Plant Description
Native to Japan and Taiwan, the Cast Iron Plant thrives in low to moderate light and well-draining soil. It is highly tolerant of neglect and can withstand a range of growing conditions, including poor light, irregular watering, and temperature fluctuations. This plant requires minimal care and benefits from occasional feeding with a balanced fertilizer. Its durability and attractive foliage make it a favorite among indoor plant enthusiasts.
Plant Care
Watering
Water your plant once a week or when the soil starts to feel slightly dry on the surface. Keep the soil consistently moist, but be careful not to overwater, as this can cause brown spots and leaf drop. If the leaves become curly or dry, it's a sign that the plant needs water. It's best to water your plant in the early morning or late evening when the temperatures are cooler. Always check the soil before watering.
Light
Provide bright indoor light or indirect sunlight for about 6 to 8 hours a day.
Temperature
Maintain temperatures between 18°C and 24°C. Avoid exposing the plant to drafts, as these can cause undesirable temperature fluctuations. Mist the plant occasionally, about twice a week, to help maintain optimal humidity levels.
Fertilizer
Apply liquid fertiliser every 15 days when the plant is actively growing. For best results, use Folikraft ready-to-use Indoor Plant Food.
