Philodendron Sun Red Care

Philodendron Sun Red is an extraordinary tropical plant, known for its unique and vibrant leaves. This Philodendron is a special hybrid, and although the grower calls it ‘Sun Red’, we have not been able to identify the exact confirmed name. We do know this Philodendron is different than Prince of Orange or Red Congo.

Philodendron Sun Red

The Philodendron Sun Red is a beautiful and relatively easy-to-care-for houseplant. Here’s a breakdown of its care requirements:

Light:

  • Bright, indirect light is ideal. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.
  • The plant can tolerate medium light, but its vibrant colors will be more pronounced in brighter conditions.

Watering:

  • Allow the top 1-2 inches of soil to dry out between waterings.
  • Overwatering can lead to root rot, so ensure proper drainage.
  • Water more frequently during the growing season (spring and summer) and reduce watering in autumn and winter.

Humidity:

  • Philodendrons thrive in moderate to high humidity (50-60%).
  • You can increase humidity by misting the plant regularly, placing it near a humidifier, or using a pebble tray.

Temperature:

  • Ideal temperatures range from 18-26°C (65-80°F).
  • Avoid cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.

Fertilizing:

  • Feed the plant with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season.
  • Avoid fertilizing in autumn and winter.

Repotting:

  • Repot the Philodendron Sun Red every 1-2 years, or when it outgrows its current pot.

Key Considerations:

  • Color changes: One of the most interesting aspects of the Philodendron ‘Sun Red’ is that its leaves change color as they mature. Young leaves start out bright red, then transition to burgundy, and eventually to a deep, red-tinged green.
  • Toxicity: Philodendrons are toxic to pets if ingested, so keep them out of reach of animals.

By following these care tips, you can help your Philodendron ‘Sun Red’ thrive and enjoy its beautiful foliage.
