All the Details You Need to Know

The Story Behind This Plant

Native to the tropical rainforests of South America, particularly Peru, Fittonia Skeleton thrives under the forest canopy, making it well-suited for indoor conditions with high humidity and indirect light.

How to Keep It Happy
  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate low light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent leaf burn.
  • Water: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top inch feels dry, and avoid letting it dry out completely.
  • Humidity: Thrives in high humidity; mist the leaves regularly or place the plant in a terrarium for ideal conditions.
  • Soil: Use a rich, well-draining potting mix with added peat moss to retain moisture.
