Philodendron 'Florida Green'

Philodendron 'Florida Green' is the green-leaved Florida hybrid with deeply lobed foliage, reddish textured petioles, and a climbing stem that develops larger leaves when given support. Older growth shows a more defined outline than juvenile growth, with the divided green blades and rough petiole texture carrying the classic Florida hybrid traits.

The plant starts with smaller, simpler leaves and becomes more divided as the stem thickens and roots more firmly. Each node can produce aerial roots, which help the plant anchor when it is guided up a pole, plank, or trellis. On a rooted, supported stem, the leaves can become larger and more deeply divided over time.

Green divided leaves and reddish petioles

  • Growth habit: Climbing Philodendron with nodes, aerial roots, and a stem that benefits from early support.
  • Leaf shape: Green leaves become more lobed and divided as the plant matures.
  • Petioles: Reddish to rough-textured petioles add visible structure below the leaf blades.
  • Stem development: New growth extends node by node, making support important before the stem becomes heavy.
  • Supported growth: A climbing stem can carry larger, more divided leaves when it is rooted firmly and kept aligned.

McColley’s Florida hybrid line

Philodendron 'Florida Green' is part of the Florida hybrid line, a cross of Philodendron squamiferum × Philodendron pedatum developed by Robert “Bob” McColley in Florida in the 1950s. Philodendron pedatum (Hook.) Kunth was published in Enumeratio Plantarum 3:49 in 1841 and is an accepted climber from South Tropical America, where it grows in wet tropical habitats. Philodendron squamiferum Poepp. was published in Nova Genera ac Species Plantarum 3:87 in 1845 and is an accepted climber from the Guianas and northern Brazil, also from wet tropical habitats.

The divided leaves come from the Philodendron pedatum side of the hybrid, while the reddish textured petioles come from the Philodendron squamiferum side. Indoors, the climbing stem needs space, support, and a potting mix that can hold moisture while staying open around the roots.

Support, roots and substrate care

  • Light: Provide bright indirect light. A bright position with filtered sun helps keep internodes shorter and leaves larger as the stem climbs.
  • Watering: Water when the upper substrate has started to dry. During active growth, steady moisture keeps new root tips from drying and helps new leaves expand without stalling.
  • Substrate: Use a chunky aroid mix with bark or coco chips, perlite or pumice, and a moisture-retentive base. The mix should drain freely while leaving small air pockets around the roots.
  • Pot choice: Use a pot with drainage holes and enough depth or weight to hold the support securely as the stem gains height.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots fill the pot, the support becomes unstable, or the substrate starts breaking down. Move up gradually to keep the root zone airy.
  • Support: Give a moss pole, coco pole, plank, or trellis before the stem becomes too long. Tie the stem gently until aerial roots begin to attach.
  • Humidity: Moderate to high humidity helps new leaves expand cleanly and gives aerial roots a better chance to attach. Around 50–70% is a suitable indoor range.
  • Temperature: Keep warm at about 18–28°C. Cool conditions slow growth, especially when the pot remains wet.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced fertiliser. Reduce feeding when light levels and leaf production slow.
  • Growth rate: Expect moderate climbing growth once the plant is rooted, warm, and supported. Larger, more divided leaves develop gradually on a stable climbing stem.
  • Pruning: Remove yellowing leaves and trim stretched stems above a node if the plant needs reshaping. Healthy cut sections can be used for propagation.
  • Placement: Place it where the climbing stem has room to extend and the lobed leaves do not press against walls, glass, shelves, or neighbouring plants.
  • Semi-hydroponics: This Philodendron can adapt to mineral or semi-hydro substrates if roots are transitioned gradually and the reservoir is kept clean.
  • Propagation: Propagate from stem cuttings with at least one node. Cuttings with aerial-root nubs often establish more quickly than bare-node pieces.

Leaf size, root stress and petiole damage

  • Yellowing leaves: Check light and root moisture. Rapid yellowing with a sour-smelling mix often points to root stress from overwatering.
  • Drooping leaves: Check the substrate before watering again. Drooping can come from either dry roots or waterlogged roots.
  • Small juvenile leaves: A loose stem without support often keeps producing smaller foliage. Add support and keep the newest growth in bright filtered light.
  • Brown leaf edges: Look for dry roots, fertiliser salt buildup, low humidity, or hot direct sun through glass.
  • Damaged petioles: The textured petioles can be bruised by tight ties. Use soft plant tape and leave room for the petiole base to expand.
  • Pests: Inspect rough petioles, cataphylls, and leaf undersides for scale, mealybugs, spider mites, and thrips, as these areas can hide early infestations.

Safety around pets and children

Philodendron 'Florida Green' should be kept away from pets and children that may chew plants. Philodendron tissue contains calcium oxalate crystals, which can irritate the mouth and throat if ingested. Sap may irritate sensitive skin during pruning or propagation.

Botanical name background

The genus name Philodendron comes from Greek words meaning “to love” and “tree”. Philodendron pedatum refers to a foot-like divided shape, while Philodendron squamiferum means scale-bearing, matching the textured petiole character of that species.

Deeply divided green leaves, reddish textured petioles, and steady climbing growth define Philodendron 'Florida Green'.

The book is missing page 60 in the Kindle edition
Format: Kindle
I actually think the book is really good. I also like the way the content is divided into several books to make the cost of each book inexpensive. However, the Kindle edition that I purchases is missing page 60. I don't know if this was intentional or an oversight. I really want to give the book 4 or 5 stars. I gave it one in hopes of getting someone's attention. I will update this review and change the number of stars once I get an answer about page 60.

Perfect for beginners to explore with a minimum investment if making video games is for you
Format: Kindle
As an absolute beginner I found the book perfect for anyone that wants to explore the making of video games without having to studying lot of software programming. Prior to this I also read the similar book on Unity and found that for an absolute beginner this is perhaps a more gentle introduction. Godot seems to be at this level simpler than Unity as all the necessary elements to make a meaningful game are self contained. Patrick is an excellent teacher and drives you step by step to the point where you would be able to create on your own a multi scene 3D environment. Just getting there is very satisfying as I was able to surprise friends and family on my new acquired skill. Clearly after tasting what you can do with this book you must commit to some level of learning of software and this is where you need to ask yourself if your "exploration" is over or you are so thrilled you want to become a pro. This is entirely up to you, Patrick has shown you the way with a minimum investment of time and money, good luck whatever you decide to do.

Good introduction, but outdated now with Godot 4
Format: Kindle
It was a great introduction to Godot 3, but now after Godot 4 is out, the water plugin doesn’t work anymore used in the book.

Good, but only for complete beginners who haven’t seen the tutorials on the Godot website
Format: Kindle
Skippable with free tutorials found on the web both from official and unofficial resources. A good starting block for those who are completely new to the concept and want to get started with Godot.

Superbly written, relatable, important, and humanistic
Format: Hardcover
I purchased the hardback of this book when I heard that Meta was trying to block its publication. And I’m so glad I did. The book was a jaw-dropping, gripping read that held me in a trance. It’s my understanding that the legal efforts on Meta’s part to have the book blocked have only made it more popular. After reading the book, I’m not surprised. Meta is run by short-sighted, narcissistic, and self-important people who often act like idiot toddlers. Mine. Mine. Gimme. Gimme. Cake. More. More. Once I received the book, I was reluctant to dive in, thinking it would be a challenging read with technology and boring stuff, but I was wrong with that assessment. The book is superbly written, relatable, and humanistic, and made me proud of Sarah for her bravery in becoming a whistleblower. A New Zealand native, Sarah is a lawyer who worked as a diplomat for the United Nations before doggedly selling herself on the staff at Facebook for a job within the organization that she felt could better the world. After working in the upper stratosphere echelons of Facebook for around six years, she has the receipts to prove that the dream of what it could be, became a nightmare. She lays the groundwork for her assertions against Facebook/Meta building her credibility with the reader as she starts from her youth and before the hire. Eventually becoming an intricate player within the Facebook organization, she is a brilliantly smart person (and writer), and she struggles with the culture and personalities of the privileged and out-of-touch leadership who carelessly treat her not as a person, but as a tool. She is often in physical danger too! I was shocked at how often the top leadership - Mark, other top execs, and Sheryl Sandberg - could have cared less about Sarah’s pain, pressure, obstacles, and danger. Not to mention their ignoring Sarah’s wisdom and advice. I’d heard of Sheryl Sandberg – she of the hot book – Lean In. As Oprah and CEOs and other high flyers applauded Sheryl’s awesomeness and her book, I recall at the time feeling intrigued, but super skeptical. See me giving a side eye to the situation and rejecting being given life coaching by a billionaire. It turns out my instincts were right. It’s easier to lean in when you have a staff of nannies, maids, cooks, toadies, and private jets. But she expects everyone to be just as work-driven and productive as her. If you’ve seen the great show Succession – think of the personal assistants portrayed on that show. Their job is to just do – never question – no matter how stupid the task or how impossible the ask. (Do you remember the scene on funeral day when Kendall Roy asks his fast-walking-in-heels personal assistant why she has a meeting scheduled with him and she says in a nervous sing-song – oh, we can talk about it then. He stops walking and presses her for an answer on the spot and she softballs intimating that she is thinking about making a change – and he’s pissed and says like thanks a lot for bringing this up today, my father just died. But she didn’t – he did…. Whatever. You cannot win). Another example. Think Meryl Streep in The Devil Wears Prada asking for the yet-unpublished Harry Potter books to be delivered to her children that the same day. There is a story in Sarah’s book where while traveling in Mexico with the top execs, she gets a frantic call from her husband – there is a horrible situation going on at home in Manhattan with their nanny and the baby (for spoilers – I won’t tell you what was happening but it’s scary as heck). Sarah, trapped and traveling in a car, relays or shares the story about the in-real-time event, because . . . how could you not! Later, in her review, she is told that it was inappropriate for her to talk about her personal life and to basically keep her mouth shut and focus on the job. Lean in and keep your mothering and baby problems to yourself! And part of the problem with all this is that Sarah is not even an “assistant” – she is part of the team. But she is often treated like a body. Another time in a review they said she was ‘difficult to reach’ during the review period and she had to remind them that she was in an actual coma in the hospital. Still – they thought it pertinent and left the negative content as a strike against her. I found the number of personal cruelties to Sarah abhorrent – but Sarah is not a whiner. No. She stayed because she believed in her work and the possible differences she (and presumably, hopefully? others) could make. But the world-changing greed on Facebook’s part to ignore moral and privacy issues, leverage people’s vulnerabilities, profit on the backs of victims, to control the flow of information, and have a pay-to-play mindset in working with an assortment of hate organizations, movements, and autocrats, and to take it further into doing whatever they want as long as they keep growing and gaining more users for their platforms changed everything. Meta is a world gobbler. A globe-stroking Golem who has Thanos power and it’s scarier than you know what. And Facebook had FACEBOOK employees embedded in the Trump campaign to assist them in maximizing the algorithms and giving them whatever tools and access that others didn’t receive. Millions of dollars were spent targeting and spreading the thousands of Trump messages . . . saying God knows what. (Eating cats and dogs?) Harness the press. Harness the information sent to the masses. Pay to ride. Own the world. I’m not sure how Sarah got away with publishing the book, but I applaud the publisher (and I’m assuming a team of lawyers) for going forward with the publication. Read it. Learn from it. I have. But now what do I do? I use Facebook and Instagram– I need to for my business. Don’t I? Maybe Facebook will decide for me after some creepy search retaliates against me for siding with Sarah and for this review. A second is all it takes for me to go bye bye for some infringement or for breaking some policy I’ll never get an answer for. God help us all.
