So I bought this a a prince of orange when it was tiny, and Google is ID'ing it as a prince of orange. I just feel like the mature leaves are way too dark green and the new leaves are way too red to be a prince of orange. What say you?

Lol. Im mainly just following because I have the same plant with the same question.
Photo looks a bit dark. Can you bring closer to a light source, that window nearby? Looks a lot like the Prince of Orange I just got a few weeks ago. I’ve positioned it to get around 200 PPFD.
Still new to all this…perhaps yours wants more light to express vibrant orange colors. IMHO.

Yes have one of these myself. its looking healthy
Was it more orange when the leaf first unfurled? They start out really orange and then fade to a tannish orange (like yours) and then to green.
