Philodendron hederaceum ‘Lime’ (‘Neon’)
Philodendron hederaceum ‘Lime’ (‘Neon’) is a bright chartreuse heartleaf Philodendron with slim vining stems and vivid yellow-green leaves. New growth opens in fresh lime tones, then matures into softer green.
The leaves are heart-shaped, with a cordate base, pointed tip and smooth surface. Young plants usually make smaller leaves on longer, flexible vines; stems given a pole, plank or trellis can sit flatter and size up more evenly as aerial roots find contact.
Chartreuse heart leaves on slim vining stems
- Young leaves open bright lime before maturing into softer green.
- Slender stems can trail from a pot or be guided upward on a pole, plank or trellis.
- Heart-shaped leaves stay thin, soft and flexible on the vine.
- Visible nodes make pruning and stem cuttings straightforward.
- Several rooted cuttings in one pot give the vine denser early growth.
Compact early growth and climbing behaviour
Philodendron hederaceum belongs to Araceae, the aroid family. The species is native from Mexico through Tropical America and grows as an epiphyte in the wet tropical biome, where stems can attach to tree trunks and continue upward through humid forest vegetation.
Indoors, aerial-root nubs can grip a pole, plank or trellis, helping the vine hold position and keep leaves closer together. While the stems are short, ‘Lime’ (‘Neon’) stays neat in a smaller pot; as the vines lengthen, rotate the pot occasionally for even growth and prune stretched stems above a node to encourage new side shoots.
Keeping Philodendron ‘Lime’ bright and evenly spaced
- Light: Give bright indirect light for compact growth; harsh direct sun can mark the thinner leaves.
- Watering: Water when the upper part of the mix has dried and the pot feels lighter; the fleshy roots dislike staying wet in dense soil.
- Substrate: Use an airy aroid mix with bark, perlite or pumice and a moisture-holding base so oxygen reaches the roots between waterings.
- Temperature: Keep it warm, ideally above 18 °C, and avoid cold windowsills or draughty shelves.
- Humidity: Moderate indoor humidity is usually suitable; steadier humidity can help new leaves open cleanly on longer vines.
- 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; excess fertilizer can stress the root zone and mark soft new growth.
- 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 vines have room to trail or climb, away from harsh direct sun and cold air movement.
- Training and pruning: Pinch or cut above a node to encourage side shoots; guide selected vines upward if larger, flatter leaves are preferred.
- Growth rate: Growth is usually moderate to fast in warmth, bright indirect light and a loose, evenly managed root zone.
Lime leaves, long internodes and root-zone checks
- Long gaps between leaves: Usually caused by low light or unsupported trailing stems; move the plant brighter or train the vine upward.
- Soft yellowing leaves: Check for a wet lower pot and compacted mix before watering again.
- Brown patches on lime leaves: Direct sun, dry roots or fertilizer buildup can show quickly on pale tissue; flush the mix and adjust placement.
- Small new leaves: Check root health, warmth and whether older vines need pruning or climbing support.
- Pests on new tips: Inspect the soft new growth and petiole bases for thrips, mealybugs or mites if leaves emerge distorted.
Safety
Philodendron hederaceum ‘Lime’ (‘Neon’) contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals. Keep it away from pets that chew plants, and wash hands after pruning if the sap contacts sensitive skin.
Botanical name and lime form
Philodendron hederaceum was published by Heinrich Wilhelm Schott as Philodendron hederaceum (Jacq.) Schott in Wiener Zeitschrift für Kunst, Litteratur, Theater und Mode 1829(3): 780, published 6 August 1829. Philodendron comes from Greek roots for tree-loving growth, and hederaceum comes from Latin for ivy-like, matching the species’ climbing stems.
Philodendron hederaceum ‘Lime’ (‘Neon’) brings vivid chartreuse heart leaves to a flexible vine that can stay compact when young, trail softly from a pot or climb into broader, more mature growth.

Interesting and Informative
Format: Kindle
Interesting and informative. This is a book about German political leaders and how they perceived the United States, its culture and it’s laws. Although it touches on the American culture and legal system, it is mostly comprised of quotes from German writers, lawyers and politicians. It’s worth reading if you are interested in how the German goverment evolved the laws supporting the eventual persecution of its Jewish citizens.
This is a book about Germany and makes some high level generic observations on American Eugenics and Race Laws. It is informative and makes some interesting observations on our race laws, but if you’re more interested in the United States race law history, I would recommend something more focused the United States.

Much Better than its Title.
Format: Hardcover
The author, Professor of Comparative and Foreign Law at the Yale Law School, tells us in the Acknowledgments that Princeton U. Press received from some of its referees "suitably bilious responses", validating his decision to bypass commercial publishers. Still, James Q. Whitman assures us time and again that he has nothing nefarious in mind, that Hitler's extermination ideology was not made in the USA, as the title may suggest. Instead, he brings to light the keen scholarly interest nationalist and Nazi German jurists took in contemporary American race legislation and Jim Crow practices. By separating the racist dimension of the "American Legal Realism" of the 1930s from its larger liberal context, Whitman arrives at the true nexus with its German counterpart. The " 'realists' of both countries shared the same eagerness to smash the obstacles that 'formalistic' legal science put in the way of 'life' and politics - and 'life' in both New Deal America and Nazi Germany did not include only economic programs (...). 'Life' also involved racism." (p. 156) The author's familiarity with both, the German and American legal landscapes of the 1930s and 40s and his painstakingly sober analysis, assure this reader that the book is exactly NOT "spellbinding and haunting", as one dust-cover reviewer sees it.
The topic could be embedded in the larger history of the American eugenics movement, so carefully illuminated by Christine Rosen (Preaching Eugenics (Oxford, 2004) who cites this opinion of the great Oliver Wendell Holmes, abbreviated in our book: "It is better for all the world, if instead of waiting to execute degenerate offspring for crime, or to let them starve for their imbecility, society can prevent those who are manifestly unfit from continuing their kind. Three generations of imbeciles are enough." (p.150)
As contemporaries of the Trump era, we may want to stop and reflect on Whitman's somber conclusion "(...) To have a common-law system like that of America is to have a system in which the traditions of the law do indeed have litte power to ride herd on the demands of the politicians, and when the politics is bad, the law can be very bad indeed." (p.159) Professor Whitman summarizes his interpretation of recent literature that support his thesis as follows: "All of these works paint a darker picture of early twentieth-century American intellectual and political life than we might wish. So does this book." Makes it a timely one, doesn't it ?

Essential reading for a fuller and more accurate comprehension of American history
Format: Hardcover
I'm not in the habit of writing reviews, but I strongly recommend Hitler's American Model as critical reading for our political moment, especially given the conversations about racism, antisemitism, and white supremacy that the Trump administration and Charlottesville have bought to the fore. It's imperative that we understand the depth of racism integral to American policy making and execution. Numerous European countries recognized America as the world's leader in racist legislation, and American immigration, naturalization, and antimiscegenation law influenced the Nazi legislators who crafted the Nuremberg Laws. They did not import American legal policy and praxis wholecloth, but studied it deeply as a precedent for not just a race-based, but a racist, system of laws that privileged the "master race" over the inferior dilutors of that race--in the Nazi case, the Jews. American exclusion and criminalization of non-white people proffered a blueprint of inspiration to Nazi radicals, who engaged intimately with it in the hopes of carrying it out to its logical extent: an openly racist legal system that drove out the racially decrepit to foster a pure Aryan state.

America's Fascist Governments
Format: Hardcover
"Love it" is not the correct phrase for how I related to the book.
An important book for which I am thankful sobered and shamed by the book, better express my feelings.
America to our lasting shame was the Mid-Tewentith Century global leader in the law of racial disenfranchisement & suppression despite our constitution to the contrary. That we were one model for Nazi race law is an abomination, a stain we can never remove.
Professor Whitman though is generous to America, and this old, white, Tennessean, believes incorrect, when he states (p. 145) that the Nazi's went beyond American racism by creating, "...something different: the "organization of a fascist state"." The author is correct that the United Staes of America was itself not a "fascist state". However, within the United States, at least at the county level, governments existed and were tolerated by the federal government, that were indeed fascist in all but name. One-party county governments based on white supremacy and dedicated to maintaining white rule, black poverty & political powerlessness, racial purity & separation, at any cost including murder, existed in the South, in Tennessee, long before Hitler. These Southern county governments were very effective police states that employed government led white terror to control African Americans. White terrorists county governments they were. Fascist they were. Americans organized fascist local governments long before Germans organized on a national scale and streamlined their murder machine. Americans fascists killed fewer, but kill they did.

Impressive sources, sophomoric writing.
Format: Kindle
Should everyone read this book? Certainly. But the writing is too poor for me to offer an enthusiastic four or five star recommendation. I'm surprised an editor did not clean this up so that the book could live up to its eye-opening content.
This already short book has quite a lot of distracting, repetitive padding. Symbolic of this is the use of the phrase "of course" - it appears thirty times.
More repetition appears in the author's needless (and, I would say, presumptuous) dwelling on the reader's emotional reactions to the content of the book: the idea that America might have influenced the Nazis is "too awful to contemplate," and "is sure to seem distressing," and "hard to digest," and "no one wants to imagine" it, and "none of this is entirely easy to talk about," and "it is hard to look coolly on the question," and "it is hard to admit," and "no one wants to be perceived as relativizing," and "no non-Germans want their country to be accused," and "it is hard to overcome our sense that..." and "painful though it may be for us to admit..." and "awful it may be to contemplate," and "the story of American influence...is certainly depressing," and so on and so forth. Nevertheless, "To be sure, we must keep our composure..."
This repetition gets exhausting in a single 56-word sentence invoking the phrases "true nefandum...abyss of unexampled modern horror...sui generis radical evil...a sort of dark star."
More padding appears in the author's concern with arguing against weak positions: "We can, and should, reject the sort of simple-minded anti-Americanism..." "It would be a mistake to draw overblown conclusions..." Well, yes, simple-minded anything is to be rejected, as are overblown conclusions about anything. But that doesn't stop the author from presenting repetitive arguments.
Additional filler that an editor should have excised is in the form of these phrases, which read like a student trying to hit a required word count in a term paper: "It is important to note that..." "In particular it is essential to emphasize..." "We must bear that fact in mind..." "It is an unpleasant truth that..." "Worthy of attention above all is..." "It is particularly noteworthy that..." "Sahm is a particularly noteworthy author..."
Finally, the author descends into a kind of bullying that indicates a lack of confidence in his own presentation: "Our literature has taken a crass interpretative track." "It is a major interpretative fallacy on the part of all these scholars..."It would be foolish and craven to minimize Nazi interest in what American law represented." "It is essential to reject once and for all the proposition that American law could not have been of interest to the Nazis." "It is simply nonsense to claim..." "Once we dispose of that dubious claim..." "There can be no justification for ignoring the evidence..." "Only a naive and pedestrian understanding of law - only a dogged refusal to face facts..." An editor should have deleted these kinds of phrases and just let the content - the documenting of Nazi interest in America law - speak for itself.
With all this rhetorical padding, the book is overpriced. Nevertheless it has value as a kind of annotated bibliography.
