HD 154556, also known as HR 6357, is a solitary orange-hued star located in the southern circumpolar constellation Apus. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.21,[2] placing it near the limit for naked eye visibility. The star is located relatively close at a distance of 228 light years based on Gaia DR3 parallax measurements,[1] but it is drifter closer with a heliocentric radial velocity of −24 km/s.[5] At its current distance, HD 154556's brightness is diminished by 0.26 magnitudes due to interstellar dust.[14] It has an absolute magnitude of +2.10.[6]

HD 154556 has a stellar classification of K1 IV CN3,[3] indicating that it is an evolved K-type subgiant with a moderate abundance of cyano radicals in its spectrum, making it a CN star. It has 1.25 times the mass of the Sun[7] and is calculated to be 3.52 billion years old,[1] having expanded to 6.35 times the radius of the Sun.[8] It now radiates 19.7 times the luminosity of the Sun[1] from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,677 K.[10] It has a near solar metallicity[9] and spins slowly with a projected rotational velocity lower than 1 km/s.[11]
