Description

  • The Philodendron ‘Cherry Red’ is a striking, low-maintenance plant with vibrant red stems and new leaves that mature to a deep green. Proper care ensures its healthy growth and vivid colors. Here’s a guide:

1. Light Requirements:

  • Bright, indirect light: Prefers bright but indirect sunlight. Avoid direct sunlight as it can scorch the leaves.
  • Can tolerate low light but growth may slow, and colors might be less vibrant.

2. Watering:

  • Consistent moisture: Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil feel dry.
  • Avoid overwatering as it can lead to root rot. Ensure the pot has drainage holes.

3. Humidity:

  • Thrives in moderate to high humidity (50%-70%).
  • Use a humidifier or place a tray of water and pebbles near the plant for added moisture.

4. Temperature:

  • Optimal range: 65°F to 85°F (18°C to 29°C).
  • Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below 55°F (13°C).

5. Soil:

  • Use a well-draining, airy potting mix.
  • A mix of peat, perlite, and orchid bark works well.

6. Fertilizer:

  • Feed with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).
  • Reduce feeding during fall and winter when growth slows.

7. Pruning:

  • Prune occasionally to remove dead or yellowing leaves.
  • Pinch back stems to encourage bushier growth.

8. Repotting:

  • Repot every 1-2 years or when roots outgrow the pot.
  • Choose a pot that’s 1-2 inches larger in diameter.

9. Pests and Diseases:

  • Watch for common pests like spider mites, mealybugs, and aphids.
  • Keep leaves clean by wiping them with a damp cloth.

10. Toxicity:

  • Philodendron ‘Cherry Red’ is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. Keep it out of reach of children and animals.
