Overview

Philodendron hederaceum 'Micans Lime' is a striking foliage plant grown for its soft, velvety leaves in fresh lime-green tones. This distinctive selection combines the luxurious texture associated with the Micans group with brighter foliage that brings a vibrant splash of colour to indoor plant displays.

Supplied in a P12 pot, it naturally develops long, flexible stems that can trail elegantly from shelves or hanging planters, or be trained upwards on a moss pole for a more upright display. Its adaptable growth habit makes it a versatile choice for a wide range of interiors.

Plant Details

Growing Guide

Place in bright, indirect light to maintain healthy foliage and compact growth. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight, which may scorch the leaves, while very low light can result in slower growth.

Water when the top few centimetres of compost feel dry, ensuring excess water drains away freely. An airy aroid compost helps maintain healthy roots while providing the moisture retention this plant enjoys.

Higher humidity encourages lush foliage, although this philodendron adapts well to typical indoor conditions. Feed with a balanced houseplant fertiliser during the growing season to support steady growth.

Indoor Placement

Ideal for bright living rooms, home offices, bedrooms and naturally lit bathrooms. Display on a shelf to allow the stems to trail, or provide a moss pole or support to encourage larger, more mature foliage.

Why We Love It

'Micans Lime' offers something a little different from traditional green philodendrons. Its soft, velvety leaves and vibrant lime colouring create an eye-catching display while retaining the reliable, easy-growing nature that makes philodendrons such popular houseplants.
