The Imperial Red

Philodendron Imperial Red

With lush, empowering long oval shaped leaves; the Philodendron Imperial Red - Imperial Red – is hard to find and there are only a few available in a 15cm or 20cm nursery pot (terracotta pot not included). 

Each new slender light burgundy leaf, curls out to reveal glossy bright long leaves, that extend out from a dense cluster of bold green and red leaves with light red young stems. This compact yet dramatic plant is more upright than its relative the Imperial Green and the rich burgundy, green leaves make it a prized houseplant and a remarkable addition to any indoor space...
