Philodendron ‘Brazil’ – here’s an example of a sun bleached leaf (left): you can see a slight fade where there was once a deep green and any lighter variegation (the yellow parts) are almost white. It should be noted that this happened over several MONTHS of sitting in a partially blocked southern window: direct sun from sunrise to about noon, then bright indirect light as the sun gets blocked by a building in the afternoon. I chose this spot for the plant because I wanted it to grow lush and strong – not possible in a windowless corner and worth the risk of some sun bleaching (perhaps I should install a sheer curtain). Also, since this plant is at my church, I can only check up on it once a week. This makes watering tricky – I have to probe the soil to see how much of it is dry and water accordingly #philodendron #philodendronbrazil #houseplants #indoorplants #houseplantsofinstagram #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantsarefriends #plantlove #plantlife #plantsofinstagram #plantstagram #botanical #botany #greenery #foliage #leaflove #leaf #urbanjunglebloggers
