Care Essentials for Thriving Growth
Light: Bright, indirect light is essential to maintain vibrant mint variegation and support large leaf development. Insufficient light causes fading and reversion to green.
Water: Allow the top 5-7cm of soil to dry between waterings. Mint variegated sections are more sensitive to overwatering than fully green tissue.
Humidity: Prefers 65-80% humidity for optimal growth and to prevent leaf browning, especially on variegated sections.
Soil: Well-draining aroid mix with generous orchid bark, perlite, and coco coir. Excellent drainage protects sensitive variegated tissue.
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 mint variegation.
Pruning: Remove any fully green growth promptly to prevent reversion and maintain mint variegation.
