Aspidistra Elatior - Cast Iron Plant
Aspidistra Elatior - Cast Iron Plant
This plant got the name cast iron plant for a good reason! This lush beauty is perfect for a shadier and cooler part of the house where little other plants would survive.
Plant Care
Light: This is a low-light to moderate-light plant and will do best without any direct sun scorching its leaves.
Watering: This drought-tolerant plant is perfect for travellers or forgetful plant parents. Water when the soil has dried out.
Temperature: Ideally, they want to be 16-24°C, but will tolerate as low as -2°C so this is a great choice for a cooler or drafty space.
Potting: A tolerant plant, it will do well with most mixes if it is not too moist. Our Airy Aroid mix is a good choice for this plant.
Hot tips: This plant likes to grow in spurts, so if it's not doing much, wait until spring or summer and watch it sprout!
Pet Friendly: YES
