Glowing, Golden Variegation on an Iconic, Deeply-Lobed Philodendron

Philodendron Florida Beauty ‘Sunrise’ is a BWH Exclusive selection created through targeted selection and tissue culture for consistently warm, golden variegation. We call it “Sunrise” for the way its cream-to-yellow tones wash across glossy green leaves—like morning light. With signature deeply lobed foliage and climbing growth, it’s a true collector plant that sizes up beautifully on a pole or trellis.

What Makes It ‘Sunrise’?

Selected lineage: Chosen from Florida Beauty lines showing stable, warm aureate (golden) variegation.
Tissue culture refinement: Propagated to preserve the luminous “sunrise” palette and crisp patterning.
Distinct identity: Named to distinguish this golden-forward look from classic Florida Beauty variegation.
