Philodendron 'Sun Red'

Philodendron 'Sun Red' is a compact, colour-changing Philodendron with new leaves that open in red, coppery red or orange-red tones before maturing toward darker green. A growing plant can show fresh red growth near the centre, warmer transitional leaves and older green leaves around the outside.

This cultivar has a self-heading habit, forming clustered leaves from a short central stem. Each new leaf changes from red at emergence through warmer transitional tones, then darker and greener once the blade has hardened.

Red new leaves on a compact Philodendron

  • Growth habit: A self-heading Philodendron with clustered leaves and a short central stem.
  • Leaf colour: New growth opens red to copper-red, then matures through warmer tones toward green.
  • Leaf shape: Leaves are broad, smooth and lightly glossy, with enough firmness to hold a tidy outline.
  • Indoor size: Its short-stemmed habit keeps the plant dense, balanced and suited to pot culture.

How Philodendron 'Sun Red' changes colour

Philodendron 'Sun Red' shows its richest colour during active growth. The youngest leaves carry the strongest warm red tones, then deepen gradually as the leaf hardens. A regular sequence of new leaves keeps several colour stages visible on the plant at once.

The central growth point should stay open to light and airflow. If the plant is crowded between taller plants, new leaves may lean or expand unevenly. Rotate the pot regularly and remove dry sheaths once they release naturally.

Care for short-stemmed growth

  • Light: Place in bright indirect light. Gentle morning or late-day sun can be tolerated after acclimation, but harsh direct sun can scorch the leaf surface.
  • Watering: Water when the top 3–5 cm of substrate has dried. Let the root ball rehydrate evenly, then allow air back into the mix before watering again.
  • Substrate: Use a chunky aroid mix with good drainage and air space. Dense, fine substrate keeps the lower roots too wet and increases yellowing risk.
  • Humidity: Moderate humidity supports smoother leaf unfurling. A humidifier, grouped plants or a cabinet can help if new leaves stick or tear while opening.
  • Temperature: Keep warm, ideally 18–27 °C. Growth slows in cool conditions, especially if the substrate is also wet.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth. Small, regular feeding is safer than strong doses, which can stress compact root systems.
  • Pot choice: Use a pot with drainage and enough weight to keep the plant balanced. Avoid jumping to a much larger pot while the root system is still small.
  • Leaf cleaning: Wipe dust from older leaves gently. Clean leaves receive light more evenly and make pest checks easier.

Growth problems to check early

  • Pale or weak new leaves: Check light level and nutrient supply. Move the plant into brighter indirect light and resume light feeding during active growth.
  • Yellow leaves near the base: Check for wet substrate, poor drainage or an oversized pot. Let the mix dry slightly deeper before the next watering.
  • Stuck new leaves: Check humidity, airflow and root moisture. Dry air combined with irregular watering can make the emerging leaf catch inside the sheath.
  • Brown tips: Look for drying between waterings, fertiliser build-up or cold stress. Flush the substrate if salts have built up.
  • Marked new growth: Inspect the newest leaves first for thrips or mites, because soft red tissue shows damage quickly.

Pet safety for Philodendron 'Sun Red'

Philodendron 'Sun Red' should be kept away from pets and small children. Like other Philodendron, it can contain insoluble calcium oxalate crystals that may irritate the mouth and digestive tract if chewed or swallowed. Wash your hands after cutting or removing damaged leaves.

Botanical background

Philodendron belongs to the Araceae family and is native as a genus to tropical parts of the Americas. The genus name combines Greek roots commonly translated as “love” and “tree”, reflecting the tree-associated growth of many species.

Philodendron 'Sun Red' grows as a dense self-heading plant with red to coppery new leaves that mature toward green.

Works great, smells good, and does not leave you feeling slimy or greasy.
Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
This stuff is the best for men who do not like feeling greasy when they use lotion. It works good for healing and preventing cracking and drying of skin, but it may have to be applied multiple times a day for people with very dry skin.

Great product at a great price
Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
Great price for a product that I have used and liked for years. Lotion dries quickly and has nice masculine scent. In addition to moisturizing my hands, I also use it for aftershave lotion on my face.

Lot of Waste but Great Lotion
Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3), Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
I have eczema and have tried dozens of lotions, and this one works great for me. The reason I have settled on this one is that it works great for my skin, not greasy, and I like the smell, not being too strong and feminine like most lotions. My only complaint is that there is a ton of leftover lotion in the bottom that the pump can't reach. I have the cut the bottle open each time so I don't waste it.

Best lotion I can find
Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
Lubriderm discontinued the perfect men’s 3-in-1 lotion and it’s no longer available. After trying multiple substitutions, I found this. Mind you, I have scent and skin issues and NORMALLY buy unscented. I was concerned that this would cause issues and quite the opposite happened. I’ve discovered it works BETTER than the previously mention “perfect product” and though it is scented, the scent is pleasurable and super quick to fade, not at all overpowering and truly quite enjoyable. A fresh boost without causing me ANY problems. I am so pleased with this Vaseline product that I’m actually better now about keeping my skin hydrated, and, find myself humming while dressing post shower and application (I apply at the conclusion of my shower while still in the shower. That’s new - I hadn’t noticed or thought about it until my spouse asked me “why the good mood in the mornings lately.” Subconscious I guess but it’s a great way to start long days feeling clean and confident, rather than just washed, rinsed and repeat.
