Looks more like an orange marmalade than a prince of orange 😉

Hi Tracey Lee, How can I tell for sure? I ordered it about 4 months ago as a Prince of Orange. I’m new to this and there are SO many different varieties of Philodendrons.

I agree, it looks like an orange marmalade. I had a Prince of Orange and the new leaves always came in more red and eventually turned green.

I bought two a few years ago that both ended up being marmalades. If you pull up images they are really not that similar. The marmalade has beautiful small streaks and the prince has solid colored leaves. 🥰🥰  
The first photo is a marmalade and the second is a prince. 💚💚

Thank you!

I concur. I have both Orange Mamalade and Prince of Orange, and yours look more like Orange Marmalade.
