Ongoing Care: Only water when soil is dry. Do not overwater. Variegated plants need more sunlight than regular plants as they have less chlorophyll. Low light may cause plant to lose its variegation. Wipe leaves with a damp cloth when dusty. Rotate regularly. Watch for aphids, mealy bugs, mites, scale, thrips. Liquid feed. Mulch. Slow-release fertiliser annually or as needed. We recommend Campbells Rustica Plus Fertiliser.
Please note: If using fertiliser or liquid feed high in Nitrogen, only use small amounts as too much may cause the plant to lose its variegation.
