**Philodendron Red Anderson Care Tips:**

1. **Light:**

   - The Philodendron Red Anderson thrives in bright, indirect light. While it can tolerate lower light conditions, providing ample indirect light helps maintain its vibrant colors and promotes healthy growth. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves and cause color fading.

2. **Soil:**

   - Use a well-draining potting mix for the Philodendron Red Anderson. A combination of regular potting soil, perlite, and orchid bark ensures excellent drainage and aeration, promoting healthy root development and preventing root rot.

3. **Watering:**

   - Water thoroughly when the top 75% of soil feels dry to the touch, allowing excess water to drain freely from the pot. Reduce watering slightly in the winter months to prevent overwatering.

4. **Humidity:**

   - The Philodendron Red Anderson prefers high humidity levels. Increase humidity around the plant by misting the leaves regularly, placing a humidity tray nearby, or using a humidifier. Grouping plants together can also help maintain higher humidity levels.

5. **Temperature:**

   - Maintain average room temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). The Philodendron Red Anderson is sensitive to cold drafts and sudden temperature changes, so keep it away from air conditioning vents and open windows.

6. **Fertilization:**

   - Feed the Philodendron Red Anderson with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength every 4-6 weeks.

7. **Maintenance:**

   - Prune the plant to remove any yellowing or damaged leaves, which will help maintain its appearance and encourage healthy growth. Regularly clean the leaves to remove dust and keep the plant looking its best. Repotting every 1-2 years in fresh soil can help sustain healthy growth.
