Plant Care Guide for Fittonia《网纹草》
-
Light
Thrives in bright, indirect light but it can tolerate low-light conditions, making it suitable for indoor spaces. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch its leaves.
-
Soil
Prefers well-draining potting mix with some moisture-retaining elements like peat moss.
-
Water Requirement
Keep the soil/growing medium consistently moist but is sensitive to overwatering. Let the top inch of soil dry out between waterings, and avoid letting it dry out completely, as Fittonia is prone to wilting.
-
Temperature
Ideal growing temperatures are between 18℃ to 27℃. Kept it away from drafts or sudden temperature changes.
-
Humidity
This plant thrives in high humidity, making it perfect for bathrooms or areas where a humidifier is used. If the air is too dry, the leaves may curl or brown at the edges.
-
Fertilizer
Feed with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer every month during the growing season to encourage lush growth.
-
Caution
Pruning encourages the plant to branch out, making it look fuller and preventing it from becoming leggy. You can pinch back the tips of the stems to promote more side growth. Regularly trim away any dead, yellowing, or damaged leaves to keep the plant tidy.
