Philodendron × mandaianum 'Ruby' – Hybrid Climber with Dark Red Foliage

Philodendron × mandaianum 'Ruby' is a 2014 hybrid between Philodendron erubescens and Philodendron hastatum. This cultivar sets itself apart with striking, dark red stems and petioles, paired with foliage that carries deep red tones seldom seen in climbing philodendrons. Beyond its colour, it is also a robust, forgiving hybrid that adapts easily to a range of indoor conditions.

What makes 'Ruby' distinctive

  • Hybrid parentage: a cross of P. erubescens × P. hastatum, stabilised in 2014.
  • Foliage colour: dark red to burgundy shades overlaying the leaf blades.
  • Stem character: petioles and climbing stems flushed in ruby red.
  • Growth habit: vigorous climbing vine, well suited to poles or trellises.

Background and breeding

The hybrid was originally produced in 2014 and has since become known among collectors as an accessible but visually distinctive philodendron. 'Ruby' builds on the climbing vigor of P. erubescens while integrating the cool-toned strength of P. hastatum, resulting in a compact but colourful foliage plant.

Care guidelines for Philodendron × mandaianum 'Ruby'

  • Light: bright, indirect light brings out the deepest red tones; avoid direct midday sun.
  • Temperature: performs best at 20 – 28 °C; keep above 16 °C for consistent growth.
  • Humidity: 60 – 80% promotes lush foliage and healthy climbing shoots.
  • Watering: water when the upper 2 – 3 cm of substrate dry slightly; do not leave roots waterlogged.
  • Substrate: chunky, airy mix with bark, coco coir, and perlite for drainage and aeration.
  • Feeding: light, regular fertilizer during active growth supports strong colour and leaf size.
  • Support: a moss pole or totem helps leaves enlarge and stems remain upright.
  • Alternative culture: adapts to mineral or semi-hydro substrates with stable moisture levels.

Challenges growers may encounter

  • Pale leaves: often the result of low feeding; increase light fertilization.
  • Leggy stems: indicates insufficient light; move closer to bright filtered exposure.
  • Yellowing foliage: usually caused by excess watering or poorly draining substrate.
  • Pest sensitivity: watch for thrips and spider mites; early inspection is key.

Collector’s perspective

  • Rarity: less common than mainstream red philodendrons, offering a fresh colour profile.
  • Display: foliage colour intensifies when grown against light-coloured or textured backgrounds.
  • Adaptability: easier to care for than many red-foliaged hybrids, suitable for both novices and collectors.
  • Safety: philodendrons are toxic if ingested; keep out of reach of pets and children.

Etymology

Genus:Philodendron (Schott, 1830), from Greek philo- “loving” + dendron “tree,” referencing its climbing habit.Hybrid name:× mandaianum marks the artificial cross; 'Ruby' is the cultivar selected for its dark red colouration.

Propagation and growth potential

  • Cuttings: stem cuttings with 1 – 2 nodes root readily in warm, humid conditions.
  • Medium: sphagnum moss or an airy aroid substrate ensures quick root development.
  • Indoor size: typically 80 – 150 cm when supported; leaves enlarge with age and pole growth.

Why add Philodendron × mandaianum 'Ruby' to your collection

With its striking red stems and dark burgundy foliage, this 2014 hybrid is a standout among climbing philodendrons. Easy-care and highly decorative, Philodendron × mandaianum 'Ruby' offers collectors both bold colour and reliable growth.

Mid.
Color: Light Purple
The chair is fine, and reasonably easy to put together. However, I've been using it for a little over a year and a half, and it's already falling apart. Random parts of it have fallen off, which is fine because it was still functional. But now the most frustrating part is that the wheels continue to pop off, and while the first attempts to pop them back on worked, they will not stay on now. This is obviously greatly impacting the stability, and I will need to purchase a replacement soon. For this price and lack of long-term durability, I would not buy again.

Alexa messed me up, but the company of the chair made it right!
Color: Light Purple, Color: Light Purple
I wanted something small with arms that moved out of the way when I wanted to slide my chair all the way into my desk for more space. This fit the bill. I loved the color blue and I had that in my cart for a bit. One day Alexa mentioned that an item that was in my cart was on sale. It was the chair. I let it be ordered. When it came it didn't exactly look blue to me. But I kept putting it together thinking maybe it was the lighting in the room I was assembling it in. I brought it to my craft room and lo and behold it is light purple. I looked at my order and sure enough it said light purple. Boo! I looked in my saved cart and the chair was gone. So I accepted it for an error. The next day I checked to see if I could return it. Thought I could, till I read that I would have to pay to return it. So I wrote the seller to tell them to ignore the return. And that was that. Till a couple days later I get an email from the seller asking if I would like a full refund or a replacement at no cost. I was like heck yeah send me the blue one. I was thrilled and I wanted to thank the seller for doing this without the return of the other chair. But I could not find a place to do that now. So here is where I will thank you. Thank you so much for doing this for me. You guys are AWESOME!. I love the chair and I love the blue color. I find it very comfortable, lite, easy to adjust, the size works great for me, and for the price the quality fits my needs. I do hope it lasts me for quite some time. Thanks again!

Awesome chair definitely recommend
Color: Blue, Color: Blue
It was amazing the color was spot on and it was very very easy to put together and the size is amazing for my 11 year old daughter maybe not for an older person it doesn’t recline as much as it says so if you want a reclining chair maybe I don’t recommend this chair but the quality is amazing and the adjustment capability is incredible the noise level is at 0 it is an amazing chair we just got it so I don’t know so much about the dupability so if you want this chair for a child or a tween maybe even a teen easy to put together beautiful blue color this is the chair for you.

Easy instructions, comfortable cushions
Color: Pink
I just put it together and I love it!!! It's so comfortable and it was easy to put together. You can rock it back and forth which helps your back. The seat is very wide and the cushion is thick. Pink is my favorite color, and this chair satisfies my pink obsession.

Wonderful chair
Color: Dark Black
I bought this office chair as a sewing tool, you might say. I felt that having an office chair on wheels would get me from the sewing machine to the ironing board and then to the cutting board and back to the sewing machine. I was having to get up and down to get around to all these places before and this saves me so much time and effort. I’m 71 so when the box came I was hesitant to try to bust into it and put it together but it went together so easily. It’s very comfortable and the lumbar support feels great on my low back. When I first sat down after the assembly process, the chair cushion tipped down in the front but after contacting the support team I was advised to tighten the tilt tension located under the chair and that fixed me right up! All and all, my chair is the perfect addition to my sewing area at a very affordable price. I couldn’t be happier!
