Philodendron Red Sun is a stunning tropical aroid celebrated for its large, glossy leaves that emerge in brilliant shades of red and copper before transitioning to a rich, deep green. A fast-grower with bold presence, it brings instant drama to any indoor space and is a standout in any rare plant collection.

Care Guide

• Light: Bright indirect light. More light encourages stronger red coloration on new growth.
• Water: Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil are dry. Well-draining soil is essential — avoid waterlogging.
• Humidity: Prefers 50–70% humidity. A humidifier or pebble tray helps in drier environments.
• Temperature: 65–85°F (18–29°C). Protect from cold drafts and temperature fluctuations.
• Soil: Chunky, well-aerated aroid mix (perlite, orchid bark, coco coir).
• Fertilizer: Balanced liquid fertilizer every 2–4 weeks during spring and summer.
• Potting: Repot every 1–2 years or when roots begin to escape the drainage holes.

A collector favorite for its vivid new-leaf color and easy-going nature. Great for beginners and seasoned aroid enthusiasts alike.
