Intricate mosaic foliage for indoor color
Fine, dark green lines form a striking network across each bright green leaf, giving this plant a distinctive, almost hand-drawn appearance. Its upright, leafy growth adds texture and color without taking over a room.
A great indoor plant with a unique leaf pattern, it thrives in bright, indirect light and fits well on tabletops, plant stands, or in mixed houseplant displays. It also appreciates humidity, making it a good choice for kitchens and bathrooms with suitable light.
Planting & Care
1. Planting: Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Choose a container with drainage holes and use a loose, well-draining indoor potting mix. Place it in bright, indirect light away from direct sun, cold drafts, and heating vents.
2. Watering: Keep the soil lightly and consistently moist, but never waterlogged. Water when the top inch feels slightly dry, and empty any excess from the saucer. Filtered, distilled, or rainwater can help prevent brown leaf edges.
3. Pruning: Remove yellow, brown, or damaged leaves at the base with clean scissors. Regularly wiping the foliage with a damp cloth helps keep its detailed pattern visible.
4. Fertilizing: Apply a balanced liquid houseplant fertilizer at half strength about once a month during spring and summer. Reduce or stop feeding during fall and winter.
