Philodendron 'Ring of Fire Gold'

Bearing an apt moniker, the Philodendron 'Ring of Fire Gold' is a remarkable houseplant originating from the rainforests of South America. Its leaves are a veritable color palette, featuring hues of gold, green, and red – further embellished by unique striations, or vein patterns, that radiate from the center of the plant. At maturity, this beauty stands at approximately 24 inches in height and width, although the offshoots can extend its presence even more. In a well-drained planter or a tropical terrarium, the heart-shaped leaves will begin to form a lush canopy of foliage, while in a hanging basket, they will cascade downwards, creating an attractive "falling" effect. Despite its dramatic appearance, the 'Ring of Fire Gold' is a moderate grower – but if allowed, it may start to develop a characteristic aerial root system, which intriguingly mimics a network of "vines" where the base of the plant meets the potting medium. Adding to the already magnificent display offered by its foliage, keep an eye out for its white spathe flowers in the spring months, which remain open throughout the day and night. This philodendron variety also sports a unique feature - its leaves change color depending on light exposure. They can start as a bright yellow when new, then gradually turn to green with hints of red or deep orange, like flickering flames around the edges, living up to its 'Ring of Fire' name. Adaptable and resilient, the 'Ring of Fire Gold' is not fussy about its environment. It thrives in bright, indirect light and appreciates regular watering but will forgive you if you occasionally forget. In return, it will not only beautify your space with its dramatic foliage but also purify the air, making it an excellent addition to your indoor garden or a thoughtful gift for a plant-loving friend. With its vivid colors, striking leaf patterns, and impressive adaptability, the Philodendron 'Ring of Fire Gold' is truly a spectacle to behold. It’s not just a plant; it's a living piece of art that brings a touch of the tropics right into your home. Whether you're a novice plant parent or a seasoned green thumb, this dazzling philodendron variety will surely set your indoor garden ablaze with its fiery beauty.

Plant sizing is based on the diameter of the nursery pot (2", 2.5", 3", 4" etc), not the plant itself. Plants may be slightly larger or smaller than the pot they are grow in depending on availability or time of year. While we do our best to ship plants as similar to those pictured as possible, please keep in mind that all plants are unique from one to the next, and display color, shape, and growth variation based on current environment, time of year, and other contributing factors. Please note that we ship our plants as dry as possible in the fall and winter months to prevent root rot or freezing. They will plump back up after planting!
