Philodendron Florida Bronze is a rare hybrid known for its uniquely shaped, deeply lobed leaves that emerge with a bronze tint before maturing into deep green. Here’s how to care for it:
 
Light
Prefers bright, indirect light.
Can tolerate some lower light but may grow slower.
Avoid direct sun, which can scorch the leaves.
Watering
Water when the top 2 inches of soil feel dry.
Avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot.
Ensure the pot has good drainage.
Humidity & Temperature
Thrives in high humidity (above 60%).
Can adapt to average household humidity but benefits from occasional misting or a pebble tray.
Ideal temperature: 65–80°F (18–27°C).
Keep away from cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.
Soil
Use a well-draining, airy mix (such as peat, perlite, and orchid bark).
Aroid mixes work well for this plant.
Fertilizing
Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer (diluted to half strength) once a month during spring and summer.
Reduce feeding in fall and winter.
Pruning & Maintenance
Trim off any yellow or damaged leaves.
Can be trained with a moss pole or support to encourage upright growth.
Wipe leaves occasionally to remove dust.
Propagation
Propagate through stem cuttings with at least one node.
Root in water, sphagnum moss, or soil for best results.
Common Issues
Yellow leaves → Overwatering or poor drainage.
Brown tips → Low humidity or underwatering.
Leggy growth → Insufficient light.
