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'.

Oh My Anna Has Done It AGAIN
Format: Kindle
I have been a hard core Anna Stone fan from the first book I read by her...Behind Closed Doors....then I picked up Being Hers the first of the Irresistible Bound series! I fell in love with Vanessa and Mel so deeply I couldn't stop falling deeper in the world that Anna created with her Liliths Den ladies! I devoured her next Mistresses Series even more so then the first. When she told me she was moving to LA with a new set of Ladies I was excited to see what she was going to do and I have to say Club Velvet is even more alluring then Liliths Den and this new set of Ladies I love them all already!!! Simone is even more alluring then Camilla was for me and I fell hard for Camilla! I love that she was straight to protective with Jade from the start but not overly so. Simone is sweet and demanding and just perfection rolled into the perfect package and just what Jade needed! Both were afraid of falling and giving up that trust and vulnerability of falling in love because of past wrongs and being shown how devastating it can be when its given to the wrong person. The way they handled it just broke my heart for the slight misunderstanding that could have been avoided by trusting each other. But once again Anna has brought fourth just the right conflict for our ladies to get through while also building their characters to a level of complete understanding that only she can do. I love Jade and Simone and can't wait for hopefully Valerie with her Nanny next **fingers crossed** and hopefully even a wonderfully meet up with Vanessa and Mel! Both Olivia and Elle also excite me to learn more of them!

Writing was decent, characters were decent, the plot was decent, and the spice was excellent
Format: Kindle
TL;DR: 3 stars, writing was decent, characters were decent, the plot was decent, and the spice was excellent. This is the second book I have read by Stone. I thought it was pretty mediocre with everything except the spice. The writing was okay, it wasn’t terribly descriptive or informative. I really hate how Stone constantly has the characters ask questions in their heads after a conversation. I don’t think that is a very good writing mechanism, and she does it frequently. The characters were fine. I don’t think they developed all that well. Jade seemed to work through her issues with her predatory professor, but it still seemed like she was a bit harsh afterward. Simone seemed to be pretty much the same all the way through. She was just less restrained at the end. The plot was fine, it wasn’t anything to call home about. It just seemed like a poorly developed mechanism to get the MCs together. The third act breakup was terrible. If you think someone is the love of your life, and they do something wrong that upsets you, then you don’t just run away. You work on it with them if they are willing. Simone was extremely apologetic and wanted to work through it was Jade, but Jade walked away. I honestly think that Jade was the one that should have tried to mend it because she was the one who walked away after Simone tried to work it out. The spice was very good in my opinion. I love a book with positive BDSM material. This book did not disappoint in that regard. The aftercare was also phenomenal. Overall, I would recommend this book if you want spice with a low plot line and character development.

Not a bad story
Format: Kindle
I liked it. It was of course a lesbian romance, which I have no issues with. I thought for the most part the story was well written. One problem I did have was I can't understand why Jade can tell Simone about her past with Phillippa, but has a problem telling Simone she's going to meet her to basically tell Phillippa off. That to me doesn't make much sense. I mean she could have told Simone she was meeting her and that it was something she had to do by herself so she could move on. I just had a problem with it.

simply amazing
Format: Kindle
The intimacy, the sapphic love, the connections across all of Anna Stones books is the perfect cocktail for an amazing read. Full of ups and downs and highlighting the raw beautiful power of women and bdsm in a positive manner that’s holds nothing but respect for all consenting parties. Again amazing.
