Philodendron 'Florida Ghost'
The Philodendron ‘Florida Ghost’ is proof that a plant does not need flowers to put on a very good show.
Its new leaves emerge in pale, ghostly shades that can range from creamy white to soft mint before gradually deepening into green as they mature. Paired with its distinctive lobed foliage, that color-changing growth gives the plant a layered look that keeps getting more interesting over time.
Florida Ghost is a climbing philodendron, so it will appreciate a trellis or moss pole as it grows. It is a beautiful choice for anyone who wants a collector-friendly plant that feels a little unusual without being overly intimidating to care for.
