Philodendron Florida Beauty

Philodendron Florida Beauty is a stunning evergreen hybrid species. Suspected to be a cross between Philodendron Pedatum and Philodendron Squamiferum, Florida Beauty features similarities between the two classics. This particular variation displays beautiful variegation with colors ranging from rich green to yellow-ish cream tones. A key element for success is well-draining growing medium that may consist of a typical components that are generally used for aroids such as perlite, bark, sphagnum etc. Because each leaf produced is different, each plant is truly unique, making it a top contender for the rare aroid collector's collection. This tropical aroid does best in warmer climates and should be kept away from colder areas and drafts. Like other rare aroids, Philodendron Florida Beauty will appreciate an environment that is richer in humidity, if possible.

In the wild, Philodendron are fantastic climbers and will appreciate a sturdy moss pole to climb on and traverse. When provided with optimal conditions, Philodendron put out aerial roots that may be air-layered for safe propagation once mature. Pruning does not need to be frequent, but older leaves or foliage with visible damage can be removed to encourage new growth.
