Philodendron hederaceum ‘Lime’ (‘Neon’)

Philodendron hederaceum ‘Lime’ (‘Neon’) is a bright chartreuse heartleaf Philodendron with slim vining stems and vivid yellow-green leaves. New growth opens in fresh lime tones, then matures into softer green.

The leaves are heart-shaped, with a cordate base, pointed tip and smooth surface. Young plants usually make smaller leaves on longer, flexible vines; stems given a pole, plank or trellis can sit flatter and size up more evenly as aerial roots find contact.

Chartreuse heart leaves on slim vining stems

  • Young leaves open bright lime before maturing into softer green.
  • Slender stems can trail from a pot or be guided upward on a pole, plank or trellis.
  • Heart-shaped leaves stay thin, soft and flexible on the vine.
  • Visible nodes make pruning and stem cuttings straightforward.
  • Several rooted cuttings in one pot give the vine denser early growth.

Compact early growth and climbing behaviour

Philodendron hederaceum belongs to Araceae, the aroid family. The species is native from Mexico through Tropical America and grows as an epiphyte in the wet tropical biome, where stems can attach to tree trunks and continue upward through humid forest vegetation.

Indoors, aerial-root nubs can grip a pole, plank or trellis, helping the vine hold position and keep leaves closer together. While the stems are short, ‘Lime’ (‘Neon’) stays neat in a smaller pot; as the vines lengthen, rotate the pot occasionally for even growth and prune stretched stems above a node to encourage new side shoots.

Keeping Philodendron ‘Lime’ bright and evenly spaced

  • Light: Give bright indirect light for compact growth; harsh direct sun can mark the thinner leaves.
  • Watering: Water when the upper part of the mix has dried and the pot feels lighter; the fleshy roots dislike staying wet in dense soil.
  • Substrate: Use an airy aroid mix with bark, perlite or pumice and a moisture-holding base so oxygen reaches the roots between waterings.
  • Temperature: Keep it warm, ideally above 18 °C, and avoid cold windowsills or draughty shelves.
  • Humidity: Moderate indoor humidity is usually suitable; steadier humidity can help new leaves open cleanly on longer vines.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots have filled the pot, using a container with drainage and only a modest size increase.
  • Fertilizing: Feed lightly during active growth; excess fertilizer can stress the root zone and mark soft new growth.
  • Propagation: Stem cuttings root from nodes, especially when each cutting has at least one healthy leaf and one visible node.
  • Semi-hydroponics: The plant can adapt to inert or mineral substrates if roots are transitioned carefully and kept oxygenated.
  • Placement: Place it where vines have room to trail or climb, away from harsh direct sun and cold air movement.
  • Training and pruning: Pinch or cut above a node to encourage side shoots; guide selected vines upward if larger, flatter leaves are preferred.
  • Growth rate: Growth is usually moderate to fast in warmth, bright indirect light and a loose, evenly managed root zone.

Lime leaves, long internodes and root-zone checks

  • Long gaps between leaves: Usually caused by low light or unsupported trailing stems; move the plant brighter or train the vine upward.
  • Soft yellowing leaves: Check for a wet lower pot and compacted mix before watering again.
  • Brown patches on lime leaves: Direct sun, dry roots or fertilizer buildup can show quickly on pale tissue; flush the mix and adjust placement.
  • Small new leaves: Check root health, warmth and whether older vines need pruning or climbing support.
  • Pests on new tips: Inspect the soft new growth and petiole bases for thrips, mealybugs or mites if leaves emerge distorted.

Safety

Philodendron hederaceum ‘Lime’ (‘Neon’) contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals. Keep it away from pets that chew plants, and wash hands after pruning if the sap contacts sensitive skin.

Botanical name and lime form

Philodendron hederaceum was published by Heinrich Wilhelm Schott as Philodendron hederaceum (Jacq.) Schott in Wiener Zeitschrift für Kunst, Litteratur, Theater und Mode 1829(3): 780, published 6 August 1829. Philodendron comes from Greek roots for tree-loving growth, and hederaceum comes from Latin for ivy-like, matching the species’ climbing stems.

Philodendron hederaceum ‘Lime’ (‘Neon’) brings vivid chartreuse heart leaves to a flexible vine that can stay compact when young, trail softly from a pot or climb into broader, more mature growth.

Didn't last
Size: 12"
I bought the chicken, the duck, the frog and a couple hedgehogs of these. They're very cute and my puppy loves them, but goes through them very fast. She chews holes in the body pretty quickly and starts removing the stuffing. I tried sewing the holes, but finally gave up. It's a losing battle.

Love the crazy giggle
Size: 12"
Entertaining toy for my husky but he's so rough and tough that he torn the cover off and manages to turn the giggle sound off. He really enjoys it still though.

Size: 12"
My guy loves the duck. At first the "different" sound put him off a bit but soon he was throwing his new toy all over the house. The reason I gave 4 stars is because my 8 lb. pup managed to undo the ducks braided legs and now they are nothing but a bunch of strings hanging from its body. Other than that he enjoys this toy immensely.

Great toy...
Size: 12"
My dog LOVES this toy! It's very durable as he loves to throw it around. It was bigger than I expected, but my little shih Tzu still loves it.
