Fittonia
Phytosanitary Certificate
Common Name : MOSAIC PLANT
Botanical Name : Fittonia albivenis Verschaffeltii
The beautiful patterns on the foliage of the mosaic plant make a striking feature. It is small enough for any room, but demands high humidity so it is best kept in a bathroom, kitchen, or terrarium. The dark or pale green leaves have bright pink veins and make a good match for the aluminium plant (Pilea cadierei), which is also small and requires similar conditions

Keep the compost moist year-round but avoid waterlogging – yellow leaves can indicate overwatering. Mist the plant daily and place on a tray of damp pebbles, or install a humidifier |
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
