About Philodendron 'Imperial Red'
Philodendrons grow aerial roots that grip the bark of trees, allowing them to grow over 20 feet tall! Their leaves change shape as they climb and can grow larger than a dinner plate. Fossils show Philodendrons growing as far back as 30 million years ago when South America was still connected to Antarctica! ❄️

Got 2 new plants today #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict

4 all pink leaves on PPP. Would you chop or hope for new growth at previous chop point? I chopped it about a month ago due to the leaves not unfurling. The leaves unfurl now, they're just all pink😂😅 #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #Philodendron #PinkPrincessPhilodendron #PinkPlantsofGreg #NewGrowth

They arrived in perfect condition. My heart just 💕 swelled with joy. I posted his Etsy shop above. The blooming (smells like heaven) #sansevieriablackcoral has sooo many new babies and the pot is about to bust open from the new growth. #happywifehappylife

New leaf not opening and going limp? This new leaf on my large #philodendronimperialred has been growing for nearly a month now, and it just keeps looking sadder and limper... I haven't changed much with its situation, it's in a self-watering planter so gets very even water, and it lives under the grow lights in my room which is more light than it used to get from behind the folding screen. One of the leaves snapped off recently from age and the plant might have gotten stressed from that, but that's all that I can think of that changed. What could be causing this and/or what's wrong with it?
