Philodendron Pink Princess
Philodendron Erubescens Pink Princess
The plant, by the plant
Play the Pink Princess Roulette. I'm the most famous gamble in the plant world: my variegation is a genetic chimera - some of my cells simply never learned to make chlorophyll - so every new leaf spins the wheel between deep burgundy-green and that bubblegum pink the internet loses its mind over.
Full transparency (it's kind of our thing): current stock is low-variegation. That's the honest starting hand - and exactly why the first pink flash feels like winning. I can only ever be propagated from cuttings, never seed, which keeps my kind rare by nature.
Bright, indirect light please - my pink patches don't photosynthesise AND sunburn easily, the divas. Water when my topsoil dries.
What you'll get (no surprises):
- Medium - 140mm nursery pot, approx 10-20cm
- Large - 200mm nursery pot, an established plant
Pets: royalty is not for eating - toxic if chewed.
Protect the investment with the Leaf Shine & Plant Food Duo and throne me in a Jardin Terrazzo Pot in Pink - obviously.
🌱 One tree planted with every order.

Care tips
Water sparingly and allow soil to dry out in between waterings. Prefers to be homed in a bright room with some indirect light. Remember, the more pink variegation the leaf has, the more sensitive it is to bright sunlight. Fertilise in warmer months.
Feeding
To get the best out of your indoor plants, you will need to feed them some food. The Good Plant Co Indoor Plant Food will provide all the nutrients they need to grow more leaves and help them stay strong. When the plant is actively growing during the warmer months, it needs a bit more food and water. During the slow growing season (cooler winter months) your plant doesn’t eat or drink as much (no extra winter layer of fat for these babies). Sometimes it’s ok to be a helicopter parent – respond to your plant’s needs. To keep the dust off your beautiful indoor plant leaves use The Good Plant Co Leaf Shine. Moral of the story, if it is growing new leaves then it will need more water and food!
