Philodendron 'Strawberry Shake' – Vibrant Variegated Climber
Philodendron 'Strawberry Shake', also known as Philodendron 'Red Emerald' Variegata, is a rare and highly sought-after cultivar of Philodendron erubescens. Its striking, multicolored foliage displays a captivating mix of green, cream, yellow, and pink hues, making it a true collector's plant. This fast-growing climber thrives when provided with proper support, such as a moss pole, encouraging larger and more dramatic leaves.
Key Features of Philodendron 'Strawberry Shake'
- Variegated Foliage: Each leaf showcases a unique combination of colors, ranging from green to shades of pink, red, and yellow.
- Climbing Growth: Develops aerial roots that help it climb, making it ideal for moss poles or trellises.
- Dynamic Color Changes: Variegation evolves with age, with new leaves often emerging in shades of red or orange before maturing.
- Rare and Collectible: Highly sought after among plant collectors due to its stunning color variation.
Essential Information About Philodendron 'Strawberry Shake'
- Native Habitat: A cultivated variety derived from Philodendron erubescens, originally from Central and South America.
- Indoor Growth Potential: Can reach up to 1.5 meters (5 feet) when given proper support.
- Growth Rate: Moderate to fast-growing under ideal conditions.
- Toxicity: Contains calcium oxalate crystals, making it toxic if ingested by pets or humans.
How to Care for Philodendron 'Strawberry Shake'
- Lighting Needs: Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain strong variegation. Avoid prolonged direct sun exposure.
- Watering Schedule: Allow the top 2-3 cm of soil to dry before rewatering. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
- Humidity Preferences: Thrives in high humidity (60%+). Using a humidifier or grouping with other plants can enhance growth.
- Temperature Range: Best kept between 18-27°C. Protect from cold drafts and sudden temperature fluctuations.
- Soil Composition: Requires a well-draining mix with peat, perlite, and orchid bark for aeration.
- Repotting and Support: Repot every 1-2 years. Provide a moss pole to encourage mature leaf formation.
- Fertilization: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 2-4 weeks during active growth.
- Propagation: Easily propagated from stem cuttings. Cut below a node and root in water or sphagnum moss.
- Pruning and Maintenance: Remove leggy or damaged leaves to encourage bushier growth.
- Hydroponic Growth: Can adapt to semi-hydroponic setups like LECA if properly acclimated.
Common Issues and Solutions
- Pest Management: Susceptible to spider mites, thrips, and mealybugs. Regularly inspect and treat with neem oil if needed.
- Overwatering Risks: Yellowing leaves often indicate excess moisture – ensure well-draining soil and proper airflow.
- Variegation Fading: If new leaves emerge with less variegation, increase light exposure while avoiding direct sun.
Additional Growing Tips
Understanding the natural habitat of Philodendron 'Strawberry Shake' helps ensure proper care. While it is a cultivated hybrid, its parent species thrives in tropical rainforests, climbing tree trunks in humid conditions. By providing indirect light, warmth, and consistent moisture, you can replicate these conditions indoors for optimal growth.

Good for night sessions
Size: Medium, Pattern Name: Pack of 1
Picked this up for evening fetch sessions and it’s been a win. It charges up fast, couple minutes under a lamp or in sunlight and it’s good to go, and the glow is genuinely bright, not the sad dim purple some of these put out. Makes it way easier to find in the yard at dusk, and the dog can actually track it.
It’s a little on the softer side compared to a regular tennis ball, but durable enough to hold up to my big dog, who is not gentle with toys. Still kicking after plenty of chomping and slobber. Fits a standard Chuckit! launcher perfectly, which is the whole point.
Pros:
• Glows brightly and clearly in the dark
• Charges fast from any light source
• Holds up well even with a big, enthusiastic chewer
• Fits standard ball-throwing sticks
• Great for evening or early-morning fetch
Cons:
• A bit softer than a regular tennis ball — a determined power-chewer could probably destroy it eventually
• Glow fades after a while, so you’ll need to recharge it during long sessions
• Only glows if it’s been charged, which is obvious but easy to forget
Tips:
• Charge it under a bright light or in the sun for a few minutes before heading out
• A flashlight works in a pinch if you forgot to charge it
• Keep it out of permanent fetch duty — rotate with a regular ball so it lasts longer
• Not a chew toy, even though it’s tempting to leave it with the dog
Five stars. If you’ve got a dog and a yard, this makes evening fetch actually doable.

Westies Fav
Size: Small, Pattern Name: Pack of 1
Best Westie ball ever, my dog loves this ball. Exactly her size! 3" tennis balls are too big & she rips the fur off. this silicone-ish ball has no fur & is 2&1/2 "
We have 2" balls from her electronic ball laucher, but she still loves this glow in the dark best!

Best dog ball in the world!
Size: Large, Pattern Name: Pack of 1, Size: Large, Pattern Name: Pack of 1
My dog is singularly obsessed with playing ball. He would drop a steak to chase a ball. (He'd return to the steak, but not without the retrieved ball. He's not an idiot.) He makes dangerous leaps, crashes into trees, and runs fast enough to catch thrown balls before they even hit the ground. Since he doesn't care about his own wellbeing, it's my job to protect him as much as I can. And a lot of balls are hard enough to cause him pain or dental damage when he mistimes a catch. Enter the ChuckIt Glow Ball!
The minute Cowboy got his first Glow Ball, he no longer had any interest in the dozens of tennis balls scattered around the house and yard. If I took the Glow Ball away and instead threw a tennis ball, Cowboy would run to retrieve the ball, then return without it and begin looking all over the house for the Glow Ball. The Glow Ball is tough enough to survive Cowboy's big, sharp chompers, yet it's soft enough to do no harm when it hits him in the face. The glow feature is a huge bonus, too. Cowboy gets distracted by chipmunks and squirrels when we're playing, so he sometimes can't remember where he dropped the ball to pursue the interloper. If the ball was exposed to enough light before it was misplaced, it will be easy to find once the sun goes down. (Otherwise, Cowboy always finds it eventually.) When I'm feeling nocturnal, I'll put the ball under a light for a few minutes to activate the electrons, then treat my boy to a middle-of-the-night game of fetch.
I was so happy to see these on sale, I bought a lifetime supply for my pantry. The size guide seems accurate. ChuckIt recommended the large size for a dog of Cowboy's weight and that size is perfect. Highly recommended product.

Perfect toy for an active dog!
Color: Large size (7.9")
My dog absolutely loves this ball with handles! It’s quickly become one of his favorite toys, and he gets excited every time we bring it out to play.
The vibrant colors are a huge plus—they make it super easy to spot in the grass, which saves a lot of time during outdoor play sessions. The handles are great for interactive play too, especially for tugging and tossing.
I’m really impressed with how well it’s holding up. Even with constant pulling, tugging, and rough use, it’s remained durable and hasn’t shown any signs of wearing out.
Overall, I’m very happy with this purchase—and if my dog could write reviews, it would definitely get his paw stamp of approval! 🐾

Not for strong chewers!
Color: Large size (7.9")
I have an English Springer Spaniel who is 1.5 yrs. She had this torn apart within the first 5 minutes. This is not for strong chewers!
