Know before you buy
This plant requires bright, indirect light to thrive and keep its variegation vibrant. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves, or deep shade, which may cause the variegation to fade.
The Xanthosoma Lindenii is classified as an intermediate-level plant. It requires consistent attention to temperature and moisture levels, making it better suited for those who already have some experience with tropical houseplants.
Water your plant when the top layer of soil feels dry to the touch, which is typically once a week. Be careful not to let the soil become completely bone-dry or waterlogged, as this plant prefers consistent, moderate moisture.
No, this plant is toxic to pets if ingested. We recommend placing it in a location that is completely inaccessible to cats and dogs, such as a high shelf or a room they do not frequent.
This plant prefers warm environments and thrives in temperatures between 65°F and 85°F. Keep it away from cold drafts, air conditioning vents, or heaters to prevent stress.
