Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium 'Brasil'
Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium 'Brasil' is a green-and-lime heartleaf Philodendron with irregular yellow-green streaking through the leaf centre. The leaves are cordate at the base, pointed at the tip and arranged along long flexible stems that can trail, cascade or climb with support.
New growth can show reddish to orange tones on young stems and petioles before maturing greener. The leaf pattern varies naturally: some leaves carry a narrow central flash, while others show broader yellow-green sections across the midrib area.
Philodendron 'Brasil' lime flashes through dark green heart leaves
- Dark green heart-shaped leaves with irregular yellow-green to lime central variegation.
- Young stems and petioles can show reddish to orange tones before maturing greener.
- Elongated leaf tips give the foliage a sharper outline.
- Irregular central streaking varies naturally from leaf to leaf.
- Multiple rooted stems in one pot create a fuller cascade of patterned leaves.
Philodendron 'Brasil' as a Holambra selection
Philodendron 'Brasil' was selected in Holambra, Brazil, in 1991 from a naturally occurring mutation of a heartleaf Philodendron. Its green and yellow-green variegated leaves, elongated tips and reddish young stems define the cultivar.
The vine branches from nodes after pruning and can become dense when several cuttings are grown together. A vine that repeatedly produces plain green leaves can be cut back to a stronger patterned node to keep the leaf pattern balanced.
Growing Philodendron 'Brasil' with clear colour and tight internodes
- Light: Give bright indirect light for shorter internodes; hot direct sun can scorch pale sections of the leaves.
- Watering: Let the upper 25–35% of the mix dry before watering again, then drain the pot fully so the fleshy roots do not sit wet.
- Substrate: Use a chunky aroid mix with bark, perlite or pumice and a modest moisture-holding component.
- Temperature: Keep it warm, preferably 18–27°C, with no cold draughts around hanging baskets or shelves.
- Humidity: Moderate humidity is enough for routine growth; steadier humidity can help fast-growing vines unfurl with fewer curled tips.
- Training: A pole or trellis gives older stems contact and can encourage larger, neater leaves on established growth.
- Pruning: Trim long bare vines above a node to encourage branching and use the cuttings for propagation.
- Fertilizing: Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced fertiliser diluted below full strength.
- Repotting: Repot when the roots have filled the container or watering dries the mix unusually quickly.
- Propagation: Stem cuttings root readily when each cutting includes at least one node and a healthy leaf.
- Mineral substrates: It can adapt to airy semi-hydro or mineral substrates if the roots are transitioned gradually and kept oxygenated.
Philodendron 'Brasil' green reversions, scorch and pests
- Plain green sections: Cut back repeated green growth to a patterned node to keep the variegation balanced.
- Scorched pale areas: Move the plant away from direct sun; pale tissue can mark quickly in hot light.
- Yellow lower leaves: Check whether the pot has stayed wet too long, especially in cooler months or dense soil.
- Thin, stretched vines: Increase indirect light or give the stems support so the leaves sit closer together.
- Sticky residue or distorted tips: Inspect new growth and stem nodes for thrips, spider mites, mealybugs and scale before they spread along the vine.
Philodendron 'Brasil' pet safety
Philodendron 'Brasil' is not pet-safe if eaten. Its tissues contain insoluble calcium oxalate crystals, which can irritate the mouth and digestive tract, so place it out of reach of pets that bite leaves or stems.
Philodendron 'Brasil' published name and Holambra cultivar origin
The botanical background sits under Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium, published as Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium (Schott) Croat in World Checklist and Bibliography of Araceae in 2002. The variety is based on the earlier name Philodendron oxycardium Schott. Philodendron means tree-loving, hederaceum refers to ivy-like growth, and oxycardium describes the sharply heart-shaped leaf blade. The cultivar Philodendron 'Brasil' was selected in Holambra, Brazil, from a naturally occurring variegated mutation and is grown for its lime-yellow central patterning and reddish young growth.
Philodendron 'Brasil' brings fast heartleaf growth, flexible trailing stems and lime-patterned leaves that vary naturally from node to node.

Just ok - too thick to apply evenly
Style: SPF 50, Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Just ok - very thick, so difficult to apply evenly. I use this for outdoor cycling and it works, but it's so thick that it tends to clump instead of smoothly covering the skin.

Best Moisturizer & Clears ECZEMA FAST! TIPS & BONUS USES
Size: 11 Ounce (Pack of 1)
After wasting money on many supermarket and expensive brands, this is the only one that really works!
I don't have eczema, but another friend does, who first told me about this product.
I do have dry skin, though, whenever I over wash my hands due to chores, repairs or taking care of family, and the dry indoor heat or coldness of winter weather.
My friend with eczema swears by this. She's tried other brands and even prescriptions, which have side effects (steroids thin the skin and is bad for your immunity).
When her skin had cracks or is itchy, she applies it, and it heals up within a few days.
She uses it also as maintenance daily, to prevent future outbreaks or skin cracking.
There's the regular "Aveeno Eczema Therapy" in a tube, but it stings at first if you have any cracks in the skin, which subsides after a few minutes, but it works faster with sealing up cracks.
I love this product because it's very rich, but not too greasy.
It doesn't sting if you have skin cracks, and is gentler and still works well, but it takes a little bit longer.
It's even more effective than the regular "Aveeno Baby Eczema Care" creme in a tube.
I prefer jars because there's always some product left in a tube.
You can't squeeze out what's left at the bottom, and have to cut the tube apart to get at it.
AMAZON HAS THE BEST PRICE, that I've seen online or off.
It's also available in the Baby Section only at stores like supermarkets, pharmacies, etc., but this is the lowest price.
SUBSCRIBE, and you can save even more.
DO NOT BUY ANY GENERICS! They don't work!
I've tried buying them, since it looked like they had the same ingredients, and costs less,
but they are simply not efficacious.
USE WATER TO KEEP MOISTURE IN:
Surprisingly enough, it's not the moisturizer per se that keeps your skin hydrated, it's water.
For example, think of a grape (full, plump with water, juicy), versus a prune (a dried out grape).
Moisturizer provides a physical barrier to keep your skin hydrated.
Of course, a moisturizer's ingredients can also make it a superior or inferior product.
The Aveeno Eczema line has colloidal oatmeal, which is soothing, and healing to the skin.
HOW TO USE WATER WITH MOISTURIZER:
Wet the application areas with water first (I run my hands lightly under the tap), so the product will absorb faster (water hydrates when mixed with moisturizer), and it won't be greasy.
Your skin will feel non-greasy, and not wet within a few minutes.
Use a paper towel or tissues to lightly wipe off the excess, and you can use your hands right away.
I find that this method keeps my skin hydrated more effectively and longer.
YOU'LL USE LESS CREAM WITH WATER:
I use only a tablespoon size, and spread it all over my hands, and along my forearms and elbows.
Water thins and spreads out the cream more easily.
You can use it on DRY, CRACKED FEET, too.
Apply it throughout the day after you wash your hands and before bed, and you'll never get dry skin or eczema outbreaks again! (Per me and my circle of friends).
BUY SEVERAL JARS, and scatter around them the house, like the bathrooms, kitchen, work areas, etc.
BONUS USES:
1. INSECT BITES:
A friend reported that it even works in a pinch to help alleviate bug bites that she's gotten (fleas from animal rescue, mosquitoes, etc).
Wash the area or use an alcoholic sanitizer or baby wipes to clean the bite area first.
Then spread on Aveeno, if you don't have an antihistamine topical product handy.
ALOE VERA GEL FROM THE PLANT also has miraculous healing powers with insect bites, burns,
skin rashes, etc.
You just cut a small piece at an angle, open it up with scissors along the leaf's seam, and apply the gel.
You can wrap a bandage or strip of clean cloth lightly over the area to keep the gel in place, if you want.
The cut plant area will close by itself within a day. Aloe vera is sold cheap at supermarkets, nurseries, etc.,
at under $10.
The gel feels cool and soothing to the skin. The plant is superior to any packaged product.
DO NOT SCRATCH THE ITCH!
IF YOU IGNORE IT, IT'LL DISAPPEAR by itself within a few hours.
Trust me, it really works with mosquito bites. I used to itch for days, until I stopped scratching it.
Distract yourself by watching tv, reading or using your cell to ignore the itch, and just lightly apply
your best anti-itch remedy (DO NOT RUB or you'll stimulate the histamines from the bite).
Anytime that you're tempted to scratch, apply your remedy instead.
THE BEST THINGS TO STOP ITCHING FAST (In order of effectiveness) are:
1) Anti-histamine topical product
2) Aloe vera gel from the plant (also heals the skin)
3) Aveeno creme (also heals the skin)
4) Alcoholic rub
2. SKIN RASHES:
A friend of mine said she was by herself with the baby one day, stuck with no car and husband away, when the diaper creme had run out in the evening.
She applied Aveeno several times, and the rash disappeared the next morning.
Another friend used Aveeno for a strange rash that showed up on her arm when she accidentally brushed against some plants when hiking, and it disappeared within a few hours. She washed the area first, then applied the cream.
Of course, it's best to use a product designed for rashes, especially for babies.
And get any mysterious rash checked out by a doctor.
Btw, I don't get compensated for any of my reviews.
I wanted to give a recommendation for a fantastic moisturizer that I've been using for several years.

Must have for travel - TSA approved size
Size: 1 Ounce (Pack of 1)
As an adult who has dealt with eczema on and off for years, I originally bought Aveeno Baby Eczema Therapy Nighttime Moisturizing Balm for travel, but it has honestly become a staple in my routine.
First, the texture is rich and balm-like, yet it does not feel greasy or heavy on the skin. It melts in nicely and creates a protective barrier that actually lasts overnight. I use it on dry patches around my hands, elbows, and sometimes on irritated areas during flare-ups. By morning, the redness and itching feel noticeably calmer.
I really appreciate that it contains colloidal oatmeal and ceramide. The oatmeal gives almost instant soothing relief when my skin feels inflamed, and the ceramide helps lock in moisture so my skin does not dry out again within a few hours. It is fragrance-free, which is a must for my sensitive skin. No stinging, no strong scent, and no irritation.
Even though it is marketed for babies, it works just as well for adult eczema. The 1 oz travel size is perfect for keeping in a purse or carry-on, especially during colder months when dry air makes everything worse.
If you are an adult with mild to moderate eczema or stubborn dry patches, this is absolutely worth trying. It is a small container, but a little goes a long way. I will definitely be repurchasing, and next time I will likely go for the full size.

Really helps soothe baby eczema overnight
Size: 11 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This balm worked very well for my baby’s eczema, especially when used at night. It’s thick and moisturizing but not greasy, and it absorbs nicely into the skin. After a few nights of use, I noticed less redness, dryness, and scratching, and my baby seemed more comfortable sleeping.
It’s fragrance-free and gentle, which is very important for sensitive baby skin. A little goes a long way, so the jar lasts a good amount of time. If your baby has dry or eczema-prone skin, this is definitely worth trying.
