Sun Requirements ▾

Prefers bright, indirect light. Think near a north or east-facing window, or behind a sheer curtain in a sunnier spot. Avoid direct sun, which can scorch the delicate foliage. Low light will lead to slow growth and faded variegation, so aim for well-lit but gentle conditions.

Watering Instructions ▾

Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil feel dry. Keep the soil evenly moist but not soggy. Xanthosoma lindenii does not tolerate drying out completely—it will start to wilt and crisp quickly if neglected. In winter, reduce watering slightly as growth slows.

Care Tips ▾

Loves high humidity—ideally over 60%. If your air is dry, consider a humidifier, pebble tray, or regular misting. Use a well-draining aroid mix with components like peat, perlite, and bark. Prefers temperatures between 18–26°C (65–78°F). Keep it away from cold drafts and sudden temperature drops. Fertilize monthly during the growing season (spring/summer) with a diluted, balanced fertilizer.
