• Botanical Name: Philodendron wendlandii x P. tortum
  

• Common Names: Henderson’s Pride, Variegated Ring of Fire
  

• Description: Philodendron 'Ring of Fire' is believed to be a hybrid between Philodendron Tortum and Philodendron Wendlandii and was originally called 'Henderson's Pride'. The variation of colors on the new leaves can range from white to cream, from light to dark green, and from orange to fire red. It is a rather slow-growing philodendron but well worth the wait.

To care for your Philodendron 'Variegated Ring of Fire,' here are some simple tips:

1. Lighting: Place your Philodendron in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate some shade, but too much direct sunlight can scorch its leaves.

2. Watering: Allow the top inch of soil to dry out before watering. Philodendrons prefer slightly moist soil, but overwatering can lead to root rot. Water thoroughly and let any excess water drain away.

3. Humidity: Philodendrons enjoy moderate to high humidity. You can increase humidity by misting the leaves regularly or placing a humidifier nearby. Grouping it with other plants can also help create a humid microclimate.

4. Temperature: This plant thrives in temperatures between 65-85°F (18-29°C). Avoid exposing it to cold drafts or extreme temperature fluctuations.

5. Soil: Use well-draining soil that retains moisture. A mix of peat moss, perlite, and potting soil works well for Philodendrons.

6. Pruning: Trim any yellow or dead leaves to maintain the plant's overall health and appearance. You can also prune to control its size and shape.

Remember to observe your plant closely and adjust care based on its specific needs. Enjoy caring for your beautiful Philodendron 'Variegated Ring of Fire'! 🌿🔥
