Philodendron erubescens 'New Red' – Vibrant Climber with Red Stems and Leaf Undersides

Philodendron erubescens 'New Red' is a recent cultivar selected for its striking red coloration. Like its close relative Philodendron ‘Red Emerald’, this scandent climber produces deep red petioles and stems, but ‘New Red’ is distinguished by its red-tinted leaf undersides. Juvenile foliage emerges in a dramatic dark red before maturing into deep green, giving this plant a constantly shifting display.

Distinctive features of 'New Red'

  • Colour shift: new leaves emerge dark red, turning green with age while keeping red undersides.
  • Stems and petioles: strong red tones, flattened adaxially toward the apex, terete below.
  • Leaf blades: elongate, ovate-triangular, sagittate in shape with herbaceous texture.
  • Growth habit: scandent and vigorous, quickly climbing when given vertical support.

Background and breeding

This cultivar was developed as a modern selection of Philodendron erubescens, a species native to Colombia. While ‘Red Emerald’ popularised the group, ‘New Red’ offers an updated form with stronger pigmentation and ornamental appeal, especially in the contrasting leaf undersides.

How to care for Philodendron erubescens 'New Red'

  • Light: bright, indirect light enhances red pigmentation; avoid harsh direct sun.
  • Temperature: grows best at 20 – 28 °C; avoid long exposure below 16 °C.
  • Humidity: 60 – 80% is ideal; stable conditions keep foliage lush.
  • Watering: water when the top 2 – 3 cm of substrate dry slightly; avoid soggy soil.
  • Substrate: well-aerated aroid mix with bark, perlite, and coco coir for drainage.
  • Feeding: light, regular fertilisation during active growth supports strong climbing.
  • Support: provide a moss pole or trellis to allow upright growth and larger leaves.

Challenges and solutions

  • Pale or faded colour: often linked to low light or nutrient deficiency.
  • Yellowing leaves: usually a sign of overwatering or compacted soil.
  • Leggy growth: insufficient light; move to a brighter filtered spot.
  • Pests: check regularly for mites or thrips, particularly on tender new leaves.

Notes for collectors

  • Comparison: differs from ‘Red Emerald’ by consistently showing red undersides.
  • Visual impact: offers year-round colour contrast even after leaves mature.
  • Rarity: newer to cultivation, still less common than older red philodendron hybrids.
  • Toxicity: philodendrons contain calcium oxalate; keep out of reach of pets and children.

Etymology

Genus:Philodendron (Schott, 1830), from Greek philo- “loving” + dendron “tree,” referencing its climbing nature.Cultivar name: ‘New Red’ highlights the enhanced red tones in petioles, stems, and leaf undersides.

Propagation and growth potential

  • Propagation: stem cuttings with 1 – 2 nodes root readily under warm, humid conditions.
  • Medium: sphagnum moss or an airy aroid substrate supports healthy rooting.
  • Size indoors: typically 1 – 2 m with support; leaves enlarge significantly with age.

Why Philodendron erubescens 'New Red' is worth collecting

With its bold red stems, vibrant undersides, and rapid growth, Philodendron erubescens 'New Red' is a striking addition to any indoor collection. It combines ease of care with a constantly changing foliage display, making it a standout climbing philodendron for collectors and enthusiasts alike.

Good product.
Color: Gray, Size: 18"x24"
I live in Michigan so we have cool nights. We have hot days. Last night I went to pick up my new cooling mat to put it up for the evening and was totally blown away at how cool it was to the touch. For the price, the quality is outstanding. I will be purchasing more in the future once I know that my cats will use it. We haven't got that far yet, but once they do I will try to include pictures of them using it. I hope this helps someone as I am pretty picky about what product I buy. I was thoroughly impressed. The back side, or the warmer side is very soft and perfect for winter time use. It was an absolute genius idea to make one that is universal.

Max loves it!
Color: Gray, Size: 24"x36"
Phoenix got hotter sooner this year, and even with a short haircut, my baby kept trying to find a cooler spot. I had my doubts about whether this bed would actually keep him cooler, and Max was initially suspicious (especially after he saw the cat picture on the label). It only took one hot afternoon to sell him on this cool, comfortable lounge spot. It does feel cooler; it's a lot more comfortable than the hard tile floor and he is out of the way when on it. Good buy at a good price.

GREAT QUALITY CAT BED
Color: Gray, Size: 18"x24", Color: Gray, Size: 18"x24"
We love this self-warming and cooling cat bed because it's super soft, and the cooling side really works well! I can feel with my hand how cool it is by just touching it. I plan to put this outside in my cat's outdoor house; it will really help keep him warm in the winter and cooler in the summertime. It was super easy to throw in the wash on delicates, and I hung it up to dry. It's the perfect size, too; it should fit in his cat house perfectly and is big enough for him.

This mat works so well for my kitty!
Color: Gray, Size: 18"x24"
This pet bed is such a smart find! Someone had the smart idea to make a bed that stays cool in the Summer and warm in the Winter! The material on the Winter side is soft, snuggly plush with a foil layer to hold in the heat. Flip the mat over and it’s the perfect cooling mat for Summer, with a cooling ice silk fabric to keep cool. The mat is the perfect size for a small dog or a cat. Spot cleaning is recommended as the preferred way to clean but the listing says that it can be washed using the gentle cycle. It needs to be air dried however. My cat wasn’t impressed to begin with, but once she got a little playtime with her favorite toy and some catnip, she settled right in. This is a good mat to fit right into her crate for traveling.
