{"product_id":"30-40cm-red-anderson-philodendron-17cm-pot","title":"Red Anderson Philodendron 17cm Pot House Plant","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"42\" data-end=\"368\"\u003eThe Philodendron Red Anderson is a rare and highly sought-after variegated philodendron known for its dramatic blend of deep green, creamy white and blush-pink to burgundy-red colouring. New leaves often emerge with striking pink or red tones before maturing into a marbled mix of colours, making every leaf completely unique.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"370\" data-end=\"685\"\u003eUnlike many philodendrons, Red Anderson has a more upright, climbing growth habit. Given support from a moss pole or totem, it can produce larger, more dramatic foliage over time. Mature plants can become impressively tall, with long stems and broad leaves that make a real statement in any indoor plant collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"687\" data-end=\"955\"\u003eBecause of the high level of variegation, no two plants are the same. Some leaves may have heavy splashes of white and pink, whilst others may be mostly green with just a hint of colour. Lower leaves can occasionally yellow or fade as the plant grows, which is normal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"16pqs5l\" data-start=\"957\" data-end=\"971\"\u003eCare Guide\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"973\" data-end=\"1288\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"973\" data-end=\"982\"\u003eLight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"982\" data-end=\"985\"\u003ePhilodendron Red Anderson thrives in bright, indirect light. The stronger the light, the better the variegation and red tones will be. Avoid direct midday sun, which can scorch the pale sections of the leaves. Too little light may cause the plant to lose variegation and produce smaller, greener leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1290\" data-end=\"1510\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1290\" data-end=\"1302\"\u003eWatering\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1302\" data-end=\"1305\"\u003eAllow the top few centimetres of soil to dry out between waterings. Water thoroughly, then let any excess drain away. Red Anderson dislikes sitting in wet compost and is prone to root rot if kept too damp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1512\" data-end=\"1776\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1512\" data-end=\"1524\"\u003eHumidity\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1524\" data-end=\"1527\"\u003eThis plant prefers higher humidity levels, ideally above 60%. It will grow in average household humidity, but the leaves may stay smaller and the variegated sections can brown more easily. A humid room, pebble tray or humidifier will help it thrive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1778\" data-end=\"1866\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1778\" data-end=\"1793\"\u003eTemperature\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1793\" data-end=\"1796\"\u003eKeep between 18–28°C.
