Plant Care
Light: Bright indirect light is best. The leaves will yellow with too much sun and with too low of light, the lovey red patterns in the leaves will fade. A north or east-facing window would be ideal.
Watering: This plant likes to have consistently moist soil, think moist, and not soaking wet.
Temperature: 18-25°C is ideal. These plants do not like sudden chills and prefer warm and humid conditions.
Potting: This plant needs a well-draining and moisture-retaining mix. Try our Airy Aroid mix. Ideally, this plant would do best in Leca or semi-hydroponics.
Hot tips: This plant would thrive in a cabinet to ensure high humidity and warm temperatures.
Pet Friendly: Mildly toxic to pets and humans
