Hawaiian Ti Plant Care Guide

Light Requirements

Bright, indirect sunlight is ideal. Too much direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, while too little light can dull their vibrant colors. Learn more about light requirements.

Watering Needs

Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Avoid letting the plant sit in standing water.

Soil Preferences

Use a well-draining, peat-based potting mix. Adding perlite or sand can improve drainage. Shop Indoor Potting Mix

Temperature & Humidity

The Hawaiian Ti Plant prefers warm temperatures (65–85°F) and high humidity. Mist the leaves regularly or use a humidifier to maintain moisture in dry environments.

Fertilization

Feed monthly during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer. Reduce feeding in fall and winter. Explore Natural Fertilizers

Pruning & Maintenance

Trim any yellow or damaged leaves to encourage new growth. Wipe the leaves with a damp cloth to keep them dust-free and shiny.

Propagation Tips

Stem Cuttings

Propagate by cutting a healthy stem and placing it in water or moist soil until roots develop.

Division

Divide the plant during repotting by separating rooted clumps and replanting them in fresh soil.

FAQs

How often should I water my Hawaiian Ti Plant?

Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, but avoid letting the soil completely dry out.

Why are the leaves turning brown?

Brown leaf tips often result from low humidity or fluoride in tap water. Use filtered or distilled water and increase humidity.

Can the Hawaiian Ti Plant grow in low light?

While it can survive in low light, the colors will be more vibrant in bright, indirect light.
