Philodendron 'Red Anderson' Variegata

Philodendron 'Red Anderson' Variegata is a variegated climbing Philodendron with red-toned new growth, burgundy stems, and glossy leaves marked in green, cream, white, and red-pink. New leaves can show different mixes of marbling, streaks, pale sectors, and green tissue.

Young foliage often carries the warmest tones before hardening into deeper green with cream-white variegation. The stems and petioles keep a darker red tone between new leaves. As the stem lengthens, a pole, plank, hardwood stake, or coco support gives aerial roots a surface for attachment.

Red stems and variegated climbing growth

  • Growth habit: Climbing Philodendron with a visible stem, nodes, aerial roots, and trainable upward growth.
  • Leaf colour: New foliage can open red-pink before maturing into green, cream, white, and softer pink tones.
  • Variegation: Patterns vary naturally from leaf to leaf, with marbling, splashes, streaks, and occasional broader pale sections.
  • Stem colour: Burgundy-red stems and petioles keep warm colour visible below the foliage.
  • Indoor habit: Grows as a supported indoor climber, with the lengthening stem producing nodes and aerial roots as it develops.

Climbing stem, nodes and variegated growth

Each node can hold a leaf, an aerial root, and a future growth point. Keep nodes firm and exposed when tying the plant in place, and use stem sections with viable nodes for propagation.

Variegation can shift between leaves as the plant grows. Some leaves may show stronger pale areas, others may carry more green, and new growth can open with red-pink tones that soften as the blade matures. Fully green growth can be pruned back to a healthy variegated node if the plant starts losing its patterned character.

As the plant develops, wider leaf spacing or smaller new blades can point to low light, root stress, or irregular watering. Pale leaf sections are more sensitive to harsh sun, so bright indirect light is safer than direct midday exposure.

Growing Philodendron 'Red Anderson' Variegata indoors

  • Light: Give bright indirect light. Soft morning or late-day sun can be tolerated after acclimation, but strong midday sun can scorch pale variegated sections.
  • Watering: Water thoroughly once the upper 30–50% of the substrate has dried. Let excess water drain away so the lower root zone does not stay stagnant.
  • Substrate: Use a chunky aroid mix with bark, coco chips or coco coir, perlite, pumice, and a small amount of moisture-retentive material. The mix should hold some moisture while keeping air around the roots.
  • Drainage: Keep the plant in a pot with drainage holes. A dense or collapsed mix can hold too much water around the base of the stem and increase root stress.
  • Humidity: Around 50–70% helps new leaves expand smoothly, especially while variegated blades are unfurling.
  • Temperature: Keep it warm indoors, ideally around 18–28°C. Avoid cold, wet substrate and prolonged temperatures below 15°C.
  • Support: Add a pole, plank, stake, or other firm support while the stem is still easy to position. Tie the stem loosely at the nodes and keep pressure away from the petioles.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced houseplant or aroid fertiliser. Reduce feeding when light levels drop and growth slows.
  • Repotting: Repot when the root ball is full, the plant dries much faster than before, or the support no longer feels stable in the pot. Choose a pot only one size larger to keep moisture easier to manage.
  • Pruning: Trim damaged leaves close to the stem and cut fully green or overextended growth above a healthy variegated node.
  • Semi-hydroponics: Can adapt to airy mineral substrates if roots are cleaned carefully, moisture stays even, and the stem base is kept above the wet zone.
  • Propagation: Use stem cuttings with at least one healthy node. For patterned plants, choose a cutting with visible variegation on or near the node.

Leaf, stem and root troubleshooting

  • Yellow lower leaves: Check whether the substrate is staying wet for too long. Let more of the pot dry before watering again and inspect the roots if yellowing spreads.
  • Soft stem base: Often points to cold, wet conditions around the lower stem. Check the root ball, remove damaged tissue, and restart healthy node cuttings if the base is failing.
  • Brown marks on pale areas: Cream-white sections can scorch faster than green tissue. Move the plant away from direct sun and check that roots are not drying unevenly.
  • Long gaps between leaves: Usually linked to low light, weak root activity, or delayed support. Move the plant into brighter indirect light and secure the stem before it leans heavily.
  • Small new leaves: Check for tired substrate, a cramped root ball, irregular watering, or reduced warmth.
  • Loss of variegation: Fully green growth can continue producing greener leaves. Cut back to a healthy variegated node if the plant keeps pushing plain green growth.
  • Leaf stuck in the cataphyll: Dry air, root stress, or inconsistent watering can interrupt expansion. Stabilise the moisture rhythm and raise ambient humidity if the problem repeats.
  • Pests: Inspect leaf undersides, petioles, and new growth for thrips, mites, scale, and mealybugs, especially if leaves mark, distort, or emerge smaller than expected.

How the colours change with maturity

The strongest red and pink tones usually appear on new leaves. As each blade hardens, the warmer colour can soften while green, cream, and white variegation becomes clearer. Petioles and stems keep the redder tone for longer, so the red stem colour remains visible as older leaves mature.

Avoid bending mature stem sections sharply when tying them to support, and place ties around the stem while leaving individual petioles free. If the plant becomes top-heavy, adjust the support and pot stability before the stem twists or pulls against the root ball.

Pet and child safety

Keep Philodendron 'Red Anderson' Variegata away from pets and children. Its tissue contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals, which can irritate the mouth, lips, tongue, throat, skin, and digestive tract if chewed, ingested, or handled by sensitive skin. Wear gloves when pruning if you react to aroid sap, and wash hands after taking cuttings.

Philodendron genus and name background

Philodendron belongs to the Araceae family and includes evergreen aroids with climbing, creeping, rhizomatous, tree-like, or rosette-forming growth depending on the species. The genus name comes from Greek roots often translated as “tree-loving”, reflecting the way many Philodendron grow with or against trees in tropical habitats.

Philodendron 'Red Anderson' Variegata has burgundy stems, red-pink emerging leaves, and glossy variegated blades that mature with green, cream, and white patterning.

Its colour changes are most visible in active new growth, while the climbing stem gives the plant a clear upward structure as it matures.

My Dog's All-Time Favorite Toy
Color: Pink, Style: Grunt Sound
The first one of these I ever got her was at Petco on sale for $1 - best $1 ever! The reviews are right, though. The toy doesn't last forever and it's not good for aggressive chewers. In my opinion, however, that doesn't make it a bad toy. Here's why: Aggressive chewers comments: Getting my sister's French Bulldog a stuffed toy (that's shredded in 5 minutes), compared to my Pitbull who does not tear up any toys, but is a stronger chewer when it comes to bones. My pup does not tear this up at all, but my sister's dog would. My point is: Don't get your dog a soft toy if your dog ruins soft toys. Regarding the not long-lasting comments: the honking noise mechanism inside eventually pops inside the hole, rendering it honkless. Ours lasted about 6 months. It's pretty much impossible to fix unless you want to trouble yourself to fix it for 1 good honk each fix. I would, but I do also have a job to get to. My dog does still carry it around in it's noiseless state, but she doesn't play with it with the same enthusiasm. How did I resolve this? I bought her 5 😂 She's only on her second, but I decided to stock it because they were on sale for $5.10 - I don't think I will get rid of any of them. I will just let her play with them on rotation until they fall apart. Besides all that, my dog just simply loves this toy. I have never seen her so happy & playful with a toy. I can't promise this for your dog, as I can only tell you about mine. We even have a "Sheepy" song. [I have not been paid or given free Sheeps - my Sweet Pea just really loves her Sheepy]

Loud! Just Like She Likes It
Color: Hedgehog, Style: Big Squeak Hedgehog
My Great Dane loves this noisy toy. She prefers squeaky toys with loud, unusual squeakers. (I need to invest in earplugs.) She's not an agressuve chewer or rough player so this should last a long time. Like most squeaky toys she has, the squeaker wears out before the physical toy does and once the noise is gone she won't play with it any more. If others have a similar issue...check with your local animal shelter. Some (not all) will disinfect used toys for the dogs in their care.

Fun while it lasts…
Color: Pink, Style: Grunt Sound
Fun while it lasts. Doesn’t last very long. This is our third one and last maybe a few weeks. The part that makes noise comes detached inside which causes to toy to no longer make noise, but also can be dangerous if it comes out.

Great alternative to the grunting pigs!
Color: Pink, Style: Grunt Sound
We go through A LOT of dog toys at my dog based business. The grunting pigs are super cute, but they are also super fragile. It is incredibly easy to dislodge the squeaker. (Grunter?) These are certainly not robust chew toys, but the squeaker is about 30% better at staying put than that of the pigs. It's also smaller, so it's easier for the smaller dogs to play with. These are a new favorite! Update: August, 2024 I bought an orange hedgehog. Amazon won't let me review that separately so I had to add to my sheep review. The orange hedgehog is only 3 stars. It is made of a harder plastic than the bear and the sheep. It also has a standard squeaker, not the grunting of the bear and sheep. But harder plastic DOES NOT mean that it will withstand an aggressive chewer! If your dog likes to "kill the squeaker" they will be able to do so in minutes! This IS NOT a chew toy! If you are looking for a toy for an aggressive chewer, look at the Orbeez line from Outward Hound. The other thing that makes me less enthusiastic about the orange hedgehog is that the yellow paint started flaking off immediately. I will have to scrub it all off because it looks terrible! The dogs don't care, but their owners sure do! I haven't had that problem with the sheep or the bears. The orange hedgehog is almost like it's from a completely different company!
