Philodendron 'Florida Bronze'

Philodendron 'Florida Bronze' opens bronze to coppery new leaves that harden into deeper green on a climbing Philodendron stem. One plant can show bronze, olive-green, and older green leaves at the same time, especially while several growth points are active.

Growth comes from a node-forming stem with aerial roots, and the leaf outline becomes more defined on supported stems. Young plants often carry smaller, simpler blades. As the stem climbs and roots more firmly, the leaves can become broader, more divided, and more deeply lobed.

Bronze leaves, textured petioles and climbing growth

  • Growth habit: Climbing aroid with aerial roots along the stem and better stem alignment when grown upward.
  • Leaf colour: Fresh leaves emerge bronze to coppery green, then harden into darker green as they mature.
  • Leaf shape: Juvenile foliage starts simpler, while supported growth becomes more lobed and cut.
  • Petioles: Reddish tones and a lightly textured surface can appear along the leaf stalks.
  • Pot and support: A stable pot and early support keep the climbing stem better aligned as it gains height.

Black Cardinal and Florida parentage

Philodendron 'Florida Bronze' is commonly described in cultivation as a Philodendron 'Black Cardinal' × Philodendron 'Florida' hybrid. Its Florida parent traces back to Robert “Bob” McColley’s Philodendron squamiferum × Philodendron pedatum hybrid work in Florida in the 1950s. Philodendron pedatum (Hook.) Kunth was published in Enumeratio Plantarum 3:49 in 1841, while Philodendron squamiferum Poepp. was published in Nova Genera ac Species Plantarum 3:87 in 1845.

The Florida side contributes divided leaves, aerial-root climbing, and textured petioles. The Black Cardinal side is linked with darker juvenile colouring, matching the bronze to coppery flush on fresh leaves. Hardened leaves naturally settle into green, while each new growth point brings the warm colour back again.

Care for new growth and root health

  • Light: Give bright filtered light with protection from harsh midday sun. Bronze new leaves are tender and can mark quickly after sudden sun exposure.
  • Watering: Water thoroughly once the upper part of the substrate has started to dry. The roots need steady moisture during active growth, with enough air around the lower nodes.
  • Substrate: Use a chunky aroid mix with coco chips or bark, perlite or pumice, and a moisture-holding base. The mix should drain quickly while staying lightly moist around active roots.
  • Pot choice: Use a pot with drainage holes and enough depth or weight to hold the climbing stem and support securely.
  • Support: Add a pole, plank, or trellis while the plant is still manageable. Attached aerial roots steady the stem as the leaves enlarge.
  • Humidity: Aim for moderate to high humidity, especially while new leaves are expanding. Around 50–70% helps soft bronze leaves open with fewer dry edges.
  • Temperature: Keep warm at roughly 18–28°C. Cold roots and wet substrate can damage lower nodes and slow new leaf production.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced fertiliser. Reduce feeding when growth slows and flush the pot if mineral salts collect in the substrate.
  • Repotting: Repot one size up when roots fill the pot or watering becomes difficult to balance. Keep the support steady so attached aerial roots remain intact.
  • Growth rate: Expect moderate climbing growth once the plant is rooted, warm, and supported. Larger leaves and clearer divisions develop on a stable climbing stem.
  • Pruning: Remove yellowing or damaged leaves and trim stretched stems above a node if reshaping is needed. Healthy cut sections can be used for propagation.
  • Placement: Place it where the climbing stem has room to extend and fresh leaves do not press against glass, walls, 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.

Brown new leaves, soft nodes and small foliage

  • Brown patches on new leaves: Check for direct sun, dry roots during unfurling, or handling damage while the bronze leaf is still soft.
  • Yellowing lower leaves: Inspect the root ball and stem base. Persistent wetness in a dense mix often shows first as older leaves turning yellow.
  • Soft nodes or blackened stem sections: Move the plant warmer, remove damaged tissue, and check whether the substrate is staying wet around the lower stem.
  • Small simple leaves: Add support and improve filtered light. A loose stem that hangs or leans often keeps producing smaller juvenile foliage.
  • Stuck leaves: Low humidity, irregular watering, or dried cataphylls can trap new growth. Keep moisture more even and let leaves loosen naturally.
  • Pests: Check petioles, cataphylls, and leaf undersides for thrips, spider mites, scale, and mealybugs before new growth becomes distorted.

Pet and child safety

Philodendron 'Florida Bronze' is not pet-safe or child-safe if chewed. Like other Philodendron, it contains calcium oxalate crystals that can irritate the mouth, throat, and digestive tract. Sap may also irritate sensitive skin, so wash your hands after pruning or taking cuttings.

Name meaning and botanical background

Philodendron comes from Greek roots often translated as “tree-loving”, referring to the climbing and tree-associated growth seen in many species. 'Florida Bronze' refers to the warm bronze colour seen on fresh leaves. The Florida parent connects this plant with Philodendron pedatum, whose epithet refers to a foot-like divided shape, and Philodendron squamiferum, whose name means scale-bearing in reference to its textured petioles.

Bronze-flushed new leaves, divided green foliage, and climbing Florida hybrid growth define Philodendron 'Florida Bronze'.

Why call it "Grovel" when there is no actual groveling?
Format: Kindle
I'm so confused by this story. The title of the book is Grovel and yet the MMCs do not do any groveling at all. They reject her, say mean/cruel things to her and break her heart, but then do nothing to make up for it when she comes back to town. I couldn't stand Frost; the way that he treated her, and women in general, the things that he said to her just gave no reason for why he should be forgiven or be allowed back into Noelle's life. The interactions with Robin and Shepard were a little better, but nothing about this story showed me why she should forgive them and get back together with them. This was a good premise, but very poor execution of a story line. I felt bad for Noelle and what she had been through with these men, but wanted better for her and wished that she could have found a different pack that would actually treat her right and not blame her for the choices that their mother made. In the end, this book just wasn't for me. I liked the character of Nana, I even liked Noelle's parents and felt bad for what Noelle had to deal with, but I just didn't care for the supposed romance that this book was about. Maybe others will enjoy it, but I'll probably pass on any other stories from this author. I gave it 2.75 stars, but rounded up since Amazon doesn't allow partial stars.

The grovel wasn’t groveling.
Format: Kindle
Oh no, if you’re going to promise grovel, you better deliver. And unfortunately… this one fumbled the assignment. Three Alphas who rejected their scent match, broke her heart, and let her walk away for ten years, only to realize she was “the one suddenly”? I was ready for emotional devastation and tearful, knees-in-the-snow apologies. But here’s the problem: the grovel just didn’t hit hard enough. For a betrayal that deep, the emotional payoff felt rushed. The Alphas express regret, sure, but it never quite reaches that gut-wrenching, ache-for-it level you expect from a story built entirely on redemption. Their apologies come, but they lack the prolonged suffering, the desperate proving, the earn it or lose her forever energy that would’ve made this unforgettable. After ten years of heartbreak and abandonment, Noelle's forgiveness comes a little too easily, a little too quickly. You can feel the story nudging her toward reconciliation before the emotional scales are fully balanced. The chemistry is still there, the tension still simmers, and the small-town winter vibes are undeniably cozy, but for a book titled Grovel, the emotional reckoning needed to be deeper, messier, and far more punishing. A compelling setup with plenty of angst and longing, but if you’re here for hardcore grovel and slow-earned forgiveness, this one might leave you wanting more.
