About this culture
Philodendron Red Congo (Philodendron 'Red Congo') belongs to Araceae. An ornamental Philodendron selection grown for foliage. Cultivated philodendrons include climbing and self-heading forms; exact parentage and growth habit should be linked to the documented stock rather than assumed from a trade name. Red Congo is the horticultural name used for this foliage selection. Reddish young growth and mature leaf colour should be checked on the actual stock; the name alone is not a botanical species identification. Contact ORCHISTRA to discuss nursery and wholesale supply. The supplied growth stage, plant size, packaging, quantity and delivery schedule are confirmed for each order; this catalogue entry is not a live stock commitment.

Growing information
- Bright, filtered light; avoid harsh direct sun on young foliage.
- Warm, stable conditions; protect young plants from cold draughts and frost.
- Moderate to high humidity with gentle air movement; protect newly transferred plants from rapid drying.
- Airy, well-drained potting substrate with some moisture retention. Adjust particle size to the root system and container; avoid persistent saturation.
- If supplied in vitro, acclimatize gradually after removal from the culture vessel, initially limiting water loss and increasing ventilation as roots and new leaves become functional. Keep the substrate moist, not waterlogged; follow the batch-specific transfer instructions. Match support and spacing to the actual growth habit. Self-heading plants need room around the crown; climbing selections need a suitable support as they develop.
