Philodendron Florida is a beautiful hybrid Philodendron, with a strong climbing and spreading habit. Florida has a striking appearance with intense green, very deeply incised leaves. The long stems stretch out in all directions. Originally, the climbing Philodendron was used to climb up along trees and other plants in rainforests in order to break through the canopy and reach the daylight.

Light
Philodendrons thrive in medium to bright indirect light, but will tolerate darker spots as well.
Soil
Use a well-draining potting mix, such as our Aroid Potting Mix, ideally containing some coco coir, bark and perlite. You can also grow Philodendrons in soil-less mixes like sphagnum moss and perlite or hydroponics.
Water
Philodendrons like their soil to dry between waterings. Water when the top 3cm of soil are totally dry to the touch.
Humidity
Most Philodendron, especially the Erubesecens varieties, will thrive in average humidity. However, some of the more tropical and velvety species will require higher humidity to survive.
Toxicity
All Philodendron are toxic to humans and animals if ingested.
