🌞 Light & Placement
Thrives in bright, indirect light to maintain its pink variegation. Avoid direct sun, which can scorch leaves. Ideal for bright shelves, greenhouse cabinets, or near east-facing windows.
💧 Water & Humidity
Allow the top 2–3 cm of soil to dry before watering. Prefers moderate to high humidity (50–70%); mist occasionally to keep foliage vibrant and healthy.
🪴 Soil & Potting
Use a well-draining aroid mix rich in orchid bark, perlite, and coco coir. Repot every 1–2 years in spring when roots fill the baby pot to support continued healthy growth.
🐾 Toxicity & Safety
Toxic if ingested by pets or humans due to calcium oxalate crystals. Keep away from cats, dogs, and small children.
🌱 Growth & Propagation
Moderate grower. Propagate via stem cuttings with at least one pink-variegated node in water or sphagnum moss once mature enough, ideally in spring or summer.
📆 Seasonal & Special Care
Rotate regularly for even growth and variegation. Wipe leaves monthly to remove dust and enhance their shine. Reduce watering slightly in winter as growth slows naturally.
🐛 Common Issues
Low light may reduce variegation. Overwatering can cause root rot. Watch for spider mites or thrips; treat infestations promptly with neem oil.
