Burle Marx Philodendron Bio
Burle Marx Philodendron is easy to care for and easier to love - naturally getting its name from the Greek words philo - ‘love’ and dendron - ‘tree’. Hailing from Central America and the Caribbean, Burle Marx Philodendron holds a special place in the houseplant world, as it is named after the famous Brazilian architect Roberto Burle Marx - the first to include tropical plants in modern homes and landscapes.

Burle Marx Philodendron Care
During your Burle Marx Philodendron's first few days at home, one or two leaves might turn yellow or fall. This is a normal part of the adjustment, which can take up to a couple of weeks, and there is no cause for concern. Once adjusted, Burle Marx Philodendron is very easy to care for and will reward your love for it by quickly bouncing back from any mishap. To help it grow optimally and evenly, occasionally dust the leaves and rotate the pot by a ¼ turn once a month. To maintain its aesthetic shape and height, you may periodically prune it to your liking. To help it grow to its height, you may attach the leaves to a totem or moss pole and watch it grow tall.
