Plant Care Guide for Dipteracanthus Elastica《黑美人》

Light
Thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate partial shade. In regions with very hot weather, it benefits from some afternoon shade to prevent leaf scorching.
Soil
Prefers well-draining growing medium rich in organic matter.
Water Requirement
Prefers consistently moist soil, but it should not be waterlogged. Water the plant regularly, especially during dry periods.
Temperature
Ideal growing temperatures are between 18℃ to 29℃. It can tolerate occasional dips in temperature but should be protected from drafts and sudden cold.
Humidity
As a plant native to tropical regions, it benefits from higher humidity levels.
Fertilizer
Fertilise lightly during the growing season.
Caution
To maintain its compact shape and prevent legginess, pinch back the tips of the stems periodically. Regular pruning also encourages denser growth and helps the plant maintain its attractive, ground-covering habit.
