Philodendron 'Red Heart' – Rare Hybrid with Striking Red Leaf Centers

Philodendron 'Red Heart' is an uncommon hybrid admired for its dramatic coloration. New leaves unfurl in deep maroon tones before maturing into very dark green, while a vivid red flush remains along the center of each blade. Unlike many philodendrons, this cultivar prefers slightly drier conditions, making it a distinctive and adaptable choice for collectors.

Recognisable features of 'Red Heart'

  • Colouration: strong red hue radiating from the center vein, contrasting with dark foliage.
  • Juvenile growth: leaves emerge in deep maroon and transition to rich green.
  • Leaf form: broad blades with a smooth, herbaceous texture.
  • Growth habit: compact and upright, suitable for smaller displays or medium pots.

Background and breeding

The exact parentage of 'Red Heart' is not fully documented, but it stands out within hybrid philodendrons for its intense red pigmentation. Its unusual colour profile makes it highly desirable for collectors seeking hybrids with traits beyond the common greens and burgundies.

Care guidelines for Philodendron 'Red Heart'

  • Light: thrives in bright, indirect light; too little light reduces red intensity.
  • Temperature: prefers 20 – 28 °C; avoid prolonged cold below 16 °C.
  • Humidity: 60 – 75% keeps foliage vibrant but tolerates average indoor conditions.
  • Watering: allow the top layer of soil to dry more than with most philodendrons; avoid waterlogging.
  • Substrate: airy, well-draining mix with bark, perlite, and coco coir.
  • Feeding: monthly, diluted fertiliser during active growth enhances colour and strength.

Possible challenges

  • Red fading: often caused by insufficient light or weak nutrition.
  • Yellowing leaves: usually linked to overwatering or compacted substrate.
  • Slow growth: common if kept too wet; this hybrid prefers slightly drier cycles.
  • Pests: check regularly for mites or thrips, especially on young foliage.

Collector’s notes

  • Rarity: still uncommon in trade, available mainly through specialist nurseries.
  • Colour impact: red streaking remains visible even after leaves mature to dark green.
  • Adaptability: more tolerant of drier conditions than most philodendrons.
  • Toxicity: contains calcium oxalate; keep away from pets and children.

Etymology

Genus:Philodendron (Schott, 1830), from Greek philo- “loving” + dendron “tree,” in reference to the genus’ climbing habit.Cultivar name: ‘Red Heart’ reflects the plant’s vivid red flush running from its center vein.

Propagation and size

  • Propagation: stem cuttings with one or two nodes root well in warm, humid setups.
  • Rooting medium: sphagnum moss or fine bark/perlite encourages quick rooting.
  • Indoor size: compact, usually 50 – 90 cm tall with broad leaves as it matures.

Why Philodendron 'Red Heart' is a collector’s gem

With its deep maroon juvenile growth and lasting red flush through mature leaves, Philodendron 'Red Heart' offers a bold splash of colour in a manageable, easy-care hybrid. A rare find for any philodendron collection.

I love these. I use them to wrap my tumbler before sublimating them in my sublimation oven. They work every well to let me see the process so I don’t scorch my design.

Best out of all other heat tapes!
Number of Items: 6
It is extremely weird how excited I became when trying this tape out for the first time. I can't speak for all of the blue heat tapes but this one in particular is all sorts of great to use. Thicker, easier to tear, stronger adhesive than the brown and clear heat tapes I've tried. I started with the clear because I was afraid of the other colored tapes leaving marks on my substrates. The clear tape was a good amount of thickness and easy to tear and use but the adhesion was terrible. I would wrap it around the rim of tumblers, fold it down into the inside of the tumbler and it would pop right back up. Forget using it on any fabrics, did not hold sublimation sheets down to totes, shirts, mousepads, at all. The brown tape I used had better adhesion but was thin and stretchy? floppy? Didn't know this was even an annoying thing until I moved on to this blue tape and was just blown away. Still blows me away how it was cheaper than the other two kind but is the thickest and best gripping of them all. So far it does not leave any marks on any of my items. I'm so impressed by this tape that I still NOTICE it everytime it's tearing off perfectly or holding my things together so well.

great for sublimation for shirts, tumblers and also fast delivery
Number of Items: 4
This tape works great for my sublimation tumblers and shirts; there is no glue residue that is left behind. It gives my tumblers a good seal at the top and bottom and down the side where I don't have air gaps in my picture I want to sublimate on the tumbler. It is durable, and it does not smell. It is easy to use and cut. It is a great value for the money and it was delivered the next day.

This tape is perfect! I’ve been using other types and nothing compares to blue tape. It holds well and is nice and wide. I’ve had no problems with it. Price is right as well.
