All the Details You Need to Know
The Story Behind This Plant
Native to the tropical regions of Southeast Asia, Lipstick Plant Black Pagoda grows naturally as an epiphyte, clinging to trees and absorbing moisture from the air, which is why it thrives indoors with high humidity.
How to Keep It Happy
- Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, which may scorch its leaves, and low light, which may reduce blooming.
- Water: Allow the top inch of soil to dry out before watering. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so ensure proper drainage.
- Humidity: Thrives in high humidity (50-70%). Use a humidifier or mist the leaves regularly.
- Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix enriched with perlite and orchid bark.
