Their pedate leaves show birds'-foot-like fronds with oodles of white variegation, contrasting with the mid-green chlorophyll-filled parts of the glossy leaves. It is a little more high maintenance than most philodendrons due to the high level of variegation; it needs more light to compensate for the white areas but can still scorch in harsh direct sun, so you'll need to find the right balance in your home. A standout addition to your houseplant collection, choose this gorgeous plant to add an unusual hint of ghostly pallor to your luch indoor jungle.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eScientific Name\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePhilodendron squamiferum\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e x \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003epedatum \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e'Florida Ghost' (tree-hugger: scale-bearing species crossed with pedate-leaved species, cultivar: Florida ghost)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis plant is a hybrid between P. squamiferum and P. pedatum.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Name\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003ePhilodendron Florida Ghost, White Ghost Philodendron\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e\u003c!--td {border: 1px solid #cccccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e\u003c!--td {border: 1px solid #cccccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e\u003c!--td {border: 1px solid #cccccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOrigin\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eThis plant grows natively in tropical forests of South and Central America.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLight\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eBright indirect light is still the best level of light for this plant, but it can benefit from a splash of morning of evening sun due to the high level of variegation.
