Philodendron 'Florida Ghost'

Philodendron 'Florida Ghost' is a climbing Philodendron from the Florida hybrid group, recognised for new leaves that open pale cream, mint, or almost white before gradually turning green. Fresh growth holds this pale colour briefly while older leaves deepen into green.

This cultivar grows from a node-forming climbing stem with aerial roots. Small plants may start with simpler foliage, but a supported stem can produce more divided leaves with a lobed Florida-type outline. The pale new leaves are naturally delicate, so steady warmth, even root moisture, and filtered light help new growth expand cleanly.

Pale new leaves and climbing support

  • Growth habit: Climbing Philodendron with aerial roots that attach more readily when given a pole, plank, or trellis.
  • New growth: Fresh leaves emerge pale cream, mint, or white-green, then gradually harden darker.
  • Leaf maturity: Supported older plants can produce more divided leaves than small juvenile plants.
  • Stem behaviour: Each node can extend the vine and produce roots; early support keeps the stem aligned as leaves enlarge and divide.
  • Care focus: Pale leaves mark faster than older green leaves, especially during unfurling.

Florida hybrid traits in Ghost foliage

Philodendron 'Florida Ghost' 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 and is an accepted wet-tropical climber from South Tropical America. Philodendron squamiferum Poepp. was published in Nova Genera ac Species Plantarum 3:87 in 1845 and is an accepted wet-tropical climber from the Guianas and northern Brazil.

The hybrid combines divided foliage from the Philodendron pedatum side with petiole texture from the Philodendron squamiferum side. In this pale new-growth selection, fresh leaves open cream, mint, or almost white before maturing green. Warm roots, even moisture, and higher humidity help pale leaves expand before they darken.

Care for pale Philodendron growth

  • Light: Place in bright filtered light. Pale emerging leaves scorch easily in harsh direct sun, while very dark placement slows growth and weakens the stem.
  • Watering: Water deeply, then let the upper substrate dry slightly. Keep moisture consistent because pale new leaves can mark when the plant swings between very dry and very wet.
  • Substrate: Use a loose aroid mix with bark or coco chips, perlite or pumice, and a fine moisture-holding component. The roots should receive oxygen soon after each watering.
  • Pot choice: Use a pot with drainage holes and enough depth or weight to keep the climbing stem and support stable.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots fill the pot, the support becomes unstable, or the substrate starts to break down. Move up gradually to keep the root zone airy.
  • Humidity: Keep humidity around 50–70% where possible. Higher humidity during leaf expansion helps reduce tearing, dry tips, and stuck cataphylls.
  • Support: Train the stem up a pole, plank, or trellis. Attached aerial roots steady the stem as leaves enlarge and divide.
  • Temperature: Maintain roughly 18–28°C and avoid cold draughts. Pale new leaves mark more easily when the plant is cold or recently stressed.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth. Strong fertiliser doses can damage roots, and that stress often shows quickly on delicate new foliage.
  • Growth rate: Expect moderate climbing growth once the plant is rooted, warm, and supported. Larger, more divided leaves develop on a stable climbing stem.
  • Placement: Place it where new leaves receive steady filtered light and 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.
  • Pruning: Remove only spent or badly damaged leaves. Older green leaves support the next flush of pale growth.
  • Propagation: Propagate from stem cuttings with at least one node. Cuttings with aerial-root nubs often root faster than bare-node pieces.

Scorched leaves, stuck growth and weak stems

  • Brown marks on pale leaves: Check for direct sun, dry substrate during unfurling, or mechanical damage while the leaf was still soft.
  • Yellowing leaves: Inspect the roots if yellowing spreads quickly. A wet, compact mix can damage roots before the climbing stem collapses.
  • Small leaves and long gaps: A stem growing away from light or support may stretch. Secure the newest growth and move the plant into brighter filtered light.
  • Stuck new growth: Improve humidity and watering consistency, then let the cataphyll loosen naturally. Pulling pale leaves open often leaves tears.
  • Pale growth failing early: Check warmth, root health, and hydration. Very pale new leaves photosynthesise less efficiently at first, so the plant depends on healthy older green foliage and strong roots.
  • Pests: Thrips, mites, and mealybugs can damage pale new leaves early. Inspect the newest leaf, petiole base, and cataphylls often.

Toxicity and handling

Philodendron 'Florida Ghost' is toxic if ingested by pets or people. The plant contains calcium oxalate crystals that can cause irritation of the mouth, lips, tongue, and throat. Keep cuttings, pruned leaves, and rooted stems away from children and animals.

Name origin and Florida context

Philodendron means “tree-loving”, referring to the climbing behaviour common in the genus. 'Florida Ghost' refers to the pale colour of new leaves. Philodendron pedatum means foot-like, referring to divided foliage, while Philodendron squamiferum means scale-bearing, referring to its textured petioles.

Pale new leaves that deepen to green, divided foliage, and climbing Florida hybrid growth define Philodendron 'Florida Ghost'.

Hard to install as instructed.
Size: 32 oz
Nearly impossible to get it in the tire through the valve. Yes I removed the valve core. Broke the bead on the tire and dumped it in. That worked great! So far no leaks. They should definitely redesign the installation method.

Been using it for 15 years! Not sure where the Neg reviews come from?
Size: 16 oz
I've been using Liquitube since around 2010. I use it religiously in my ATVs and lawn tractor tires. Since I've been using this stuff, I've never had a flat before. I've pulled out nails and slivers of steel out of my ATV tires but yet none of them lose air or go flat. I think some of the negative reviews come from improper use of the product or not enough of the product is being used in the tires. I think this come from variance in formula charts that Liquitube has had in the past on their bottles and on their website. The chart on their website wouldn't match the formula that was provided on the bottle. So I think alot of people get mixed up and not knowing the correct amount to add to each tire. Now Liquitube just puts pictures on the side of the bottle with an ounce measurement below each picture to tell people how to use it. But even that can be confusing. For instance, take the picture of the ATV that they show. Below the ATV it says 32oz. Now some people probably think the 32oz is for the entire ATV. Well that isn't the case. They want you to use 32oz Per Tire! Years ago Liquitube even used to say on the bottle to use 32oz per tire on an ATV. Now they just show a picture with an amount below it. Now you'll come to find out that the 32oz they recommend doesn't match up to the formula they tell you to use to calculate how much each tire is supposed to get. So if you use the formula provided, you come to find that it calculates out to use less product per tire than what the bottle tells you to use. So that's very confusing as well. So if you use it long enough, you'll be able to know how much each tire will need from experience. Just make sure there's enough on the inside of the tire to coat the entire inside as well as leaving a bit left over to circulate in the tire so it can be ready for a large puncture if that ever happens. All in all, it's a good product that does what it claims. It lasts for as long as the tire does and it doesn't freeze up in the cold either! 5 stars!

Engines run smoothly and efficiently
Color: Pack of 2
I’ve been using Sea Foam SF-16 in both my outboard motor and sailboat, and it has proven to be an invaluable product for maintaining engine performance. This motor treatment is incredibly versatile and effective, making it a staple in my marine maintenance routine. One of the standout benefits of Sea Foam SF-16 is its ability to clean and lubricate the entire fuel system. It effectively removes harmful deposits and residues that can build up over time, ensuring that my engines run smoothly and efficiently. This is particularly important for marine engines, which can be prone to issues due to the harsh operating environment. I also appreciate how Sea Foam stabilizes fuel.

By adding Sea Foam to the fuel tank, I can be confident that the fuel remains fresh and free from moisture, preventing potential engine problems when I’m ready to hit the water again. Another great feature is its ease of use. Simply adding the recommended amount to the fuel tank is all it takes to start seeing the benefits. I’ve noticed a significant improvement in engine performance, with smoother idling and better throttle response. It also helps reduce emissions, which is a nice bonus for the environment. Overall, Sea Foam SF-16 is a fantastic product that I highly recommend to anyone with an outboard motor or sailboat. It keeps engines clean, running smoothly, and protected from the elements, making it a must-have for any boat owner.

WOW-Smoother Performance-Idle Better-Easy To Use-LOVE This Stuff
Color: Pack of 2
GREAT product! I own a "mature" car with lower milage. However the low idle was off and slow, additionally learned that a Gas station provider (occasionally use) had been found to have water in their gas. After reading the reviews and learning many auto mechanics swear by Sea Foam, decided to give it a try. As a woman have experienced hype, un-necessary work etc through the years. I used a funnel to add Sea Foam to my gas tank. Wow! even on shorter trip, noticed a smoother performance. With longer driving seems to have helped the idle and running even smoother! Believe that with more use will see even better performance and hopefully better milage! Do Not Hesitate, you and your vehicle are worth it! Thank you!
