Philodendron ‘Florida Green’
$99.00
The Philodendron ‘Florida Green’ is the completely green (and therefore easier to care for) version of the popular “Florida Ghost’. As the plant matures, the unique lobes of the leaves become more pronounced giving it that iconic shape. We highly recommend keeping this plant on a moss pole to encourage strong growth as the petioles can be quite brittle, but other than that it’s easy to care for. Try not to let it dry out all the way between waterings, and provide it medium indirect light for the best results, and you’ll have those stunning leaves before you know it!
