Plant Care
Plant Care
Position / Light:
Generally low maintenance, this plant will appreciate a good amount of indirect, bright light. The more light, the quicker it will grow, but direct sunlight will scorch its leaves so is best avoided, particularly in the afternoon. Great as a trailing plant, or give it something to climb.
Care / Water:
Water generously whenever the top 2cm of soil completely dries out. When it's time, we recommend placing it outside (or in the sink), giving it a good drench, then leaving time for all the residual water to drain through. For this reason you should always keep this species in a pot with adequate drainage holes, i.e., place the plastic nursery pot inside any decorative pot and remove for watering. For optimal growth, apply liquid fertiliser once a month during spring and summer.

Ceramic Hangers - Made from durable stoneware, waterproof and with a stylish and strong, leather hanging cord. Nowhere to hang it? Just take the cord off and these will look just as nice perched on a shelf or windowsill. No drainage hole.
Footed Pot - These pots have a beautifully polished, stone-like texture and provide the perfect propped-up look for your mini plants. No drainage hole.

I ordered a plant for my friend's birthday and was so pleasantly surprised with the thought that went behind everything. Not only was the delivery super quick, but it was delivered with the cutest card and the message was personally handwritten too! I am so glad that I chose Backyard Botanist and couldn't recommend it enough! Thank you so much.
