Know before you buy
This plant requires bright, indirect light to keep its variegated leaves vibrant. Direct sunlight will scorch the foliage, while too little light may cause the colors to fade to a dull green.
You can increase humidity by placing the plant on a pebble tray filled with water, grouping it with other houseplants, or using a humidifier nearby. Misting is often insufficient on its own to meet this plant's specific needs.
No, this plant is not considered pet-safe. It is best kept in a location that is inaccessible to curious pets.
An intermediate rating indicates that the plant has specific environmental requirements, such as consistent moisture and high humidity, that must be met to prevent leaf browning. It is best suited for someone who is comfortable monitoring soil moisture and adjusting placement based on light levels.
No, the plant arrives as a rooted specimen in a 6-inch container and is ready to display as-is. We recommend waiting a few weeks to allow the plant to acclimate to your home's environment before considering a larger pot.
