Foliage

Features stunning, oval-shaped leaves that are thin and almost translucent. The pale green leaf surface is adorned with a complex pattern of thin lines and larger ovals in a deep green, creating a 'leaf within a leaf' effect. This pattern is mirrored in reddish-purple on the undersides.

Flowering Period & Fruit

Flowers are small and rarely seen in an indoor environment; this plant is cultivated for its spectacular, feather-like foliage.

Sun Tolerance

Requires bright, indirect light. Keep out of direct sunlight, which will quickly fade the colors and burn the very delicate leaves.

Maintenance

Moderate to High. Very high humidity is essential to prevent the thin leaves from developing crispy edges. Watering with distilled, filtered, or rainwater is a must. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.

Root System

A fine, fibrous root system growing from rhizomes. Requires a light, airy potting mix that holds moisture well without becoming soggy.
