Philodendron Scandens ‘Brasil’
Description:
The Philodendron Scandens ‘Brasil’ is a striking variety of the heartleaf philodendron, known for its vibrant green and golden-yellow variegated leaves that resemble brushstrokes of paint. Its trailing vines and low-maintenance nature make it a popular choice for shelves, hanging baskets, or creating a lush, cascading effect in your indoor space. A must-have for plant lovers seeking bold colour and effortless style.
Fun Fact:
Native to tropical regions of Central and South America, the ‘Brasil’ variety gets its name from its foliage’s resemblance to the Brazilian flag’s colours. It’s also a fantastic air purifier, making it both beautiful and beneficial for your home.
Care Guide:
• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its vivid variegation, but it can tolerate low-light settings. Avoid direct sunlight, which may scorch the leaves.
• Watering: Water when the top 2-3cm of soil feels dry. Be cautious not to overwater, as this plant dislikes soggy roots.
• Humidity: Thrives in moderate to high humidity. Misting or a humidifier can help during drier months.
• Temperature: Ideal temperatures range from 18-27°C. Avoid exposure to cold drafts or temperatures below 13°C.
• Soil: Best grown in a well-draining, peat-based potting mix.
• Feeding: Feed every 4-6 weeks during the growing season with a balanced liquid fertiliser.
