🌱 Plant Description

Aspidistra elatior is a slow-growing, hardy evergreen perennial known for its tough, glossy foliage and ability to thrive in low-light conditions. It typically grows 60–90 cm tall indoors, with arching, lance-shaped leaves that form a dense, upright clump.

  • Leaves: Dark green, glossy, lance-shaped, 40–70 cm long; extremely durable.

  • Flowers: Small, purplish-brown flowers appear at the base of the plant near the soil; usually inconspicuous.

  • Growth Habit: Upright clumping plant; spreads slowly through rhizomes over time.

Watering

Water your plant once a week or when the soil starts to feel slightly dry on the surface. Keep the soil consistently moist, but be careful not to overwater, as this can cause brown spots and leaf drop. If the leaves become curly or dry, it's a sign that the plant needs water. It's best to water your plant in the early morning or late evening when the temperatures are cooler. Always check the soil before watering.

Light

Provide bright indoor light or indirect sunlight for about 6 to 8 hours a day.

Temperature

Maintain temperatures between 18°C and 24°C. Avoid exposing the plant to drafts, as these can cause undesirable temperature fluctuations. Mist the plant occasionally, about twice a week, to help maintain optimal humidity levels.

Fertilizer

Apply liquid fertiliser every 15 days when the plant is actively growing. For best results, use Folikraft ready-to-use Indoor Plant Food.
