Philodendron erubescens ‘Pink Princess’ (wk10-D) – Legacy

This is the top cut of the very Pink Princess that started Rare Plant Fairy – a piece of RPF history!

Philodendron erubescens Pink Princess is a highly sought-after hybrid known for its dramatic, glossy leaves that feature striking splashes or sectoral patches of pink against a deep green base. Each leaf displays unique patterning, ranging from subtle flecks to broad sections of vibrant pink, creating a bold, eye-catching contrast. New growth emerges with pink petioles and stems, adding to its visual appeal, while mature leaves maintain the distinctive pink and green contrast. The plant has an upright, vining habit, producing successive leaves that grow larger over time and can climb when given support.

This cultivar thrives in bright, indirect light to maintain vibrant variegation without leaf burn. It prefers evenly moist, well-draining soil with good aeration and benefits from warm, stable temperatures and moderate to high humidity. Providing a moss pole or trellis encourages climbing, allowing the foliage to develop fully and display its signature variegated pattern.
