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.

Great size
Size: X-Small, Color: Pig
These are the perfect size for my small and medium size dogs. Plus they hold up very well. The squeaker popped within the first couple of days but they still love it.

A "Maybe" for smaller breeds. Not for pitties that study and exploit their prey's weaknesses..
Size: X-Small, Color: Fox, Size: X-Small, Color: Fox
Not for my pittie. I wasn't paying attention to the size of the toy when I ordered it. I knew as soon as I opened the box that it wasn't going to work out, but I didn't pay too much more than I would have if I bought it from Ross and I didn't want to fuss with trying to return it. The weakness in the toy is in the faux fur fabric that forms the main pocket. There's too much space around the squeaker and the fabric is thin enough for a larger breed to puncture through the fabric with their teeth to grip and rip. Once there's an opening in the main fabric, it's game over. The seams of the toy are good, they are strong and well stitched. The overall shape of the toy is also good- no appendages to grab ahold of. Only flaws of the toy is the type of fabric selected and too much empty space. May last for toy breeds and small breeds...but not for my pittie. She played with it for 5 minutes to learn its weaknesses and then promptly gutted the squeaker from the fox in another 5 minutes.

Holds up well with aggressive chewers.
Size: X-Small, Color: Pig
This is my dog's favorite toy. And she has LOTS of toys so that is big endorsement. Miss Trina ( 40 pound boxer) loves to squeak it in Enzo's ( big brother 140 pound Cane Corso) face when he is sleeping. They also play tug of war . They destroy the toy eventually ( we are on the third one) but it holds for a few weeks. Miss Trina also likes to par corps around the house with this toy. Her favorite way to use this toy is bring it my husband for him to throw it . If he is napping she just drops in on his face. Definately recommend this toy.

Fun toy for my dogs but squeaker broke easily
Size: X-Small, Color: Pig
So far my aggressive chewer dog hasn’t been able to rip this toy apart but in one day she did break the squeaker inside. But I like that she hasn’t been able to rip it apart so it is pretty tough. I got this on a deal so it was good price for a toy that will last. Put 1 star down because the squeaker quality wasn’t the best when she was able to break it so fast. Esp love that it has no stuffing. And it’s a cute pink pig which is great.
