Philodendron 'Moonlight'

Philodendron 'Moonlight' is a self-heading interspecific Philodendron hybrid with faintly yellow to lime-green new leaves that mature into softer green. It grows from a short central crown, creating a full rosette of glossy, ovate leaves. The brightest colour appears on fresh growth, while older leaves build the greener base around it.

Philodendron 'Moonlight' belongs to the self-heading hybrids associated with R.H. McColley’s Bamboo Nursery programme in Apopka, Florida.

  • Growth habit: Self-heading rosette with a short central stem and a compact, pot-filling shape.
  • Leaf colour: New leaves open faintly yellow to lime-green before maturing to a softer green.
  • Leaf shape: Glossy ovate leaves with a smooth surface and firm texture.
  • Provenance: Associated with the McColley/Bamboo Nursery self-heading Philodendron breeding line.

McColley-line rosette growth

Philodendron 'Moonlight' develops from a short central stem with leaves arranged closely around the crown. Turning the pot occasionally helps the rosette grow more evenly when light comes from one direction.

New foliage carries the strongest yellow-green tone, then older leaves settle into greener shades as they harden.

Light and watering for Moonlight

  • Light: Place in bright filtered light to support strong new leaves and compact crown growth. Direct midday sun can scorch the glossy surface.
  • Watering: Water when the top 3–4 cm of substrate are dry. Keep the crown dry and avoid water sitting in the leaf bases.
  • Substrate: Use a loose aroid mix with bark, perlite or pumice, and a moisture-retentive component that still drains freely.
  • Humidity: Moderate humidity is usually enough, though very dry air can roughen new leaf edges.
  • Temperature: Keep it between 18–28°C. Growth slows in cooler conditions, especially if the substrate stays wet.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth. Too much fertiliser can mark leaf edges and stress the roots.
  • Maintenance: Remove old damaged leaves at the base and keep the crown open enough for airflow.

Yellow leaves, stretched growth and pest signs

  • Soft yellow leaves low on the plant: Check watering frequency and drainage. A wet crown can decline quickly.
  • Brown sunken patches: Check for direct sun, heat stress, or water droplets sitting on young leaves in strong light.
  • Loose, stretched growth: Check light direction and intensity. A healthy plant should build a fairly full rosette.
  • Distorted new leaves: Inspect the crown and fresh growth for thrips, which often show first on pale young leaves.

Safety information

Philodendron 'Moonlight' is toxic if chewed. Its tissues contain calcium oxalate crystals that can irritate the mouth, throat, digestive tract, and skin. Keep the plant out of reach of pets and children, and wash your hands after pruning or removing damaged leaves.

Family and cultivar background

Philodendron belongs to the Araceae family and is native from Mexico through tropical America. Philodendron 'Moonlight' is part of a self-heading Philodendron hybrid line known for compact crown growth and pale yellow-green new leaves.

Philodendron 'Moonlight' forms a bright compact rosette with yellow-green new growth and glossy ovate leaves.

Excellently written behind the scenes history
Format: Paperback
This is one of the best books on the irony of the Civil War. It is a different perspective that focuses on the misjudgement and arrogance of the confederacy. Food wars and manipulation of the slaves they were not part of their ill-conceived strategy to establish a states based totally on inequality. Too bad that today's politicans are trying to repeat the same mistakes. I would highly recommend this book to students of the Civil War and anybody who looks at today's politics and wonders where their southern strategy got its roots.

Women and slave power in the C.S.A.
Format: Paperback
Fascinating, well documented description of the influential roles played by women and slaves in the Confederated States of America. The author demonstrates that the principal focus of the C.S.A. was first and foremost on the preservation of its 'peculiar institution', i.e., slavery, and the how this, along with the increasing politization of women, undermined its viabilty in many ways. The author's style is a bit turgid and academic at times, but well worth the effort to gain a better understanding of the Civil War from the South's perspective.

I really enjoyed the premise of this book
Format: Hardcover
It seems to me that, it was a book just waiting to be written. The author covers topics very rarely considered in any detail in other books on the Civil War. She helps cut through some of the romantic mysticism and points out reasons why, as we all suspected, that most of the South (especially the poor) were very much victims of the Confederacy. She also explains in greater detail the way of thinking of the Planter class of the Old South, which still exists today--you can even hear it in the speech of the elites of the Deep South today. The problem I had with this book, is that the author repeats herself. Some here have said that they don't understand why people are saying that. Let me paraphrase just a couple examples of what I mean. She says , in one paragraph, that "soldiers wives started to become a political constituency for the first time" and explains how. A paragraph later, she ends the paragraph with "becoming a political entity was something new for poor white soldiers' wives". On the next page it says "for poor soldiers' wives, the Civil War was a huge burden, and they came into their own politically". In three pages she might say, "the term soldiers' wives' began to take on political meaning for the first time". Now, that is not repeating yourself with the same words, exactly. But it is repeating concepts that are not that hard to grasp. The book could have been much shorter and, IMHO, much better. I am not sure why the author feels the need to repeat certain points over and over. Another concept "done to death" was how the Planter class had not considered that a full 1/3 of their population would not only not be soldiers, but also would , in all likelihood, be opposed to them. Now, this would seem obvious to us now, so it is important that she point it out. But once is enough. I hope I am explaining the "repetition problem" a little better here....the topic and concepts were great. Repeating concepts over and over made for, in some places, a very long read.

Fascinating Social History of the Confederacy
Format: Paperback
This was hard to get into in the first chapter. It became more and more readable. It provides a critical look at the untold stories of women and slaves in the Civil War-the powerless. It shows how poorly conceived the whole Confederate experiment was. When Jefferson Davis said that the Confederacy would have written on its tombstone "Died of a Theory", he could have said "Died of Many Half-Baked Theories" about the rights of the powerful over the powerless. There should be much more written about the social history of the Confederacy. One of the more interesting points the book makes is how little the Southern people had to do with the secession of most of the states. This was a tragedy of immense proportions.

Helpful!
Format: Kindle
What a needed text for the canonical sciences. The glossary and footnote comments were most helpful. The definition of law is most excellent.
