The Golden Mosaic is an evergreen perennial cultivar in the arrowroot family, Marantaceae. It produces fantastic foliage coloured vibrant green and lime green, the leaves appear on bamboo-like stems. It is a popular houseplant, grown for the leaves, but it's not the easiest to locate.
PLANT CARE :
- It likes bright indirect light - if it is in too shady a spot, its leaves will be less variegated. If there is too much light, the colors in the leaves fade.
- Keep soil evenly moist but never soggy. Allow top soil to dry between waterings. Golden Mosaic doesn't like cold or hard water. During the winter season, reduce watering. Using a Sustee Moisture Meter stick helps to figure out how much moisture is in the soil so you don’t under or overwater.
- It is more than happy living in normal room temperatures of between 16-24 degrees C.
- High humidity is very important for these plants. If the air is dry, place your Ctenanthe on a pebble tray filled with water. Be sure the plant is sitting on the pebbles and not in the water.
- To repot this plant, you will need around one pack of For My Plants potting mix for the most loved houseplants.
- Pet friendly.
Height of the plant - 20 cm. Diameter of the pot - 6 cm. Sustee size S.
