Philodendron Pink Princess Mutation

A rare and unique mutation of the Philodendron Pink Princess, this variety features a distinctive whitening effect that covers the original green tones of the leaves. This whitening creates a more muted, sophisticated “Morandi green” hue across the entire plant. In addition, the leaves are often surrounded by a white border, giving the plant a refined, elegant appearance with soft contrasts. This mutation offers a subtle yet striking variation compared to the classic Pink Princess, making it a highly coveted addition to plant collections.

Philodendron Pink Princess Mutation requires careful attention to light, humidity, and watering. The whitening effect in the variegation makes the plant sensitive to light, and it should be protected from direct sunlight to prevent damage. Consistent humidity is essential to maintain the soft, muted color and white borders. Regular watering with well-draining soil is key to keeping it healthy, but overwatering should be avoided to prevent root rot. This variety is best suited for experienced plant owners who can provide the right conditions for its unique appearance and subtle beauty.
