CARE:

Light: Provide bright, indirect light for your Philodendron Florida Beauty. Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight, as this can scorch the delicate variegated leaves. However, some filtered morning or late afternoon sun could be beneficial. If the plant doesn't receive enough light, its variegation may become less pronounced.

Watering: Allow the top inch or two of the soil to dry out before watering. Water thoroughly but ensure proper drainage to prevent waterlogged soil, which can lead to root rot. During the growing season (spring and summer), you'll likely need to water more frequently, but reduce the frequency during the dormant period (fall and winter).

Humidity: Like many tropical plants, the Philodendron Florida Beauty appreciates higher humidity levels. You can maintain humidity by misting the plant regularly, using a humidity tray, or placing a humidifier nearby. This will help keep the leaves healthy and prevent browning at the edges.

Temperature: Maintain a consistent temperature range between 65°F to 85°F (18°C to 29°C). Avoid exposing the plant to drafts or temperature extremes.

Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix that retains some moisture. A mixture of peat moss, perlite, and pine bark is a good choice. Make sure the pot has drainage holes to prevent water from accumulating at the roots.

Fertilization: During the active growing season (spring and summer), feed your Philodendron Florida Beauty with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4-6 weeks. Dilute the fertilizer to half the recommended strength. Reduce or halt fertilization during the plant's dormant period.
