Massive Potential: Can produce leaves exceeding 60cm with proper support and care
-
Collector's Favorite: Highly sought-after for its perfect balance of rarity, beauty, and stability
Care Essentials for Thriving Growth
Light: Bright, indirect light is essential to maintain vibrant variegation and support large leaf development. Insufficient light causes smaller leaves and faded variegation.
Water: Allow the top 5-7cm of soil to dry between waterings. More forgiving than white variegated forms but still requires good drainage.
Humidity: Prefers 60-75% humidity for optimal growth and to prevent leaf browning, especially on variegated sections.
Soil: Well-draining aroid mix with orchid bark, perlite, and coco coir for healthy root development and aeration.
Temperature: Thrives in 18-27°C (65-80°F). Protect from cold drafts and temperature fluctuations.
Support: Provide a sturdy moss pole or trellis to encourage upward growth and larger, more fenestrated leaves.
Feeding: Monthly feeding during growing season with balanced liquid fertilizer supports vigorous growth and vibrant variegation.
Maintenance: Wipe leaves occasionally to showcase the beautiful variegation patterns and maintain their natural sheen.
