The Philodendron hederaceum 'Variegata' is the real deal—not the common 'Brasil' you see everywhere, but the actual white-and-green variegated heartleaf. Its leaves come out splotched, striped, or half-painted in cream, sometimes with whole sections blanched out like someone spilled bleach on them.
But tbh It's a bit of a pain compared to the regular green version. Needs more light to keep the variegation from fading, but those white patches burn if the sun hits them directly. Grows slower too—those pale parts don't make food for the plant, so it struggles to push out new growth when it's heavily variegated. Every so often a stem will revert to solid green and start outpacing the rest; you have to cut it back or the whole plant goes back to plain.
Roots easy enough in water, though it takes its time. Leaves stay small unless you give it something to climb. The variegation gets bolder in summer, muddier in winter when the light drops. Harder to track down than 'Brasil' and usually pricier when you do find it.
