Andinia lappacea Culture

Successful cultivation of the fascinating Andinia lappacea. Here are some important cultural tips to ensure its thriving growth:

Light: Andinia lappacea prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the delicate leaves.

Temperature: Mimic its cool, mountainous habitat by providing daytime temperatures between 15-22°C (59-72°F) and cooler nights around 10-15°C (50-59°F).

Humidity: High humidity levels are crucial for healthy growth. Maintain humidity levels between 60-80% by using humidifiers or placing the plant on a tray filled with moist pebbles.

Watering: Keep the substrate consistently moist, but avoid overwatering. Allow the top layer of the substrate to dry slightly between waterings to prevent root rot.
