Philodendron erubescens 'Red Emerald'

Philodendron erubescens 'Red Emerald' is a climbing Philodendron with glossy green leaves, wine-red stems and coloured new growth. It lengthens from visible nodes, produces aerial roots and can be trained upward on a moss pole or trellis.

Red stems and petioles stay visible as the plant climbs, while mature leaves settle into a glossy green surface. New growth may open with warmer tones before hardening off.

Wine-red stems on Philodendron 'Red Emerald'

  • Stem colour: Deep red to burgundy stems and petioles contrast with glossy green leaves.
  • Growth habit: Climbing vine that responds well to a moss pole or trellis.
  • Leaves: Smooth, leathery green leaves that can gain size with stable support.
  • Pruning: Node-bearing stems can be cut back to control height or produce cuttings.

Philodendron erubescens climbing background

Philodendron erubescens comes from wet tropical forest in Colombia and grows as a climber. 'Red Emerald' follows that red-stemmed climbing habit, with coloured petioles, glossy leaves and a stem that benefits from early training.

Train the vine while the stems are still flexible; older stems become heavier and harder to redirect. A textured pole gives the aerial roots a surface to grip as the plant gains height.

Red-stem care for Philodendron 'Red Emerald'

  • Light: Bright indirect light keeps the vine from stretching too much; avoid long exposure to direct afternoon sun.
  • Watering: Water after the top 20–30% of the substrate has dried, then empty any standing water.
  • Substrate: Use a free-draining aroid mix with chunky bark, perlite or pumice, and a small amount of composted organic matter.
  • Support: Train new stems early so internodes stay manageable and leaves face outward.
  • Humidity: Moderate to good humidity supports smooth new growth, especially while leaves are unfurling.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth; reduce fertiliser when light and growth slow down.
  • Temperature: Keep it in warm indoor conditions, preferably above 18°C at night.
  • Potting: Use a pot with drainage and repot when the roots have filled the container or the vine dries out too quickly.
  • Propagation: Propagate from stem cuttings with at least one node; single leaves without a node will not produce a new vine.
  • Pruning: Cut above a node to shorten the vine or encourage new growth from lower points on the stem.
  • Semi-hydroponics: Can adapt to mineral substrates such as pon, pumice, lava or LECA if roots are transitioned carefully and the stem base is kept aerated.
  • Growth rate: Usually moderate to fast in warm, bright indoor conditions with steady support.

Philodendron 'Red Emerald' stem and leaf issues

  • Long gaps between leaves: Move the plant closer to bright filtered light and secure the stem to its support.
  • Soft, yellowing leaves: Check whether the mix is staying wet too long around the roots.
  • Scorched patches: Shift it away from direct sun, especially behind glass in summer.
  • Pest marks on new growth: Inspect petiole bases and unfurling leaves for spider mites, thrips, scale or mealybugs.

Philodendron 'Red Emerald' pet safety

Philodendron erubescens 'Red Emerald' is not suitable for pets that nibble plants. Sap and plant tissue can irritate the mouth and skin, so clean pruning tools and remove cut stems after trimming.

Philodendron erubescens etymology and publication

The genus name Philodendron comes from Greek roots meaning tree-loving. Philodendron erubescens was first published by K. Koch and Augustin in Index Seminum in 1855. The species epithet erubescens means reddening or blushing, referring to the red tones associated with the species.

100% worth it - I recommend to EVERYONE
I've seen coworkers and instructors using folding screens behind them for video calls since the pandemic started, and I finally gave in and purchased this one. I freaking LOVE it. I love that I can be on a video call and not have to worry about the angle of my laptop or having people 'in' my home while I'm at work. It's so nice. I may eventually buy and deconstruct a wall hanging to create some colorful fabric panels instead of the brown, but (and I say this as NOT a brown fabric-lover) the brown looks pretty nice. It's a very dark brown, and it serves as completely neutral while still feeling a bit warm. - No need for tools to assemble, even though it says screwdriver. - One thing: I thought it would fold up flat, and it does NOT fold up flat. Important to know. I just keep it folded up into a 16.5" (grabbed a tape measure to check) square column by my desk and unfold whenever I have video conferences. If you can't tell, I really like having this thing around. 100% recommend and would buy again.

it's a utility screen
Color: Black, Size: 3-Panel
It's a basic, utilitarian screen. It's what I expected it to be. Assembly isn't hard, but it does require two people when stretching the fabric between the poles. I got it to use in a closet to separate the water heater from the washer/dryer, so it'll be perfect for that. Pros: it's opaque and tall (my 6'4" husband can't see over it unless he is standing against it) and I like the ability for the three pieces to stand separately of each other. Cons: it's flimsy. It wobbles and will tip over easily.

Great for the price
The item is great bit I wish it were a bit more sturdy and it folded flat. It folds into a square so it does take up some room when it's not in use.

Cheap, screw holes don't line up, screen is to short, and bars take WD-40 and a mallet
This has been my worst purchase on Amazon ever. DO NOT BUY. My first issue was that bars #4 and #5 would not go together, I ended up buying WD-40 and a mallet and that kind of got them together. Now I went to but the screen on (which is almost see thought) and the screen is to short. I can't attached the bottom bar to the tall bar. The screw hole is in the wrong spot, so the screen is not secure. No amount of pulling on the screen will make it grown .25" longer. Since I can't get the bars secure the walls are not steady and fall over easily. The feet did go together very nice. I can't return them according to Amazons policy. I bought 2 sets. I'm not going to try to build the other set I have. And I can't take apart the first set, since the bars are so tightly together. Also the polls have rust on them.

Very Poor Built Quality
Color: Black, Size: 3-Panel
They use cheap tarp like cloth that you might find on a tent, so it is not suitable as a teleconferencing background without blur applied. The legs are flimsy and lack rubber feet, so it will scratch floors. The tubing is flimsy and very hard to move and adjust. This is only good if you are setting it up somewhere like a gym or a garage.
