ABOUT THE PLANT 

Philodendron "Florida Beauty" is a highly desirable and visually striking cultivar of the Philodendron genus. It is known for its beautiful variegated foliage and compact growth habit. The leaves of Philodendron Florida Beauty display an eye-catching combination of dark green, light green, and creamy white colors, making it a popular choice among plant enthusiasts.

Appearance: Philodendron Florida Beauty has large, heart-shaped leaves with a variegated pattern. The foliage typically showcases a mixture of dark green, light green, and creamy white colors. The variegation can vary from plant to plant, with some specimens having more pronounced variegation than others.

Growth habit: This Philodendron cultivar is relatively compact compared to other vining Philodendron varieties. It tends to grow in a bushy and upright manner, making it suitable for tabletops or smaller spaces. However, it may still benefit from support or staking as it grows taller.

Light requirements: Philodendron Florida Beauty thrives in bright, indirect light. It appreciates a few hours of direct morning sunlight, but avoid exposing it to intense, direct sunlight for extended periods, as it can scorch the leaves. Insufficient light may result in reduced variegation or leggy growth.

Temperature and humidity: This plant prefers warm temperatures ranging between 65°F and 85°F (18°C to 29°C). It can tolerate average household humidity levels, but it will benefit from slightly higher humidity. Providing occasional misting or placing the plant near a humidifier can help maintain optimal conditions.

Watering: Water the Philodendron Florida Beauty thoroughly when the top inch (2.5 centimeters) of soil feels dry. Ensure proper drainage, and avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot. Allow excess water to drain from the pot to prevent waterlogging.
