Lemon Lime Philodendron (Philodendron hederaceum 'Lemon Lime')
Lemon Lime Philodendron is an easy, fast-growing trailing plant that brings bright, fresh color to indoor spaces. Its vivid foliage instantly lifts shelves and hanging planters, and it stays forgiving if you miss a watering now and then. It adapts well to different light levels, making it a reliable choice for beginners and experienced plant owners alike. If you want a low-maintenance vine with upbeat color and steady growth, Lemon Lime Philodendron is a perfect fit.
Distinctive Features
This philodendron is prized for heart-shaped leaves in luminous chartreuse to yellow-green tones that create strong contrast against darker houseplants. It grows as a trailing to climbing vine, so you can let it cascade from a pot or train it up a small trellis for a more upright look. The plant responds well to pruning, which helps it branch and fill in for a fuller, more lush presentation. In brighter indirect light, the foliage tends to stay more vibrant, while lower light can lead to greener growth and longer spacing between leaves.
Growing Conditions
- Sun: Bright, indirect light is ideal for best color, and it tolerates medium to lower light with slower growth.
- Soil: Well-drained houseplant or aroid mix that holds some moisture but never stays soggy.
- Water: Water when the top 2 inches of soil dry, and do not let the pot sit in water.
- Humidity: Average home humidity is fine, and moderate humidity supports fuller growth and larger leaves.
- Growth Habit: Trailing to climbing vine with steady, easy growth and flexible styling options.
Ideal Uses
- Focal Point: Place in a hanging planter where bright vines can cascade and lighten the look of a room.
- Shelf Styling: Set on a high shelf and let stems trail over the edge for a relaxed, layered effect.
- Climbing Display: Train up a small trellis or pole to create a tidy, upright presentation.
- Beginner Houseplant: Use as an easy starter plant that stays colorful with simple care.
Low Maintenance Care
- Watering: Allow a partial dry-down between waterings, and reduce watering during slower winter growth.
- Pruning: Trim vines to shape and encourage branching, and root cuttings to thicken the pot.
- Feeding: Feed monthly in spring and summer with a balanced houseplant fertilizer at a moderate strength.
- Light Management: Keep in brighter indirect light to maintain the most vivid foliage color.
Why Choose Lemon Lime Philodendron?
- Bright Foliage Color: Chartreuse leaves add instant energy and contrast indoors.
- Fast, Easy Growth: Reliable vining habit fills in quickly with a simple routine.
- Flexible Styling: Trails from pots or climbs on support for different looks.
- Forgiving Care: Handles missed waterings and adapts to many indoor conditions.
Lemon Lime Philodendron is a great choice when you want a trailing plant that stays easy and consistently colorful. Give it bright, indirect light, well-drained soil, and watering after partial dry-down, and it will grow steadily and stay vibrant. As the vines lengthen, it creates a bright, cascading finish that makes any indoor space feel more alive.

Salivea works well
Size: 1 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Following throat radiation I had dry mouth. The dentist recommended Salivea. I apply it right before I go to bed. It worked well. This is the 2nd tube I have purchased.

This book may be life-changing!
Format: Paperback
This book gives an explanation of Bowen's family system theory. The first half of the book is heavy on the theory, and then the second half gets into a little bit of how to use it in real life. It doesn't read like a self-help book, and Gilbert gets props for not using words like "codependence" and other jingoistic psychobabbly words. She's completely blunt and realistic, and it's all well-written.
The basic theory is this: in order to have good relationships, you have to be a well-differentiated, individual self. This means that you have solid boundaries, and you can relate to other people without "lending and borrowing" the self, as Gilbert says. Or in my view, you can be friends with people without trying to become them or making them become you. Ironically, in order to work on being a differentiated self you have to do the work through your relationships. None of us are perfectly differentiated, so we can all improve our basic selves and our relationships. The less differentiated we are, the more anxiety in our relationships (because we get all tense about them), and the more they take on the following five postures, which can relieve anxiety in the short term but only mess things up more over time: conflict, distancing, triangling, under/over-functioning, and cut-off.
Probably the most important aspect of this theory is that undifferentiation and relationship postures are carried on from generation to generation. So it's not really your parents fault, but yes you learned it all from them, and they learned it from their parents, etc etc. Also your own level of differentiation and the postures you adopt in relationships are based on how you interacted with your entire family of origin, not just your parents. Gilbert stresses that in order to move up the scale of differentiation and have better relationships, we have to go back to our original families and work on our relationships there. This doesn't involve changing anyone else or acting like a therapist- all it involves is changing ourselves, and the way we relate to everyone else.
There is a lot more, I'm only scratching the surface here.
I am so glad I found this book, because it is convincing and explains everything clearly. I am motivated to try to work on myself, and I have some idea of how to proceed. Other books I've read on the subject were too barfy and jargony, or they touched on the surface of the issues without getting to the heart of the matter.

Superb!
Format: Paperback
This was my first read on Bowen Family Systems. I was pleasantly surprised at the value and relevance of the ideas. For example, that all intimate relationships produce some anxiety in the partners! We cope with that anxiety using behaviors which may cause excessive 'distancing' from our loved one.(Something of a push-pull going on here). Another simple idea is that keeping some type, any type, of connection (ie. avoiding a 'cut off') with members of our family of origin (brother, sister, parent, child) is vital to having good relationships with our chosen loved ones. I don't recall ever hearing that idea before. Unlike many psychological revelations, this one is fairly simple to assess in our own lives - just look at your family of origin and see what kind of relationships you have! Gilbert is realistic that big changes in ourselves are not likely, but even incremental small steps forward can have profound impact on our relationships. Gilbert is a very good writer, with occasional (rare?) understated humor, which makes the material easy to access for anyone interested enough to try. Highly recommended.

Loaded with Information
Format: Paperback
Roberta Gilbert's overview of Murray Bowen's Family Systems Theory is a thorough introduction on how we build individuality through constant interaction. Although it takes a few chapters to understand the terminology ("anxiety", "differentiation", etc.), Gilbert pieces together the general concepts of Bowen's theory through analytical study and real world interpretation. The idea of triangulating and the importance of original family relationships stand out to me as the overwhelmingly important activities which many people don't think twice about. This isn't to discount other aspects of relationships- such as Overfunctioning/underfunctioning, conflict, distance, and cutoff- but these certainly stand out due to the attention Gilbert gives to them.
The one point that I disagree with (although Bowen would say I am in denial) is the urge to put yourself on a different emotional in any and all connections. I understand the benefits to this, but the idea that I would detach and remain coolly above all interactions between those closest to me strikes me as depressing. I feel differentiation and togetherness (which he calls "fusion") do not have to be mutually exclusive. This critique is grounded in pure opinion. My critique from an analytical perspective centers on her ignorance, which could even be called contempt, of love in a relationship. Her rudimentary overview of love in relationships places it neatly in a box next to cutoff, triangulating, and other day-to-day activities. I don't see myself as a hopeless romantic, but the unique attributes of love is noted near unanimously. Viktor Frankl, a noted psychologist himself, wrote about it in his excellent book "Man's Search for Meaning".
Nevertheless, I recommend Extraordinary Relationships for those who really want to dig into ways of improving themselves and the relationships around them. Although the concepts might be a little narrow, the general Bowen Family Theory idea should not be ignored.

It was easy to read
Format: Paperback
This book is written so I can refer back to it from time to time. It was easy to read, not a lot of jargon. I am really enjoying reading this book, Extraordinary Relationships: A New Way of Thinking About Human Interactions by Roberta M. Gilbert, M.D. It kept my interest. It is only 168 pages, plus a few more pages that has reading notes, epilogue, a glossary, and of course the index. The book about developing yourself so that you can further develop your relationships. kudo to the author and her mentor.
