Description
The Philodendron Burle Marx is a bold tropical plant loved for its lush, heart-shaped green leaves and naturally spreading growth. At approximately 3.5–4 feet in height with a 2.5-foot-wide spread, this larger specimen instantly transforms any space into a green sanctuary.
Known for its elegant, elongated foliage with a glossy surface, this plant has a soft, architectural presence. Whether styled in corners, beside furniture, or near entryways, it adds a refined, natural touch without looking messy or overgrown.
Despite its impressive size, the Burle Marx variety is surprisingly low-maintenance. It thrives in filtered sunlight and adapts well to indoor conditions, especially in bright apartments, balconies with partial shade, or well-lit rooms. It also improves indoor air quality — making it both beautiful and functional.
