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'.

FAST. Powerful. Easy to use.
Size: 8" Edger New
WOW! I bought a new house a couple of months ago, and the landscaping company overlapped the edge of the driveway with the sod. I've bee trying to trim it back with my string trimmer, but the results were less than desirable. I got my new edger today, and I am astonished at the results! ruler straight edging, 2 1/2" deep and 1/4" wide. PERFECT! . . . and the whole front yard took less than 10 minutes! The edger is very powerful - it easily cut through the sod, deep into the dirt underneath leaving a nice clean edge. My neighbor has a lawncare company, and he was watching me. He came over and said he was going to get one for his jobs, as it is much faster and easier to use.

GREAT 80v edger (but Kobalt users beware)
Size: 8" Edger Gen1, Size: 8" Edger Gen1
This Greenworks 80v edger is fantastic. I was surprised at how sturdy and rigid the shaft is - much more so than the very much more expensive Stihl Brushcutter I used for years. I like the adjustability of the blade depth and the power is impressive. You will get more run time with higher amp batteries - I have both 2.0 and 2.5 amp batteries, but if you have multiple batteries and chargers (from acquiring multiple tools) you will never be waiting for a battery to charge. If you have only purchased Greenworks tools, then you are golden. BUT HERE IS THE RUB IF YOU, LIKE ME, THOUGHT THEY WERE STRAIGHT-ACROSS COMPATIBLE WITH THE SAME LINE OF TOOLS THEY MANUFACTURED FOR LOWE'S UNDER THE KOBALT MONIKER AND BLUE COLOR, AS DIFFERENTIATED FROM THEIR STANDARD BRIGHT GREEN. One of the reasons I went ahead and committed to buying the Kobalt line of 80v yard tools was because Greenworks made them and I figured that it would be a long-lasting and stable design platform, being the same 80v system across two different brands. Then Lowe's dropped the 80v line. I was able to get a few more of their tools for great clearance prices and looked forward to switching over to the complete line of Greenworks 80v tools. was very happy to be able to order their edger because it's the exact same power system - just that all of my gear is Kobalt blue. AND HERE IS THE DEAL WITH THAT: They are different. The Kobalt 80v battery will not fit/slide into the Greenworks 80v battery compartment/housing (*as manufactured). - I guess I shouldn't have been surprised - and it could have been Lowe's that required that the stuff made for them specifically would be incompatible. But since it's the same power system, I wondered what the difference was and if I could work-around their obstructionist corporate bs. What I discovered was that the battery compartment on the tools have two long molded channel-guides (male) that match the two long molded (female) channels in the batteries. The vertical placement of the bottom 'rail' in the tool/compartment is positioned in a slightly different spot between the Kobalt and Greenworks 'brands'. But this actually works, because I just used a hand chisel and removed the 'bottom' rail from the Greenworks tool/edger. WA-LA - EUREKA!!! It worked great! It's a great fit, the top rail is more than enough to hold the battery stably in position and the 'lock' mechanism functions perfectly! I am looking forward to buying more tools in the Greenworks 80 volt line without having to replace all of the Kobalt tools I already paid for AND ESPECIALLY the rediculously expensive batteries...

Great product that makes edging very fast
Size: 8" Edger New
Edging was quite a job because I had to do it with a hand tool. I have quite a few Greenwork tools, so I decided to purchase the edger. It works great and I am in general happy with it. The three downsides for me are that tool is quite heavy when it also has the battery in it, that the metal blade decreases in size rapidly because of the friction when edging near concrete, and that the wheel is in such a position that I have to bend substantially while the blade does not edge deep enough so that I have to lean the tool on the metal strip at the bottom of the tool.
