POLKA DOT PLANT/ HOJAS PINTADAS

The polka dot plant is an attractive houseplant bursting with colour.  It is native to  South Africa, East Asia, and Madagascar. It  can grow up to a meter tall and wide. The leaves are spotted with white, pink  and green colours depending on the variety. 

​

Polka dot plants like bright, indirect light.  

​

They like the soil moist, but not soggy.  Water regularly, about once a week. 

​

As the plant grows and stretches out, trim it back to keep new growth fuller looking. 

​

Pot it in a well-draining  organic  soil mix.  Fertilize your plant once a month using an organice houseplant fertilizer. 

​

This plant is non-toxic to pets and people!
