Common Name: Philodendron Florida Beauty
Philodendron Florida Beauty is well known for its signature leaf shape and marbled coloration. Color tones include a mixture of green, white, cream and pale yellow. Like other Philodendron species, Florida Beauty is relatively hardy and will adapt to most conditions making it a favorite amongst house plant collectors. Philodendron Florida Beauty works well as a standard container plant but will also work well in hanging baskets or mixed species displays. Like other Philodendron species, P. Florida Beauty is a climbing variety and will trail or vine with assistance from its aerial roots. In the home, it will be necessary to stake the plant or provide a sturdy pole to prevent the plant from flopping over as it matures. A well-aerated grow medium that retains moisture is ideal and increased humidity levels and temperatures are preferable for this Philodendron.
Propagation can be done via cuttings as long as the plant has a viable node or growth point. Humidity can be increased through the use of a humidifier, pebble tray or also by placing the plant in an enclosed container that is opened periodically for fresh air flow.
