Philodendron Micans 'Pink Ferrari'
$40.00
A collector's cultivar of rare distinction, the Philodendron micans 'Pink Ferrari' commands attention with its velvety, iridescent foliage that shifts between deep emerald and warm blush tones depending on the light. New growth emerges in soft, saturated pinks before maturing into a rich, bronzed green — each leaf a study in chromatic depth. The signature velvet texture of the micans species is fully present here, catching light with a quiet luminosity that elevates any interior.
A trailing or climbing aroid of exceptional character, 'Pink Ferrari' is as well-suited to a moss pole as it is to a hanging planter. Rare, slow to propagate, and highly sought after — this is a plant for the serious collector.
Care Guide
- Light: Bright, indirect light preserves the pink coloration in new growth. Avoid direct sun, which scorches the delicate velvet surface. Lower light is tolerated but reduces vibrancy.
- Water: Water thoroughly when the top 1–2 inches of soil are dry. Ensure excellent drainage — this cultivar is sensitive to root rot. Reduce frequency in winter.
- Humidity: Thrives at 60–80% humidity. A humidifier or pebble tray is recommended; avoid misting directly on the velvet leaves.
- Temperature: Prefers 65–85°F (18–29°C). Keep away from cold drafts and heating vents.
- Soil: A well-draining, chunky aroid mix — perlite, orchid bark, and coco coir — is ideal.
- Fertilizer: Feed monthly during the growing season (spring–summer) with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength.
- Toxicity: Toxic to pets and humans if ingested. Keep out of reach of children and animals.
