Care Information:
Light: Bright, indirect light is essential for maintaining vibrant mint variegation and encouraging proper fenestration development. More light needed than non-variegated forms but avoid direct sunlight which can scorch the variegated leaves.
Water: Water when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Maintain consistent moisture without waterlogging, and reduce watering during winter months.
Humidity: Optimal humidity ranges from 60-80%, with a minimum of 50%. Higher humidity encourages better leaf development and maintains variegation intensity.
Temperature: Ideal temperature range is 18-27°C, with a minimum of 15°C. Protect from cold drafts and maintain stable temperatures for best results.
Soil: Plant in
Aroid Mix for optimal drainage and root health.
Support: Climbing growth habit benefits from sturdy moss pole or trellis support. Slower growth than non-variegated forms. Remove any reverting solid green growth promptly to maintain variegation.
Fertiliser: Fertilise regularly with
GT Foliage during the growing season, reducing feeding in winter.
Toxicity: This plant is toxic if consumed, so please keep away from children and pets
