Philodendron ‘Quad Color’, also called Orange Marmalade, is a colorful tropical with speckled yellow and green leaves. The foliage emerges a bright orange color, before fading to bronzy gold and eventually green. This tropical is commonly grown indoors as a houseplant. Philodendrons are best grown in fertile, organic, acidic soil that is moist but never waterlogged. Allow the soil to mostly dry out between waterings. Fertilize monthly, more frequently in containers, and water regularly. Philodendrons prefer medium indoor light and do not take well to direct sunlight. Protect from freezing temperatures!
