Philodendron Florida Beauty is a hybrid of Philodendron squamiferum and Philodendron pedatum. The leaves on this cultivar are variegated, showing white and cream coloring against a green leaf.
Philodendron Florida Beauty loves to climb so make sure to provide it with a coco pole or other support structure to attach to. As this plant climbs higher, the leaves will become larger with more pronounced lobes and narrow mid ribs. As they mature they are a true sight to behold!
Caring for your Philodendron Florida Beauty is relatively simple. Provide your plant with a well draining soil that is rich in organic matter. Allow the soil to dry out almost completely between watering, taking care to not allow it to sit in excess water. Give your new plant plenty of bright indirect light.
