Philodendron Prince of Orange
Philodendron Prince of Orange is a colorful tropical houseplant prized for its constantly changing foliage. New leaves emerge in brilliant shades of orange, copper, or warm apricot before gradually transitioning through bronze and yellow-green and eventually maturing to deeper green. Because leaves mature at different times, a healthy plant can display several colors at once, creating a bright layered effect.
The proper cultivar name is Philodendron ‘Prince of Orange’. It is a cultivated hybrid rather than a naturally occurring species and belongs to the group of compact, self-heading Philodendrons. Unlike vining Philodendrons, Prince of Orange grows from a central base and forms a dense, upright rosette of foliage.
Care
Philodendron Prince of Orange does best in bright, indirect light. Good light helps encourage vibrant orange coloration in new growth, while lower light can result in greener foliage and slower growth. Avoid prolonged intense direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
Water when the top 1–2 inches of the potting mix feel dry, then water thoroughly and allow excess water to drain. Avoid keeping the soil constantly wet, as Philodendrons are susceptible to root problems when grown in poorly drained conditions.
Use a chunky, airy, and well-draining aroid mix. Orchid bark, coco chips or coir, perlite, pumice, and a small amount of quality potting mix provide a good combination of drainage, moisture retention, and airflow around the roots.
Prince of Orange prefers warm temperatures and moderate to high humidity. Typical household humidity is generally suitable, although additional humidity can help support larger, healthier foliage. Protect the plant from cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.
This Philodendron has a compact, self-heading growth habit and does not require a moss pole or climbing support. New leaves emerge from the center of the plant while older foliage gradually spreads outward, creating a full rosette. Remove damaged or aging leaves at the base as needed, but otherwise very little pruning is required.
Pet Safety
Philodendron Prince of Orange is toxic to cats and dogs if chewed or ingested. Like other Philodendrons, it contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals that can cause irritation of the mouth, tongue, and throat, along with drooling, vomiting, or difficulty swallowing. Keep it out of reach of pets and small children.
