humidifier to keep leaves supple

• Dry air may cause crispy edges or dull colour

🍽️ Feeding

• Feed every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer with a balanced fertilizer

• Pause feeding in autumn and winter

🌱 Quick Tips

• Rotate regularly for balanced, upright growth

• Wipe leaves gently to maintain their natural sheen

• Not pet-safe — keep away from cats and dogs
