£2.99
- Are evergreen perennials forming a mat of rooting stems to 15cm tall, bearing broadly elliptic leaves to 10cm long, deep olive-green with pink veins.
- Sold in 6cm nursery pot
- Light: Low to medium light. Avoid direct sunlight, which may cause shriveled leaves. Nerve plant grows well under a grow light.
- Water: Keep soil constantly moist. Nerve plant will collapse if it dries out. Yellow leaves on this plant indicate too much water or poor drainage. Fittonia needs moisture at all times, but it won't tolerate soggy soil. Cut off yellow leaves and allow soil to dry slightly between waterings.
- Humidity: High humidity (around 60-70% relative humidity). Nerve plant grows well in the humid environment of a wardian case or a terrarium. Dry air will cause shriveled leaves.
- Additional care advice: eat-based mix with added perlite, such as African violet potting mix is ideal.
