Philodendron 'Florida Ghost' - varietate rara, cu frunzis cameleonic si aspect exotic

Philodendron ‘Florida Ghost’ is a spectacular and highly sought-after variety, appreciated for its unique leaves that change color as they mature. New leaves appear almost white or cream, then go through shades of light green, lime, and emerald, offering a continuous and fascinating color play.

🌿 Botanical characteristics

This variety, part of the Araceae family, has vigorous growth and a semi-climbing habit. Its distinct, lobed, and waxy leaves resemble an elegant silhouette, with a thick and glossy texture. It is a decorative collector's plant, ideal for lovers of rare and spectacular foliage.

💡 Placement

Prefers strong but filtered natural light, protected from direct sunlight. In lower light, the leaves tend to become greener, losing the white-cream contrast specific to the variety.

💧 Watering

Water moderately, only after the top layer of the substrate has partially dried. The soil should remain slightly moist but never soaked. Avoid excess water and ensure very good drainage to prevent root damage.

🌱 Substrate and care

Develops best in an aerated substrate rich in organic matter, ideally a mix of peat, pine bark, coconut chips, and perlite. It can also be grown with support (moss stick or natural fiber support) for harmonious growth.

⚠️ Disclaimer – leaves and transport

• Some specimens may show natural marks, small imperfections, or scars on the leaves, naturally occurring during growth or transport. These aspects do not affect the plant's health.

• The variety has very delicate leaves sensitive to temperature and humidity variations. It is possible that during transport, some leaves may have small aesthetic defects – this is normal and temporary.

• The plant will quickly regenerate its foliage under proper light and watering conditions.
