The bright red, yellow, and green spear-shaped or lobed leaves of this potentially large shrub look best when set centre stage against a neutral backdrop. Not the easiest plant to grow, it demands high humidity and constant warmth – a bathroom would make an ideal home

PLANT CARE
 |
15–25°C (60–76°F) |
 |
Shaded Light |
 |
High Humidity |
 |
Keep the compost moist with tepid water from spring to autumn; allow the top to dry out betwee waterings in winter. Set it on a tray of damp pebbles, but do not mist the leaves |
ADDITIONAL CARE
If you notice a tip or edge burn often with a yellowish hue at the edge, especially on older leaves, it could be due to your tap water. To solve this, allow your tap water to stand overnight before watering so the chlorine and fluoride can evaporate. Remove any yellow leaves to keep your plant strong and growing. Do not use any shine products on the leaves, instead, clean leaves occasionally with a damp cloth
