Philodendron erubescens Red Emerald Care & Info Guide
Horty Hints
Finished with the fading? This plant likes lots of bright indirect sunlight to grow and maintain its colouring. If you notice the red colour on its leaves start to dull, move to a brighter location.
Stop the spotting! It is normal for this plant to develop yellow spots on its leaves when it acclimatises to its new location, however, if full leaf yellowing occurs, it’s a watering issue.
Occasional wiping of leaves with a damp cloth to remove dust will keep your plant looking fresh and feeling fine.
Light
This Philodendron is happy in a shaded area but best in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight as this will scorch the leaves.
Watering
Keep the soil of your Red Emerald moist but allow the top of the soil to dry out slightly before re-watering. This plant is drought tolerant.
Temperature
Prefers average to warm household temperatures from 18-28°C and can handle as low as 12°C for short periods. Avoid cold draughts.
Humidity
The Red Emerald will do fine in normal home humidity but thrives in more humid environments. Consider misting occasionally for best results.
