Philodendron erubescens 'Pink Princess'
The Philodendron erubescens 'Pink Princess' is undoubtedly one of the most popular at the moment. With its glossy dark green, almost black foliage and its magnificent light pink variegation, it is not called 'Pink Princess' for nothing. The leaves of the PPP, as it is sometimes called, are indeed the place of dazzling contrast with the splashes of pink. This variegation is not constant, each new leaf will be a surprise. Philodendron erubescens are climbers by nature, so be sure to give it a trellis or pole to climb on. As it grows, gently secure the vine to the support structure.
The green and pink color combination is necessary for your 'Pink Princess' to thrive. The green parts are essential for photosynthesis. So if too many leaves start to turn pink, your plant will struggle to feed itself and may die. On the other hand, if you have too much green, you lose what makes your plant a 'Pink Princess'. If you notice new leaves growing pure pink, prune the stems just above the node (the place where your new variegated leaves will grow). Ideally, you try to keep one last leaf on the stem with balanced variegation.
