Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium
Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium is a green heartleaf Philodendron with slim flexible vines and glossy cordate leaves that taper to a pointed tip. The stems can trail from a hanging pot, extend along a surface or climb when aerial roots find support.
The leaves are usually medium to dark green, cordate at the base and pointed at the tip. Young plants make smaller leaves on loose stems, while older vines can produce broader leaves when warmth, root health and upward growth stay steady.
Glossy pointed leaves on flexible green vines
- Glossy green leaves with a cordate base and pointed tip.
- Flexible stems can trail, cascade or climb when given a pole, plank or trellis.
- Long vines can be shortened above a node to encourage side shoots.
- Visible nodes make stem cuttings and pruning cuts easy to place.
- Several cuttings in one pot can produce denser growth from the base.
From juvenile heart leaves to broader climbing foliage
Philodendron hederaceum is an epiphytic climber in Araceae, the aroid family, with a broad native range from Mexico through Tropical America. Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium is native from Mexico to Honduras and grows as a climber in the wet tropical biome.
Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium has glossy green leaves, pointed tips and flexible vining stems. The epithet oxycardium refers to the pointed heart shape of the leaf blade.
Steady care for green heartleaf Philodendron
- Light: Place in bright indirect light for tighter internodes; it tolerates softer light but may grow longer, thinner vines.
- Substrate: A loose aroid mix gives the fleshy roots oxygen and reduces the risk of wet-root yellowing.
- Watering: Water when the upper mix has dried, then let excess water leave the pot completely.
- Temperature: Keep above 18 °C for steady growth and avoid cold glass or draughts.
- Humidity: Moderate indoor humidity is usually suitable, but very dry air can make new tips smaller or slower to open.
- 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 with a balanced houseplant fertiliser; steady green vines do not need heavy feeding.
- 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 the vines have room to trail or climb, away from cold air movement and harsh direct sun.
- Climbing setup: A pole, plank or trellis lets the stems climb and can encourage broader leaves on established vines.
- Maintenance: Cut long stems above a node to encourage new side shoots; rooted cuttings can be planted back into the pot for denser growth.
- Growth rate: Growth is usually moderate to fast in warmth, bright indirect light and a loose, evenly managed root zone.
Bare stems, yellow leaves and node pests
- Leggy growth: Usually linked to low light or long unsupported stems; prune and move to brighter indirect light.
- Yellow leaves near the base: Check for overwatering, blocked drainage or old compacted substrate.
- Small leaves on older vines: Add support or prune back to a stronger node if trailing stems have become too long.
- Brown tips: Look at watering consistency, salt buildup and dry air before changing several conditions at once.
- Pest clusters at nodes: Inspect under leaves and along stems, especially where vines overlap in a dense hanging pot.
Safety
This heartleaf Philodendron contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals. Keep it away from pets that chew plants and avoid touching your eyes after pruning or handling cut stems.
Published variety and pointed leaf name
Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium was published as Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium (Schott) Croat in World Checklist and Bibliography of Araceae in 2002. The variety is based on the earlier name Philodendron oxycardium Schott. Philodendron comes from Greek roots for fondness and tree, hederaceum refers to ivy-like growth, and oxycardium combines pointed with heart.
Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium brings glossy green heart-shaped leaves to a flexible vine that can stay trailing or climb into broader, more mature growth.

Recommended for Pastors
Format: Kindle
Knowing why you believe what you believe is one of the hardest parts of being a Christian. Just as parents answer a child's endless supply of "why?" questions and usually run out of answers, The Case for the Resurrection of Jesus by Gary Habermas ensures that we Christians don't. It begins with "why" it is important for us to know the information provided in this book. The answer is found in God's Holy Word, I Peter 3:15, "Sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account of the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence."
This book takes several arguments disputing the resurrection of Christ and tears them to shreds. It demonstrates that the very sources used against the resurrection are biased and partial. The amount of information and biblical knowledge contained within is astounding. It includes a CD-ROM which is pure genius, educating the public about the resurrection.
Habermas dissects common questions that argue against Jesus' resurrection, making it an easy reference for the future. For example, say the person you are witnessing to says, "The disciples stole the body;" it is easy to find the information to refute that false belief. Every known argument for why the resurrection didn't happen is accounted for in this book, and proven wrong.
This book is an excellent learning tool for every Christian. I recommend it for pastors as a reference tool and a study guide, regardless of where they are in their walk with the Lord. All of life is a time to learn, and learning never stops. We can never know too much about God.
With the inclusion of a detailed outline of the arguments contained in this book, the notes taken to write the book ( listed by individual chapter),and the bibliography of other reference books used in this one, there is an limitless supply of Bible studies and/or sermons. What pastor could not use this book? This book is by far one of the most useful books on the Christian faith. -- Tammy Hornbeck, Christian Book Previews.com

Buy it for the Resurrection but Stay for the Logic
Format: Kindle
Being a huge fan of Bishop Robert Barron on YouTube, I turned to this book for a specific issue: what is the historical evidence not only that Jesus lived but that He was resurrected? In addition, I wanted something that wasn't written from the perspective of theology but from a more neutral, historical stance. Furthermore, I wanted a book that wasn't a 900 page academic treatise but a book that a layperson could read, easily, and get an overview to the historiography.
AN OVERVIEW TO THE HISTORIOGRAPHY
This book fulfilled that role. Whether you accept its evidence or not hinges a) on your own religious perspective and open mindedness, and b) whether you accept the veracity of many of the early writings of Christianity. Not being an expert, I can't really reach a firm conclusion on "b." The authors are clearly fervent Christians, but they do an admirable job of leaving their beliefs aside and resting their survey to the facts and the historiography.
The book is an excellent overview to the logic and argument in favor of the resurrection. If you're curious or you've ever wondered whether there is any evidence... this is an excellent choice.
AN EXPOSE ON LOGIC
What I found surprising and enjoyable, however, was the writers' expose on logic. If x is true, then y is true. If a is not true, then b cannot be true - etc. The discussion of historical logic, above and apart from the Resurrection, was eye-opening. It made me think - a lot - about how I apply logic to my own understanding of "reality," whether a scientific theory (e.g., evolution) or a historical theory (e.g., that Christ was resurrected).
For that alone, the book is worthy of the read. Did Jesus live? Was he resurrected? This book is not only a good survey of the evidence and arguments but also a wonderful adventure in logic. Read it, and you decide.

Equipping Believers to Evangelize the Resurrection
Format: Paperback
To be candid, I am not a fan of most popular apologetics -- especially on the resurrection. But when I saw that this book was 384 pages long, I thought it was perhaps an exception and would cover the issue in more detail than others. I was wrong. So why do I still rank this book so high? Because it does what it intends to do effectively.
This book effectively equips Christians to witness to their friends, neighbors, and families using the historical evidence for the resurrection of Jesus. Habermas and Licona begin with a discussion about the importance of the resurrection of Jesus to Christianity. Though this seems obvious, the discussion is helpful because it wisely recommends focusing on the resurrection without getting bogged down in, presumably, issues such as inerrancy and a complete harmonization of the resurrection narratives. This is a common failing of Christians trying to share their faith. The authors' emphasis on keeping the eye on the ball extends throughout the book.
After the opening chapter, the book turns to the core of the issue, the historical evidence for the resurrection of Jesus. The strength of this section is that it distills down, accurately, a high level of scholarship on the issue. Habermas and Licona present five "minimal facts." That is, they focus on five historical facts that are accepted by most scholars:
1) Jesus' death by crucifixion;
2) Jesus' disciples believed that he rose and appeared to them;
3) Paul, a persecutor of the church, has suddenly changed to faith in Jesus;
4) James, skeptical of Jesus during his ministry, was suddenly changed to faith in Jesus; and,
5) The tomb of Jesus was empty.
No. 4 is perhaps more disputed than Habermas and Licona discuss (and by far the least important of the five), but the rest of the discussion accurately represents the state of historical scholarship. Although their discussion will not supplant the more probing discussions of N.T. Wright or William L. Craig, it will equip the reader to accurately present to their friends, neighbors, and family the persuasive historical evidence for the resurrection of Jesus. They fit their "minimal facts" together effectively to present a strong case for the resurrection of Jesus.
Most of the rest of the book deals with various objections to the resurrection. This includes the usual suspects, such as the hallucination theory or the forgotten grave site. But it also includes others that scholars tend to ignore but which actually pop up in real conversation, such as whether Jesus could have been an alien (don't laugh, I've heard that one) and how do we know that even if there was a resurrection that God had anything to do with it. Their response effectively focuses on the context of Jesus' ministry and claims about himself.
There are a few sections that appear out of place, such as the discussion of near death experiences and even the section about the existence of God. But the book closes with its strength, a helpful discussion of how to take the knowledge conveyed by the book and convince others about the resurrection of Jesus.
Christians wishing to share effectively the core of their faith with those they care about will find this book very helpful. And for that reason, I recommend it.

“Jesus’ Resurrection is a crucial issue”
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
This book is a must for everyone. The question of “Jesus” is the most important question in human history. Was Jesus real? Did Jesus die? Did Jesus rose? These questions and those like it are the most fundamental, theological questions of the human race. If Jesus was real, if Jesus died, and if Jesus rose, then what he taught is real. The author does a great job of breaking down key arguments against the resurrection, key points of why the resurrection happened, and so much more. The author provides easy breakdown charts. The book it is very easy to read for the common man.
If you have an honest heart, you should read this book and see what you think.
If you are a Christian, you should get this book to help with your faith, to help correct some false
teachings (like a non-bodily resurrection), and to better yourself in defending the faith.

Do not fear studying this topic, nor encountering objectors to the truth.
Format: Paperback
The book is written so well. It provides incredible graphs that summarize each chapter and the premise of the book. Gary Habermas is a prolific author of this topic and has to be one of the greatest contemporary Christian historians. Additionally, Michael R. Licona who also is a fantastic author and apologist co-authors the book.
The book provides arguments that are accepted by the majority of historians as to the veracity of the resurrection account. The key to the book is it aids the defender of this truth to not have to include supporting the scripture as part of the argument which can allow the arguer a way to bypass indisputable truths. Early in the book, this is called the Five Facts ( 4 + 1) The first 4 are the strongest arguments and there's the additional Empty Tomb presentation as well.
The 4 are:
1. Jesus' Death by Crucifixion
2. Disciples' BELIEFS that Jesus Appeared
3. Conversion of the Church Persecutor Paul
4. Conversion of the Skeptic James
These historical facts are clearly portrayed and defended and as the book continues arguments are supplied and answered.
Finally, there's a disc with the book "The Resurrection Challenge" !
