Imperial Red Philodendron is a stunning tropical plant that is highly sought after for its unique and vibrant foliage. This hybrid philodendron cultivar has large, glossy leaves that start out dark reddish-purple and gradually fade to a rich dark green, often with streaks of red or purple.
Use a well-drained, porous potting mix rich in organic matter. A combination of peat moss, perlite and bark chips works well.
