Philodendron Bloody Mary 10” basket

The Philodendron ‘Bloody Mary’ is a rare and dramatic variety prized for its deep red stems and dark green to burgundy foliage. Its striking colors set it apart from other philodendrons, making it a collector’s favorite and a bold statement piece in any indoor jungle. Native to the tropics, it grows best in bright, indirect light—such as near an east-facing window or a filtered south window. Too much direct sun can burn its leaves, while low light will reduce its vibrant coloration. With proper lighting, the rich tones of the ‘Bloody Mary’ truly shine, highlighting its unique character.

Caring for this philodendron is relatively simple. It enjoys evenly moist, well-draining soil, and you should allow the top inch to dry before watering again. High humidity and warmth help it thrive, and rotating the plant ensures even growth on all sides. Like other philodendrons, it’s a climber, so offering a moss pole or support will encourage larger, more dramatic leaves. With steady care and the right light direction, the Philodendron ‘Bloody Mary’ grows into a stunning focal point that adds a touch of gothic elegance to your plant collection.
