Sun: Indirect

The Firefly Leopard Plant thrives in medium to bright indoor light. While it can handle lower light, the bold variegation and vibrant foliage colors are most vibrant when exposed to bright conditions.

Light: Medium - Bright

They enjoy some direct sun, but they'll also do well in bright, indirect light. It’s best to place your Firefly Leopard Plant where it can catch gentle morning sun or a couple of hours of soft afternoon light.

Water: When mostly dry

Water when the top 75% of the soil has dried out. Avoid letting it sit in excess water—overwatering can lead to root rot. Always empty the saucer if water collects underneath the pot.

Humidity: Any

This plant is fairly adaptable and will do fine in normal household humidity. However, it appreciates a bit more moisture in the air—occasional misting or placing it near a humidifier can help, especially in winter.

Pet Friendly: Caution

While not considered highly toxic, the Firefly Leopard Plant may cause mild irritation if ingested by pets. It’s best kept out of reach of curious cats and dogs.

Pro Tip

To encourage lush growth and strong variegation, rotate your Firefly Leopard Plant every couple of weeks so all sides receive even light. Clean the large leaves occasionally to keep them dust-free and able to absorb light efficiently.

Your Complete Guide to Pot Sizes: What Size Should You Choose?

When selecting a pot for your plant, it's important to find the right size. But with all the different options out there, how do you know which one is best? We're here to help!

MyGreenscape's pot sizes chart is a great resource for finding your perfect fit. Our easy-to-read chart takes out all the guesswork and helps you quickly choose the right size for your plant.

Smaller pots are best for seedlings or small plants just starting out. These tend to be shallow but wide, allowing enough room for the roots of the young plant but not too much where they get overcrowded. Medium-sized pots are ideal when your plant has grown from its infancy and is ready for more space. These are deeper and wider than small pots, so that it can accommodate larger root systems - making sure your plant gets enough nourishment while still giving it breathing room. Large pots are top choice if you have an established plant in need of lots of space - think trees and large shrubs! The spacious depth and width allow plenty of room for deep root systems without struggling for air or light.

No matter what size you choose, MyGreenscape has got you covered, with our pot sizes chart guaranteeing you find the perfect fit every time!
