Plant Care Instructions
- Light: Prefers bright, indirect light to support healthy growth and maintain attractive pink variegation. Avoid prolonged harsh direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves, especially the pink sections.
- Water: Allow the top 3–5 cm of soil to dry before watering thoroughly. Let excess moisture drain completely and avoid keeping the roots constantly wet.
- Soil: Use a loose, airy, well-draining aroid mix containing materials such as quality potting soil, orchid bark, and perlite.
- Humidity: Appreciates moderate to high humidity, ideally around 50% or higher, but can adapt to typical household conditions with consistent care and good air circulation.
- Temperature: Thrives at approximately 18–29°C. Protect from cold drafts and prolonged temperatures below 13°C.
- Fertilizer: Feed every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer with a balanced liquid houseplant fertilizer diluted according to label directions. Reduce feeding during slower winter growth.
- Maintenance: Wipe leaves gently when dusty and rotate the plant periodically for balanced light exposure. A moss pole or similar support can encourage larger, more mature foliage as the plant climbs.
- Pruning: Remove damaged or declining foliage with clean tools. Pruning may also be used to manage growth, but natural levels of pink variegation can vary from leaf to leaf.
- Repotting: Repot every 1–2 years or when roots become crowded, moving into a slightly larger container with excellent drainage.
Note: Pink variegation is naturally variable, so each plant may differ in color and pattern from the product image. Plant pot may also vary in design. Most plants come in a one-time-use plastic grower pot.
