HYBRID PHILODENDRON CUTTING Squamiferum x Pedatum Textured Red Petioles +HEAT

Description: Up for sale is a CUTTING of the unusual hybrid – Philodendron x 'Florida Compacta'. The last 5 photos are examples of the plant CUTTING at auction. - beautiful specimens with colored & textured petioles and a TON of NODES! (see last 5 photos) This Philo is a cross between Philodendron squamiferum (fuzzy red petioles) and Philodendron pedatum -aka quercifolium- (a good foliage producer with medium sized heavily scalloped leaves) The result of this cross is a Philodendron that has a "half fuzzy" petiole - (not as super textured as P. squamiferum, but about half that- what amounts to a roughened, bumpy texture- plus the red to pink coloration on the petiole) with a glossy heavily scalloped leaf that is of a "medium" size- getting up to about 18" long or so- smaller and more deeply scalloped than P. squamiferum- as well as a bit more dark green and rigid. This one can grow at a nice quick pace- faster than P. squamiferum, and since it produces alot of leaves quickly, it can cover a totem in no time. I've grown it outdoors here in Central Florida- mine have gotten down to about 36 degrees so far without any issue, and I give it a good dose of light, only protecting it from the hard afternoon sun with some tree canopy shade. I've also grown it indoors near a sunny window and it has done very well for me. I highly recommend this one- it definitely has its own unique qualities and I really like the rough textured and colored petioles. I've been able to grown some nice larger specimens on a totem that were very lush and full- it is also excellent in a hanging basket.
