Variegated Saxifraga Stolonifera House Plant 6cm Pot
Variegated Saxifraga Stolonifera, also known as Strawberry Begonia, is a beautiful trailing houseplant with variegated leaves that are green and white in color, and it produces small, delicate pink or white flowers.
Here are some tips for caring for your Variegated Saxifraga Stolonifera:
-
Light: This plant prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, as this can scorch the leaves.
-
Water: Keep the soil consistently moist, but not waterlogged. Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch, and allow any excess water to drain away. It's important to avoid letting the plant dry out completely, as this can cause the leaves to wilt and die.
-
Humidity: Variegated Saxifraga Stolonifera prefers high humidity, so consider placing a humidifier nearby or grouping it with other plants to create a more humid environment. You can also mist the leaves regularly to increase humidity.
-
Temperature: Keep Variegated Saxifraga Stolonifera in a warm location with temperatures between 65°F and 75°F (18°C and 24°C). Avoid exposing it to cold drafts or sudden temperature changes.
-
Soil: Variegated Saxifraga Stolonifera prefers well-draining soil that is rich in organic matter. You can use a mixture of peat moss, perlite, and vermiculite to create a suitable soil mix.
-
Fertilizer: Feed your Variegated Saxifraga Stolonifera with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every two weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).
-
Pruning: You can prune your Variegated Saxifraga Stolonifera to control its size and shape, as well as to promote bushier growth. Use clean, sharp scissors or pruning shears to make cuts just above a leaf node.
By following these care tips, you can help your Variegated Saxifraga Stolonifera thrive and enjoy its beautiful variegated leaves and delicate flowers for years to come.
