The Philodendron Pink Princess is an absolutely stunning, and very rare houseplant with beautiful pink variegation on dark green-black leaves. Known for their variegation, Pink Princesses produce dark, almost black leaves which fade to a lighter green - maintaining that famous pink variegation. You'll want to give this plant as much indirect light as possible and a moss pole to climb on as it grows. Note that the plant's pink variegation will vary from leaf to leaf and is minor on some plants.
