The Philodendron Brasil is a popular houseplant known for its heart-shaped leaves with striking yellow-green variegation, giving it a vibrant, tropical appearance. An interesting characteristic of the Philodendron Brasil is its easy-to-care-for nature, making it a great choice for both beginners and experienced plant enthusiasts. Its trailing vines are perfect for hanging baskets or cascading over shelves.
The Philodendron Brasil can grow to a length of 6 to 10 feet when allowed to trail, but it can be pruned to maintain a more compact size. It thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate low light conditions as well. The plant is not frost-tolerant and should be kept indoors or protected from temperatures below 50°F. Philodendron Brasil prefers well-drained soil and should be watered when the top inch of soil feels dry, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings to prevent overwatering and root rot.
