Care & Tips
- The Philodendron
- hederaceum 'Brasil' is a variegated cultivar of the Heartleaf Philodendron, a versatile and hardy plant that can adapt to a wide range of indoor conditions. Its name 'Brasil' reflects the variegation pattern that resembles the Brazilian flag.
- Light: Provide your Philodendron 'Brasil' with bright, indirect sunlight. Too much direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, while too little light can cause leggy growth.
- Watering: Water the plant when the top inch of the soil feels dry to the touch. Philodendrons prefer a balance, avoiding both overwatering and drying out completely.-Feeding: Fertilize every month during the growing season with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer. Reduce feeding in the winter when plant growth naturally slows down.
