Care
Light
• Prefers bright indirect light to maintain the intensity of leaf colors.
• Its tolerance for lower light makes it ideal for less brightly lit indoor spaces, but variegated colors may become less vibrant.
• Avoid direct sunlight, which can burn the leaves.
Temperature
• It grows best at temperatures between 18-27°C.
• It is sensitive to cold and does not tolerate temperatures below 15°C.
• Avoid cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.
Humidity
• Prefers a moderate to high humidity level.
• In dry spaces, mist the leaves periodically with water or use a humidifier.
• Avoid overwatering the leaves to prevent spots or mold.
Watering
• Keep the soil slightly moist but not soggy.
• Water the plant when the top layer of soil feels dry to the touch.
• Make sure the pot has good drainage to prevent water buildup and root rot.
Soil
• Use a well-draining soil mix, such as a potting mix for houseplants combined with perlite or peat to improve drainage and aeration.
Fertilizing
• Fertilize the plant once a month during the active growth period (spring and summer) with a balanced, liquid fertilizer for foliage plants.
• During winter, reduce fertilizing as the plant goes dormant.
Repotting
• Repot the plant every 1-2 years or when the roots fill the pot.
• Choose a new pot with drainage holes and use fresh soil.
Pruning and maintenance
• Remove dry or damaged leaves to maintain a neat appearance.
• Pruning is rarely needed, as the plant grows slowly.
Common issues
• Yellowing leaves: Can be caused by overwatering or underwatering.
• Soft leaves: Often indicate root problems caused by stagnant water.
• Pests: It can be affected by scale insects, aphids, or red spider mites. Inspect the plant regularly and treat with a suitable insecticide if necessary.
Height with pot included approx. 20 cm
Young leaves may sometimes have less noticeable variegation, but this becomes clearer as the leaf matures.
Decorative pot not included in the price.
