About

Philodendron hederaceum 'Aureum' is a golden-chartreuse colour form of the classic heartleaf philodendron, its thin, glossy leaves glowing a bright lemon-lime rather than the species' usual deep green. Brighter light intensifies the colour toward true yellow, while lower light shifts new growth back toward green, making its foliage colour a handy indicator of growing conditions. It shares the species' fast, easy-going trailing habit and tolerance of a wide range of indoor conditions, and remains one of the most accessible and forgiving Philodendrons for a hanging basket or shelf trail.
