The Philodendron florida is a striking climbing aroid known for its uniquely shaped, deeply lobed leaves that develop a dramatic, sculptural form as the plant matures. With its glossy green foliage and bold silhouette, it adds strong visual interest to any indoor plant collection.

This philodendron has a climbing growth habit and performs best when supported by a moss pole or trellis, allowing the leaves to increase in size and definition over time. Its adaptable nature and steady growth make it a rewarding plant for a range of indoor environments.

PLANT CARE

Soil: Use a well-draining, airy aroid mix that retains some moisture without becoming waterlogged. Allow the top layer of soil to dry slightly between waterings.

Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light but will tolerate medium light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.

Humidity: Prefers moderate to higher humidity but adapts well to average household levels.

Temperature: Best suited to warm indoor temperatures between 18–26°C and should be protected from cold drafts.

Fertiliser: Feed lightly with a balanced fertiliser during the warmer growing months to encourage healthy growth.
