Philodendron Goeldi Variegated

The Mint Goeldii Philodendron, scientifically known as Philodendron goeldii ‘Mint’, is a plant species native to Brazil. It is named after the Brazilian botanist Adolpho Ducke who discovered it in the Amazon rainforest in the early 20th century. The name “Goeldii” is in honor of Emil August Goeldi, a Swiss-Brazilian naturalist and zoologist. This plant is characterized by its unique, palm-like leaves that spiral around the central stem, giving it an attractive, architectural appearance. The ‘Mint’ variety is named for its light green, almost minty coloring.
