Care Essentials for Thriving Growth
Light: Bright, indirect light is critical to maintain platinum variegation and support large leaf development. Insufficient light causes reversion; protect silvery sections from direct sun.
Water: Allow the top 5-7cm of soil to dry between waterings. Platinum variegated sections contain minimal chlorophyll and are extremely sensitive to overwatering.
Humidity: Thrives in 70-85% humidity. High humidity is essential for this rare mutation—invest in a quality humidifier for best results.
Soil: Exceptionally well-draining aroid mix with generous orchid bark, perlite, and coco coir. Excellent drainage is critical to protect sensitive mutated tissue.
Temperature: Prefers 18-26°C (65-78°F). Protect from temperature fluctuations and cold drafts which can stress delicate variegated tissue.
Support: Provide a sturdy, tall moss pole or trellis—essential for encouraging massive leaf development and optimal variegation expression.
Feeding: Light to moderate feeding during growing season with balanced liquid fertilizer. Avoid over-fertilizing which can reduce variegation.
Pruning: Remove any fully green growth immediately to prevent reversion and maintain platinum mutation.
