Know before you buy
This plant prefers bright, indirect light. Too much direct sun can scorch the leaves, while too little light may cause the pink veining to fade and the stems to become leggy.
Not at all. It is considered low-maintenance, though it does prefer consistent moisture and high humidity. It will often 'faint' or droop when it needs water, acting as a helpful visual cue that it is time for a drink.
Yes, the Fittonia 'Pink' is an excellent choice for terrariums. It thrives in the high-humidity, enclosed environment that terrariums provide, and its spreading habit makes it a great ground cover.
Your plant arrives established in a 4-inch pot, meaning it is healthy and well-rooted. While it is ready to display immediately, it will continue to spread and grow over time.
Not at all. While the Fittonia is primarily grown for its striking foliage, it is natural for the plant to produce small, white flowers when it is happy and well-cared for.
