So, this Brasil is one of my favorite plants and, until just last week, it was on the kitchen table and rotated daily. Thriving in every way, since I added the trellis. You can't really tell, but it went from a 12" hanging basket into a 14" pot with a trellis set into the middle. It is about 2' tall and 18" wide. It has been in this pot for about 4mos and, as I said, thriving..
The yellow leaves began opening about a week ago, just before having to move it up, on top of my plant shelf due to temp drops ( am in Texas, not much in the way of Winter here, typically until Feb)
Any who. Any theories on the curious leaves? Not even on a single vine.

I have a cutting that just started throwing leaves like this! Even paler, though, pure cream with a very faint green tinge. Something about the lighting change in the winter is my guess (edit: maybe cooler temps play a part as well?) but I’m super curious to hear what people think.
Have you checked the roots? My philodendrons brasil’s roots rot super easily if overwatered and then leaves turn yellow.
Edit – wait is it yellow or cream (same color as the middle of other leaves)? If it’s cream it’s definitely lack of sunlight. If it’s yellow check roots for rot.
