Philodendron 'Pink Princess'

Philodendron 'Pink Princess' is a dark-leaved hybrid Philodendron with variable pink variegation across burgundy-green to near-black foliage. The pink can appear as streaks, speckles, patches or larger sectors, so each plant has its own balance of colour. The contrast is strongest when new growth is healthy, the roots are stable and the leaves are protected from harsh direct sun.

This is an upright vining plant that forms a climbing stem with nodes and aerial roots. Mature plants are easier to keep tidy with a moss pole, plank or trellis, especially once the stem gains height.

Dark foliage, pink sectors and vining growth

  • Stem habit: Upright vining Philodendron with a visible stem and aerial roots.
  • Leaf colour: Dark green to burgundy-green leaves with variable pink variegation.
  • Pattern range: Pink may appear as speckles, streaks, patches or broader sectors.
  • Mature shape: Best grown with support once the stem begins to lengthen.

Hybrid selection with variable pink leaves

Philodendron 'Pink Princess' is widely grown as a hybrid Philodendron with colourful variegated foliage and an upright, vining habit. Mature leaves are heart-shaped to ovate, held on dark petioles, and the plant can develop a taller supported stem when grown well. The pink sections contain less chlorophyll than the green tissue, so very pale leaves or large pink sectors need steadier care than darker leaves.

In cultivation, Philodendron 'Pink Princess' is recognised by dark vining growth, pink variegation and variable leaf-to-leaf colour expression.

Variegation is naturally variable. A healthy plant can produce one leaf with strong pink and another with a smaller amount of colour. Consistency is best judged across several nodes, not by a single leaf. If a stem produces only green growth for several leaves, pruning back to a stronger variegated node can redirect future growth, but the plant must have enough healthy tissue left to recover.

Care for dark foliage and pink variegation

  • Light: Give bright, indirect light for compact growth and healthy leaf expansion. Direct afternoon sun can burn pink tissue.
  • Watering: Water thoroughly after the upper substrate dries. Do not let the pot sit in standing water.
  • Substrate: Use a chunky, well-aerated aroid mix. Roots need oxygen as much as moisture, especially in cooler indoor conditions.
  • Humidity: Moderate humidity is acceptable for established plants, but dry air can make new leaves stick or tear as they open.
  • Temperature: Keep warm, ideally 18–27°C. Avoid cold draughts and sudden temperature drops.
  • Support: Use a pole or trellis when the stem gains height. Tie loosely around the stem, never around a petiole.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth. Reduce feeding when growth slows and the plant is using less water.

Diagnosing problems on Philodendron 'Pink Princess'

  • Brown pink patches: Check for direct sun, dry roots or root damage. Pink tissue browns faster than green tissue under stress.
  • Leggy growth: Move the plant to brighter indirect light and add support. Long internodes usually mean the stem is reaching.
  • Soft yellow leaves: Inspect the substrate and roots. Overwatering, poor drainage or a pot that is too large can keep roots wet for too long.
  • Small distorted leaves: Check for thrips, mites or damage inside the cataphyll before the leaf unfurls.
  • Unstable stem: Support the plant early. Older stems can crack if forced upright after hardening in a leaning position.

Pet and child safety

Philodendron 'Pink Princess' is toxic if ingested and is not suitable for chewing pets. Its calcium oxalate crystals can irritate the mouth, throat and stomach, and sap may irritate skin. Place the plant where children and animals cannot reach the leaves, stems or cuttings.

Philodendron name and cultivar meaning

Philodendron belongs to Araceae. The genus name comes from Greek phileo, meaning “to love”, and dendron, meaning “tree”, referring to the climbing habit found across many Philodendron species and hybrids. 'Pink Princess' describes the plant’s pink variegation against dark foliage.

Philodendron 'Pink Princess' develops dark vining foliage, natural pink variation and a stem that can be grown on support.

Horrible and messy.
Extremely thick and messy. Comes with a spray attachment but you cannot spray this at all Tried to use the product. It was a mess. Took me ahalf hour to clean it up. I thought I just got a bad bottle... I ordered it again and it was just as bad. I should have sent both back. I wasted my money. Both were unusable. Will not order this again it's terrible.

BEWARE! THIS DOES NOT WORK
Does not work no way you try it. All it does is makes you look extremely dirty like you rub mud all over your body and gets all over any and everything that you touch. I personally don't want to stand for a whole hour, nor do I have the time too, to wait for this to dry. You have to get back in the shower because of the mud look it leaves or it gets all over stuff after it dries for an hour. When you get in to wash off it takes what mud tan you get right off with it. I've used this product for over a month and tried every way I could find on the internet to use this product, or similar products, and still no good results. Before I ever post a review I give more than enough time for product to work bc I give everything I purchase the benefit of proving what the description I read says. Unfortunately this product did the total opposite and showed me no results. So beware to the next person searching for a product to give you as a very busy mother that doesn't exactly have time to work, take care of home, kids, husband, etc or anyone wanting to get a quick tan since you don't have time to get it the natural way to lay out our go swimming in order to get a tan. Let me help save you much disappointment like I feel, DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT BC IT DOES NOT WORK.

Natural looking tan, easy to apply.
The sunless tanner is easy to apply with a mitt and leaves you with a natural looking tan. There is no strong smell, which is a huge plus, in my opinion. This is the only sunless tanner I will use.
