Philodendron 'Pink Princess'

🔥🌸 Philodendron ‘Pink Princess’ (fil-oh-DEN-dron PINK PRIN-cess) 🌸🔥

Also known as: Blushing Philodendron, Pink Variegated Philodendron

This collector’s favorite dazzles with deep green to nearly black leaves splashed and streaked with bubblegum-pink variegation. Each leaf is a surprise — sometimes bold blocks of pink, other times delicate freckles — making every plant one-of-a-kind. A climbing philodendron, it develops larger, more dramatic foliage when given support like a moss pole.

💡 Care Tips:

☀️ Light – Bright, indirect light keeps pink variegation vibrant. Too little light causes fading or reversion to green, while too much direct sun may scorch the leaves.
💧 Water – Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil feel dry. Prefers evenly moist but well-draining soil. Avoid sogginess to prevent root rot.
🌡️ Humidity – Thrives in moderate to high humidity (60%+). Dry air may cause brown leaf edges. Ideal temps: 65–85°F (18–29°C).
🌱 Growth – Moderate grower. Climbs with aerial roots and benefits from support. Prune to encourage bushiness and manage variegation balance.

📊 Difficulty: Intermediate (not overly fussy, but requires careful light and watering to maintain its prized pink).

🐾 Pet Safety: Toxic if ingested. Contains calcium oxalate crystals that can cause irritation of the mouth, throat, and stomach. All pets are unique and reactions may vary in symptoms and severity.

🌟 Collector’s Tip:
To preserve strong pink coloration, give plenty of bright, indirect light. Pruning back stems that revert to solid green helps encourage balanced variegation. For maximum impact, train your Pink Princess up a moss pole for larger leaves and more dramatic pink.
