Regular price £240.00
This product is not available for pickup at any store

Light
Bright, indirect light is best for this plant! It is used to the dappled light of a forest floor so can burn in direct sun.

Water
Allow the top third of the soil to dry out between waters; consistently moist soil will help this plant stay healthy, as long as the soil is not allowed to sit soggy!

Humidity
This plant loves humidity, like in its native rainforests! It will benefit from the introduction of a pebble tray and the occasional hose down of its leaves. Make sure it is not near a radiator which could dry out its foliage too quickly!

Soil
A soil designed for Monstera or Philodendrons will work well here even though the plant isn't a true Monstera; choose a mix that drains well but retains moisture, with components such as coir, bark and perlite. Repot every three years as the plant grows.

Food
Feed every three waters in the growing season, and reduce to every four in autumn and winter.

Temperature
Temperatures of about 15-28°C are great, make sure it doesn't drop below 12°C in winter.

Pet-safe
No, this plant is toxic to pets and small humans.

Sprouts Top Tips
If your Rhaphidophora is in a shadier spot, it will need watering much less. Keep an eye out for overwatering symptoms like rapidly yellowing leaves or mould growing on the soil; water less or move to a brighter location to help this!
