Philodendron cruentum

Philodendron cruentum, the redleaf, is a species of flowering plant in the family Araceae, native to Peru.[1][2] A climber, it has striking red markings on its leaves.[3] It is currently only found in the collections of aroid enthusiasts, but is attractive, easy to care for, and has the potential to become a better-known houseplant.[3][4]
