From the \u003cem\u003eFlorida Beauty\u003c\/em\u003e side comes the multi-lobed, deeply dissected leaf form and the characteristic reddish, textured petioles with serrated edges. From \u003cem\u003eMayoi\u003c\/em\u003e comes a refined elegance — narrower, more graceful lobing and a slightly lighter, more luminous green. The result is a hybrid with complex, sculptural foliage that evolves with each new leaf, making it endlessly captivating for collectors and enthusiasts alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCare Guide\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eLight\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBright, indirect light produces the best growth and most defined leaf lobing. An east-facing window or a position set back from a bright south or west window is ideal. Avoid prolonged direct sun, which can bleach or scorch the foliage. Low light will slow growth and reduce leaf complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWater\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWater thoroughly when the top 1–2 inches of substrate are dry. This hybrid prefers consistent moisture but will not tolerate waterlogged roots. Ensure excellent drainage and never allow the pot to sit in standing water. Reduce watering frequency slightly during winter months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHumidity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThrives at 60–80% relative humidity. A humidifier is the most effective solution for maintaining consistent levels. Pebble trays and grouping with other tropicals can supplement. Keep away from heating vents, air conditioners, and cold drafts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTemperature\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrefers 65–85°F (18–29°C). Protect from temperatures below 55°F (13°C). Not frost tolerant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSubstrate\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA chunky, well-aerated aroid mix is ideal: orchid bark, perlite, and a small amount of coco coir or sphagnum moss. Excellent drainage and root aeration are key to preventing rot and encouraging vigorous growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFertilizer\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeed with a balanced liquid fertilizer at half strength every 3–4 weeks during the growing season (spring through early fall). Avoid over-fertilizing, which can cause tip burn and salt buildup in the substrate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSupport\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a climbing Philodendron, this hybrid benefits from a moss pole, coco coir totem, or trellis. Vertical support encourages larger, more complex leaf development — a hallmark of both parent species at maturity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eRepotting\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRepot every 1–2 years or when roots become pot-bound. Select a container only 1–2 inches larger than the current root ball to minimize overwatering risk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eToxicity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToxic to pets and humans if ingested. Keep out of reach of children and animals.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Leaf and Reef","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47456616513707,"sku":"4458507","price":135.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0786\/5617\/6299\/files\/89CA6A8E-52AA-4958-87E7-B6BC88703E43.jpg?v=1785273269","url":"https:\/\/leafandreefplants.com\/products\/philodendron-florida-beauty-x-mayoi","provider":"Leaf and Reef","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
