Philodendron Hederaceum Brasil is a wild and bold cultivar of the classic Heartleaf Philodendron. Its variegated leaves look almost painted, with strokes of yellow and lime green across the deep green foliage. As if that weren't tropical enough, the stems have pinkish orange hue. Like its cousin, the standard green Heartleaf Philodendron, Philodendron 'Brasil' is incredibly forgiving and will tolerate all kinds of neglect including low light, poor soil, and inconsistent watering. This is a great first-time houseplant or gift for anyone who wants to enjoy the natural beauty of plants without a lot of maintenance.

Sun: Indirect

They do not need to see the sun directly. But filtered sunlight through glass is fine.

Light: Low

They thrive in low to medium light environment.

Water: Every 1 week

They need to be watered when the first 1 - 2 inches of soil is dry. That usually takes about 1 week in an average home environment. It may vary depends on your environment and light condition, but it's always safer to underwater or give the soil a check before you do the watering.

Humidity: Any

They can live in any humidity condition, but higher humidity encourages larger leaves.

Care Tips

Yellow leaves may indicate overwatering, while brown leaves mean the plant needs more water. If you wish to propagate, take stem tip cuttings during the Spring or early Summer and place the stem in water or moist soil and they should root quite easily.

What to Expect

The plant comes with a default nursery pot. Washable Paper Planter Bags are sold separately.
