Philodendron cordatum 'Brasil'
Philodendron hederaceum 'Brasil' (Variegated Heartleaf Philodendron) This vibrant variegated cultivar is a selection of Philodendron hederaceum, native to Central America and the Caribbean. In its natural tropical rainforest habitat, it grows as a climbing or trailing plant, using aerial roots to attach itself to tree trunks and reach for dappled light through the dense canopy. The sprawling vining plant grows in rainforests covering the forest floor or climbing up trees. 'Brasil' is distinguished by its glossy, heart-shaped leaves that feature a beautiful mix of green and yellow variegation, with a lime or golden streak running through the center surrounded by a rich green border. The pattern is somewhat random, making each leaf unique. This versatile plant can be trained to climb a moss pole or allowed to cascade gracefully from hanging baskets. One of the most beginner-friendly houseplants available, 'Brasil' is prized for its low-maintenance requirements and air-purifying qualities
