# I noticed these yellow spots on my philodendron birkin. Does anyone…

_Gepostet von Bernie Botanical 🌿 am 2025-07-06_

I noticed these yellow spots on my philodendron birkin. Does anyone know if this is sunburn or something more serious? She gets bright indirect light and some west facing afternoon sun. Any advice is appreciated!

To me, it looks like sunburn.

It does look like sunburn. Birkin Philodendrons do get more variegations in brighter light. But, west light can be intense unless it’s late afternoon. Filter the west light or use a window film to lower the intensity. 🪴🍀
