Product Description
A Beautiful, Easy-Care Trailing Houseplant
Philodendron Brasil (Philodendron hederaceum ‘Brasil’) is one of the most popular indoor plants thanks to its vibrant variegated foliage and forgiving nature. Its cascading vines feature heart-shaped leaves streaked with bright green and golden-yellow, making it a beautiful addition to homes, offices, apartments, and plant collections of every size.
Whether you allow it to trail naturally from a shelf or train it to climb a moss pole, Philodendron Brasil is an adaptable houseplant that grows beautifully with proper care.
What You’ll Receive
• One healthy Philodendron Brasil in a 4-inch nursery pot
• Fully rooted and shipped in soil
• Carefully selected from the current greenhouse batch shown in our listing photos and video
Because plants are living organisms, each one will naturally vary slightly in size, fullness, and variegation.
Why We Ship Rooted in Soil
Many online plant sellers ship bare root.
We ship every Philodendron Brasil rooted in its nursery pot to help:
• Reduce transplant shock
• Protect established roots
• Minimize stress during shipping
• Allow your plant to acclimate more quickly once it arrives
This gives your plant the best opportunity to settle into its new environment without the added stress of immediate repotting.
Care Guide
Light
Provide bright, indirect light for the best growth and vibrant variegation. While Philodendron Brasil tolerates medium light, brighter conditions help maintain its colorful foliage.
Water
Allow the top 2–3 inches of soil to dry before watering thoroughly. Avoid allowing the potting mix to remain consistently wet.
Soil
Use a chunky, well-draining houseplant mix containing ingredients such as perlite, orchid bark, or coco coir to improve drainage and root health.
Humidity
Enjoys moderate to higher humidity but adapts well to average household conditions.
Temperature
Ideal growing temperatures range from 65–85°F.
Protect from temperatures below 50°F.
Pet Safety
⚠️ Not pet safe.
Philodendron Brasil contains calcium oxalate crystals and should be kept out of reach of pets and small children.
Mature Growth
With proper care, Philodendron Brasil develops long cascading vines that can reach several feet in length indoors.
It can also be trained to climb a moss pole, where mature growth often produces larger leaves over time.
Shipping Information
Each plant is individually inspected before shipping.
We carefully package every order to minimize movement during transit and help your plant arrive healthy and ready to grow.
During colder months, we recommend adding a heat pack for orders traveling through freezing temperatures.

Product Questions
Do you accept returns or replacements?
Answer: We do not accept returns or send replacement plants. If your plant arrives significantly damaged, email emeraldhouseplants@gmail.com within 24 hours of the USPS tracking status changing to “Delivered.” Include your order number and photos of the plant and packaging. We review each claim individually and may offer a partial refund or, when the circumstances warrant it, a full refund of the affected plant’s price. A full refund is not automatic. [Read our full Return & Refund Policy.]
Will my plant look exactly like the photos and video?
Answer: You’ll receive the listed variety and pot size, selected from our current plants, but each plant varies in fullness, color, and variegation. Some listings include a clearly labeled mature-plant photo to show how the plant may look as it grows; it does not show the size you’ll receive.
When available, the batch video gives you the best look at the plants currently being selected for orders. We date these videos when possible, but plants continue to grow, so yours may be larger or look a little different by the time it ships. If a listing has no batch video, email emeraldhouseplants@gmail.com before ordering to request an updated look.
Shipping Questions
When will my order ship?
I usually ship within 2 business days, but please allow up to 5 business days for processing. Weekends and U.S. federal holidays do not count as business days. You’ll receive tracking when your order ships. If shipping is temporarily paused, the next shipping date will be posted on the website. [Read our Shipping Policy.]
How will my plant(s) ship?
Your plant ships rooted in soil in its nursery pot. We secure it inside a corrugated shipping box to reduce movement during transit.
What should I do when my plant arrives?
Answer: Unbox it promptly and check the plant and soil. If soil spilled but the plant is intact, gently return it to the pot. Check the soil before watering, and place the plant in light appropriate for its species. Give it time to adjust before repotting or fertilizing; repot when the plant needs it and is actively growing, rather than by a fixed season.
A little leaf damage can happen during shipping. If your plant arrives significantly damaged, email emeraldhouseplants@gmail.com within 24 hours of the USPS “Delivered” scan with your order number and photos of the plant and packaging.
