About Pink Princess Philodendron
The Pink Princess Philodendron has developed a cult following in recent years 💕. Known for its famed pink leaves, mature specimens of this plant have sold for thousands of dollars. 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! ❄️

How to fertilize Pink Princess Philodendron
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Pink Princess Philodendron after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

A bittersweet moment, Hera was attacked by #thrips 🥺🥺 but we gave her a shower and cut off the rotting root. She’s isolated and propping in some #sphagnummoss & #perlite. I just hope I can save her 😭😭😭😭 #PestsAndPlants #plantcare #PinkPrincessPhilodendron #PhilodendronPinkPrincess

It was doing so good I'm pretty sure it's a lighting issue. I do know it needs lots of indirect sunlight and I thought that's what I was giving it, but I guess I need to move my grow lights farther away. What do you guys think?Is this a lighting issue. This is a pink princess philadendron I put a photo from last week and one from 2 day...

My favorite plant! It’s so beautiful and unique!

Super rewarding plant to grow & easy to propagate in water! I’ve also had great success with them in leca. Too much light will burn their leafs. Not super dramatic but will let you know when thirsty. My all time favorite plant!

Love love love. Pretty easy to care for! Just like other philodendrons.

If you love pink, you’ll love philo. Pink princess! They thrive in high humidity & I’ve found they also do well in leca. When given a pole, they’ll put off larger leaves. They do brown / not put out a lot of pink if in too bright of light.

Very beautiful low color Philodendron Pink Princess from American Plant Exchange (more light will give it more color they say). Best price available for a great plant. Shop around for the best plant for you! These babies don’t come cheap. And they prefer distilled water and high humidity. If you’re getting this Pink Princess do yourself and it a favor and get a distiller and a levoit humidifier. They’ll help you give her the proper care!

I actually wish I didn't spend so much money on this plant. It's not my favorite.

This is the really expensive plant (that I sometimes regret buying). She is very low maintenance, but she is fragile. Make sure she gets a proper amount of moisture and she doesn’t get touched too much. She likes sunlight, but not right next to the window.
