Philodendron 'Cherry red' is a self-heading hybrid with broad ovate leaves which have a beautiful cinnamon to deep red colour when juvenile that fades to deep green as they mature.
From the Modern Latin genus name Philodendron (Schott, 1830), from Greek philodendron, neuter of philodendros "loving trees," from philo- "loving" (see philo-) + dendron "tree" (from PIE *der-drew-, from root *deru- "to be firm, solid, steadfast," also forming words for "wood, tree"). The plant so called because it clings to trees.
