About This Botanical
The Philodendron Brasil (Philodendron hederaceum 'Brasil'), offered in 4" and 6" nursery pots, features deep green heart-shaped leaves painted with electric lime and gold central brushstrokes. This vigorous trailing vine brings dynamic color to hanging planters and tabletops.
How to Care for Philodendron Brasil: Provide bright, indirect light to keep its vivid variegation prominent; lower light may cause new leaves to emerge solid green. Water thoroughly once the top 1–2 inches of soil dry out. When repotting, transfer into an aerated potting mix with perlite for healthy drainage.
Identification: Unlike pothos, Brasil features thinner foliage and papery cataphylls, set apart by a striking lime-yellow center stripe.
Pet Safety: Contains insoluble calcium oxalates; toxic to cats and dogs if chewed.
