In our nursery we have various forms of one plant. Plants are living beings and so they are sometimes different. Variations in color and size are therefore possible.

The pictures shown with our products are sample pictures. These photos give a true picture of what the plant may look like when properly cared for. The specifications are leading for the plant received. Please read the characteristics carefully before ordering.

What are sample images?

We have an extremely large, extensive assortment with thousands of plants. In addition, because specific plants change in shape, color and size on a weekly basis, it is impossible for our small team to capture all specific plants. Each plant grows in a unique way, so it is perfectly normal that there may be differences in color, shape and size.

But because we do want to communicate clearly to you what to expect with a product, we have specifications for each plant that will give you a clear picture of what to expect.

It is therefore rare that you will receive the exact plant shown in the picture. If this is the case, it will be explicitly mentioned in the product description. Our goal is to ensure that you have a pleasant, green shopping experience and that you can shop with us worry-free.

For people who like to browse among the plants, we have a physical store. Check the contact page for opening hours and more info.

Description

This mutation of the Philodendron erubescens is similar to the Philodendron Pink Princess. With the orange spots in the leaves, this extremely rare plant forms a beautiful play of colors in the leaves. The mutation is in the DNA and can form unusual, different patterns both above the leaf and below the leaf. Each new leaf is a gift. Currently, it is still difficult to obtain this sought-after houseplant.

The name is very similar to the Philodendron Prince of Orange, yet this species is quite a bit different in appearance, as the orange spots appear in random patterns on the leaves. The Prince of Orange plant, on the other hand, has a different leaf shape, tends to grow a bit more compact and only has orange color in the new leaves all over the leaf. Later, those leaves turn green. The variegata spots of the Philodendron Orange Princess do remain in the leaves as the leaves age.

Care

Water and light

Care of this houseplant is relatively easy and similar to the popular Philodendron Pink Princess. This species likes clean water, such as rainwater, and a spot with plenty of indirect daylight. 

Temperature

On the other hand, this plant is not a fan of drafts, but does well at temperatures between 17 and 25 degrees Celcius. The optimal temperature for growth is around 24 degrees Celcius, but a few degrees lower the plant can tolerate well.

Humidity

With higher temperatures in the summer, a humidifier and fan can help keep the plant from drying out too quickly and from giving bacteria and mold a chance. Be careful with drafts, however, as this plant does not like them. Typically, this houseplant likes a humidity of 60-80%. Below 50% can cause the plant to grow less easily and prevent the new leaves from unfolding easily. Regular light misting with room temperature rainwater also helps to stimulate the plant in growth and maintain humidity levels.

Nutrition

For proper growth of this particular plant, it is best to give a lower concentration than normal houseplants during the growing season. This can be tapered off in the winter. Orange Princess' orange spots can be damaged if too much nutrition is given or if the quality of water is too low. Rainwater or filtered water at room temperature with a lower dose of quality houseplant food can prevent this relatively easily. For example, check out our accessories page for high-quality houseplant nutrition that is easy to mix into the water.
