Philodendron Florida Green

Botanical Name: Philodendron hybrid of P. Squamiferum and P. Pedatum

Common Name(s): Florida Green Philodendron

The Philodendron Florida Green is a striking and fast-growing variety of Philodendron known for its unique, deeply lobed leaves and vibrant green coloration. Native to the tropical regions of Central and South America, this plant has become a popular choice among houseplant enthusiasts due to its distinct, almost fern-like leaves that offer a dramatic contrast to other, more traditional houseplants. The plant's long, glossy, and segmented leaves give it an elegant, almost sculptural look, making it a beautiful addition to any indoor space. As a climbing or trailing plant, the Florida Green Philodendron is often seen thriving in hanging baskets, atop shelves, or climbing a support such as a moss pole.

This Philodendron thrives in bright, indirect light, though it can tolerate moderate to low light conditions. However, in lower light, the growth may slow, and the leaves may not be as vibrant. This plant prefers well-draining, slightly acidic to neutral soil and should be watered when the top 1-2 inches of soil feel dry to the touch. Like many tropical plants, it is sensitive to overwatering, so it’s important to let the soil dry out slightly between waterings to avoid root rot. The Florida Green Philodendron thrives in temperatures between 65–80°F (18–27°C) and prefers higher humidity levels, making it ideal for bathrooms or kitchens where humidity is naturally higher.

Air Purifying Qualities:

Toxin Removal: The Florida Green Philodendron is effective at filtering indoor air by removing toxins such as formaldehyde, benzene, and xylene, contributing to cleaner, healthier air.
Oxygen Production: Like other Philodendrons, it absorbs carbon dioxide and releases oxygen, helping to improve the overall air quality in your home.
Humidity Regulation: This plant can slightly increase indoor humidity through transpiration, which can be especially beneficial in drier environments.

Note: The Philodendron Florida Green is toxic to pets, including cats and dogs, if ingested. 

Care Insights & Expert Tips

  1. Fertilize regularly: Feed your plant with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength every 4 weeks during the spring and summer season.
  2. Monitor for pests: Keep an eye out for common houseplant pests like mealybugs and spider mites. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
  3. Avoid Cold Drafts: This Philodendron prefers warm, consistent temperature. Avoid sudden reduced temperatures changes. 
  4. Repotting: Repot every 1-2 years or when the plant becomes root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix, such as peat-based or general houseplant mix, and select a pot that’s just 1-2 inches larger than the current one.
  5. Simplified Care Routine: This Philodendron is delicate and does not require overly complex care routines. Complications, such as overwatering and too much fertilizer, can affect the plant and stunt its growth.
