Philodendron Variegated Red Congo Tissue Culture

This culture pack includes 1 Philodendron Variegated Red Congotissue cultures. It comes in agar gel and is ready to acclimate to its new jungle.

Philodendron Variegated Red Congo is a striking, self-heading philodendron prized for its thick, glossy foliage and dramatic variegation. New leaves emerge in deep red and burgundy tones before maturing into a rich mix of green, cream, and soft yellow marbling, creating a powerful contrast that feels both bold and refined.

Unlike climbing philodendrons, Philodendron Variegated Red Congo maintains a compact, upright form with sturdy petioles and broad, paddle-shaped leaves. The combination of colorful new growth and unpredictable variegation makes every plant unique, while its structured growth habit keeps it clean and display-ready at all times.

This cultivar is ideal for collectors who want intense color without a moss pole. Given bright, indirect light and stable care, it continues to push vibrant, eye-catching foliage that only gets better with age.

Watch our step-by-step video instructions on ourHow To Acclimate Your Tissue Culture blog!

• Step 1- Do not do anything to the culture for 1-2 days to allow them to adjust to the temperature in their new environment
• Step 2- Open the package & wash the agar jelly off the plant as thoroughly as possible. We strongly recommend using running water. A small paint brush can be gently used to assist with the cleaning process. This is one of the most important steps of the process.
• Step 3- Plant your cultures in the medium of your choice. We recommend a chunky blend of coco husk & perlite. We utilize acclimation plugs although there are many great mediums available.
• Step 4- Place them into a clear sealed package (container or plastic bag). Within 24-hours your container will have water droplets forming, which will confirm the container is at 100% humidity.
• Step 5-Place under a grow lights for between 8 & 14 hours a day
• Step 6-Leave plants covered for the first 7 days. The following 7 to 10 days slowly expose plants to ambient air. Each day exposing the plants to slightly more air until fully acclimated.
