Philodendron 'Prince of Orange'

🔥🧡 Philodendron ‘Prince of Orange’ (fil-oh-DEN-dron PRINS of OR-anj) 🧡🔥

Also known as: Prince of Orange Philodendron

This self-heading hybrid philodendron earns its crown with leaves that emerge in brilliant shades of orange, then mature through hues of copper, chartreuse, and deep green. Unlike vining philodendrons, Prince of Orange grows in a dense, upright rosette, making it a compact yet dazzling statement plant. Each new flush of leaves adds a fiery pop of color to your indoor jungle.

💡 Care Tips:

☀️ Light – Bright, indirect light keeps colors vivid. Tolerates medium light but leaves may mature to green faster. Avoid harsh direct sun, which can scorch new growth.
💧 Water – Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil are dry. Prefers evenly moist, well-draining soil. Do not let sit in soggy conditions.
🌡️ Humidity – Thrives in moderate to high humidity (50%+). Adapts to average household humidity but grows more lush with added moisture. Ideal temps: 65–85°F (18–29°C).
🌱 Growth – Upright, clumping growth habit. Typically grows 1–2 feet tall indoors, with colorful new leaves produced frequently in good conditions.

📊 Difficulty: Easy to Intermediate (forgiving, but best color requires bright indirect light and steady care).

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

🌟 Collector’s Tip:
For the brightest display, place near a window with filtered light and fertilize lightly during the growing season. Rotate regularly so the rosette grows evenly and each new leaf has space to shine.
