{"product_id":"philodendron-red-moon","title":"Philodendron Red Moon","description":"\u003cp\u003ePhilodendron 'Red Moon' glows with brilliant pale lime-yellow leaves splashed with random red splotches that slowly deepen to gentle tropical light green as they mature—new growth emerges reddish before settling into luminous variegation. Long leaves tightly spaced around single dark red-striped stems create upright elegant bushy form (3 feet tall at maturity) with stiff, barely visible trunk that keeps plant standing proud without support. Named by Botanical Growers collector in Redlands, Florida 1999 (not the chemically-induced Asian knock-off). Technically a climbing variety but maintains compact self-heading form with simple trimming 1-2x yearly—no moss pole drama required. Perfect medium-to-low-light champion that brings tropical color-changing magic to dim corners where other philodendrons would stretch and suffer. Easy-care rare beauty that tolerates neglect while delivering stunning foliage theater.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLIGHT:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium to bright indirect light ideal; tolerates low light beautifully; 1-2 hours morning direct sun acceptable; avoid harsh afternoon sun (scorches leaves) \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWATER:\u003c\/strong\u003e Water when top 2 inches dry (weekly checks); keep soil moist but never soggy; can only go 1-2 weeks without water; prefers consistent moisture \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHUMIDITY:\u003c\/strong\u003e Prefers higher humidity but adapts to average household; higher humidity = broader, thicker, bigger leaves; use humidifier or pebble tray \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFERTILIZER:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3x yearly during spring\/summer with balanced liquid\/granular\/slow-release fertilizer; sparingly applied 6+ inches from base to avoid root burn \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTEMPERATURE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Warm tropical temperatures ideal; thrives indoors with average household temps \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTOXICITY:\u003c\/strong\u003e Toxic to cats, dogs, and humans—calcium oxalate crystals like all philodendrons \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBeginner Friendly?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes—easy to medium care; very forgiving, tolerates low light, maintains bushy form naturally, adapts to various conditions\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHOW OUR SHIPPING WORKS We ship all live plants with custom packing, insulation, and lots of cushioning so they arrive in the best condition possible.
