Description
The Philodendron Brasil, scientifically known as Philodendron hederaceum ‘Brasil’, is a stunning houseplant that brings a touch of tropical beauty to any space. With its heart-shaped leaves adorned with vibrant green and yellow variegation, the Philodendron Brasil is a true eye-catcher.
Here are the basic care instructions for a Philodendron Brasil:
- Light: Place your Philodendron Brasil in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate lower light conditions, but its variegation will be more pronounced and vibrant in brighter light. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.
- Watering: Water your Philodendron Brasil when the top 5-10cm of soil feels dry to the touch. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so it’s important to allow the soil to partially dry out between waterings.
- Fertilisation: Feed your Philodendron Brasil with a balanced, water-soluble fertiliser. Apply the fertiliser once a month during the growing season (spring and summer).
