Philodendron Prince of Orange, is a self-heading tropical plant grown for its vibrant new growth. It is a cultivated hybrid, not found in the wild. What makes this plant special is the way new leaves emerge in bright orange tones and gradually mature to copper and then deep green, giving it a constantly shifting color display. The leaves are broad, smooth, and slightly oval, held upright on sturdy stems, creating a full, compact shape.
Light requirements
Place Philodendron ‘Prince of Orange’ in an east or west window for the best color and growth, positioned at the window or within 1 to 3 feet depending on intensity. A south window can work if pulled back to avoid harsh direct exposure, while a north window will slow growth and dull the orange tones. Under grow lights, use 5000K to 6500K and keep the light 10 to 14 inches above the canopy. It performs best around 200 to 500 foot-candles. Consistent light helps maintain vibrant new growth.
Watering & environment
Allow the soil to dry about halfway down before watering, and always check the root zone with a chopstick or meter. Use a well-draining mix and avoid letting the plant sit in excess moisture. It prefers moderate humidity and steady airflow, adapting well to typical indoor conditions.
What your plant is telling you
If leaves begin to droop or feel thinner, it is ready for water. If leaves yellow or the base softens, the soil is staying too wet. If new leaves come in dull or less orange, it needs more consistent light.

Beautiful plants I always buy my plants through rooted plant shop. that’s my go to shop
The book is done so well. I can’t imagine the time you spent putting this all together. You’re truly a gifted gardener. Thank so much for this. I’ve always gardened outside the house plants and succulents are new for me. So I really appreciate this book and your website with plants in certain lighting. Thanks for helping me succeed in my plants. I also bought a Micah’s. What beautiful plant. Packed nicely and secure. Thank you I’ll be back for more plants. In a true follower from Kansas.
My Black Velvet Alocasia arrived VERY well packaged, healthy and is already pushing out a new leaf! With all the helpful information listed on the site I was able to place it and care for it exactly as it is needed.
This arrived in great shape and vibrant color. Will be ordering again.
What a cool way to discover new plants! I love it!
I am stunned at the Ring of Fire's color. So pretty. She's looking like she handled the trip well and I can't wait to watch her grow.
Beautiful plant. Shipping was great. Plant was well protected for shipping. Even came with an instruction card on what you should do when the plant you unpacked it.
